Surely your pet has “helped” you watch football more than once, or caught the hand of a woman from a cooking show who was whipping an omelette. Did you know that there are not only films for adults and children, but also videos for cats with fish, mice, and also games?!
What is a cat video and where can you buy a ticket to an entertaining movie show?
A video for cats assumes the presence in the frame of birds, fish, mice, squirrels that move, flutter, swim and run. Such videos are both entertainment for the cat and a kind of simulator that helps the pet develop and maintain the hunting skills inherent in nature.
A pet can watch a screensaver for cats online in the comfort of their own home on a computer monitor, tablet screen or, for cats with good eyesight, on a mobile phone. To watch, you need to go to YouTube or use the selection that we made for you.

Computer and mobile games for cats: features
Most cat games are based on colorful characters moving around the screen. Usually animation is performed in the form of a variety of fish, mice, bugs and bright spots. Watching them, the playful kitten will probably want to hunt and try to catch moving objects.
It is important to note that cats see the world and all objects in it not as bright as humans. This is caused by a different set of receptors on the retina. Therefore, instead of the above characters, cats follow faded and blurry spots moving across the screen. They don't pay attention to small details. In this case, cat's eyes perceive images at a speed of 40 frames per second. Therefore, they see all videos made for a person in slow motion.
Cats see colors dimmer than humans, but their vision is not black and white, as people once thought
My cat is ten years old. About two years ago, he still showed interest in color pictures on the screen, but did not play any games, and certainly did not jump on painted birds. Surely the fact is that he is used to real toys: mice, bows and balls. Such methods of entertainment still interest him. A friend's cat is less picky in this regard. From an early age, he is interested in flickering pictures on TV, on a computer screen, and even in mirror images of himself. Therefore, he immediately showed interest in playing games on the tablet. Although it only lasted for a few minutes, it was more a matter of his age-related restlessness.

The cult series has existed since the 40s of the last century. Visual humor, just the right amount of satire and vibrant musical accompaniment have made it a favorite of audiences around the world. In addition to 193 short episodes, more than 10 full-length films about a cat and a mouse were created. And in 2022, Warner Bros. releases a film featuring hand-drawn characters.

Another hit of Soviet animation in our selection. Of course, this series is very different from Western animated films, which is of particular interest to the modern viewer. “A Kitten Named Woof” teaches how to be friends, be honest, and also take care of the weak and defenseless.

“Leopold” has become a true classic of Russian animation, and some quotes from the animated series have turned into catchphrases. Interestingly, different production methods were used during its creation. The first episodes of the series were shot using the transfer technique, and the subsequent ones were drawn.
In 2015, on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of Anatoly Reznikov, the director of the cartoon, a sequel was filmed - “The New Adventures of Leopold the Cat.” The relaunch of everyone’s favorite project took place on the Mult channel.

Kotya and Katya go on adventures, learn something new about this world and return to their parents with new knowledge.
This series is an infrequent example of cooperation between Russian and Western animators. The author of the idea and director is our compatriot Vladimir Ponomarev, known for the TV series Mr. Freeman. And the script is developed by foreign masters - screenwriters of “Gummi Bears”, “Sesame Street” and other popular projects.
Games for cats online
To entertain your cat, it is not necessary to download and install special applications. Nowadays there are many games that are launched online. That is, to use them you only need an Internet connection. The essence of most online games is the same as downloadable applications. The cat needs to hunt and catch moving targets.
One successful example of such games is Pull N' Play. A funny character from this game makes pleasant sounds and quickly moves across the screen. You can control his jumps using the mouse, thereby adjusting the speed of his movement and the frequency of the squeaks made.
You can also try to interest cats with flash games such as Playful Kitten. Since computer monitors often do not have a touch surface, and the cat can only observe what is happening, he may be interested in a meowing fluffy catching a ball of thread.
If you want to entertain your pet, make sure that the gadget’s screen is covered with a protective film.
What is this?
It's no secret that cats are very playful and are always interested in exploring the world around them.
Until recently, owners entertained them with the help of candy wrappers tied to a string, but now almost every child has at their disposal a tablet, smartphone or computer, on the screen of which you can find more interesting entertainment even for pets.
Games for cats, which are, in fact, an ordinary video with mice, fish, and birds present in it, are gaining quite a lot of popularity. They all perform many movements (running, swimming, flying or jumping), sometimes so quickly that it is quite problematic to keep track of them.
When caring for a cat, it will be useful for you to learn more about how to accustom a cat to the litter box, how to wash it in the bathroom without scratches and abrasions, how to trim a cat’s claws yourself, what diseases cats suffer from, how to mate cats correctly and what a furminator is needed for.
For your home hunter, such videos are a kind of simulator, because in the absence of real mice, they remind him of the instincts inherent in nature.
If your pet has good eyesight, then he will enthusiastically watch the actions on the smartphone screen, but most often cats react to a larger image, that is, a video displayed on the monitor screen of a desktop computer, laptop or tablet.
All that is required from the owner is to download several of the most popular games for your cat or periodically play them online (for example, with a running mouse or a swimming fish). Very soon you will be able to determine your pet's favorite video.
Important! Don’t try to keep track of everything that’s happening on the screen, because unlike a cat’s visual organs, your eyes will begin to experience strain from the constantly flashing picture.
Mice and rodents
Small squeaking creatures can interest many cats, so you can try showing your pets a video of these rodents.
Video with one mouse
If your cat is very active and one mouse is not enough for him, use this video. The number of mice in it varies from one to three. Rodents constantly move, crawl behind the screen and squeak.
Video with three mice
An alternative to mice can be active squirrels, which are present in large numbers in the next video.
Video with squirrels
Undersea world
If you do not have the opportunity to install a real aquarium at home, then show your cat the fish using a computer or tablet. Videos of colorful sea creatures moving to calm music will surely appeal to voyeuristic cats who are too passive to hunt.
Video with aquarium fish
The underwater life of fish may interest your cat. Try experimenting with the color scheme of the video, the shooting angle and the scale at which the fish are shown.
Video with large fish
Video with laser
And how can we not mention the good old laser, so beloved by cats?! Laser videos for cats may not be as sophisticated as videos with fish or birds, but that doesn't detract from their fun for furbabies. As they say: “Simplicity is not a sin”:
Another video for cats with a laser (burning dot)
If you're not too concerned about loading your cat with beautiful, thought-provoking content, here's another funnier cat video called Catch the Turkey. An animated video five minutes long will amuse a cat in this way, don’t even doubt it:
Read how to make toys for cats with your own hands.
Cat games on mobile or tablet are as popular as videos.
Birds and nature
Of course, many cats like birds. Chirping and loudly chirping creatures can awaken the hunting instincts of even the most domesticated animals. Show your pet games of feathered creatures and watch his reaction. Perhaps these are the films that will interest your cat.
Video of chirping birds
The cat sat on my lap the entire time I was selecting a video for this article. In response to many movements on the screen, he only lazily raised his head and continued to doze, but the next video with birds feeding on the bridge really interested him. The cat stood up and watched with interest what was happening in the video for more than ten minutes.

Movies and cartoons for cats: features
The main feature of films and cartoons for cats is the presence of a plot in them. The cat is not only shown various rodents, birds, fish and other living creatures, as in the videos described above, but also told some kind of story in the process. Such films and cartoons will be interesting not only for animals, but also for their owners. If your cat has ever seen an aquarium or watched birds through the window, then he will also like this pastime. Try different options, as cats like different videos depending on their personality and habits. Some will appreciate the smooth movements of colorful fish, others will appreciate the frisky squirrels, and still others will enjoy the jumping and chirping birds. Experiment and you will probably be able to find interesting videos for your pet.
Films about animals can not only entertain a cat, but also support the hunter skills inherent in him by nature
Games for cats on Android
Applications for phones and tablets are good because, thanks to the touch screen, the animal can independently catch a mouse or other prey. Most developers have made applications for cats multi-level. Thanks to this, the difficulty of each new stage in the game increases, which helps to develop a reaction and prevent the cat from losing interest in what is happening on the screen. Of course, the larger the screen of your gadget, the more convenient it will be for your pet to play.
Crazy Cat
The main feature of this game is the possibility of playing together. If you have an Android and a tablet with Bluetooth functionality, you will be able to control the game characters on one device, while the cat will catch them on the other. When a character is caught by a cat, points are awarded.
The game uses lizards, butterflies and mice with funny animations as bait for the cat.
Cat Alone
The idea of the game is extremely simple: movable objects appear on the screen that the cat needs to catch. The bait used to attract the animal may look like a laser pointer, fly, butterfly, finger, cockroach or ladybug. After trying all the options, you can find the one that will be more interesting for your pet.
Many cats and their owners liked this game, so the developers released a new version with a mouse, a spider and other characters
Electronic cat toy CAT ALONE. ADVANTAGES: Attracts attention, albeit not for long DISADVANTAGES: Over time, even a cat can get bored There were mice running and squeaking, creepy spiders crawling, buzzing flies flying, a feather and a laser beam were moving around all the corners and sides of the screen... What was there for the cat’s pleasure . But our darling only spent the first few minutes hunting virtual mice and lost interest in this idea. I don’t delete this entertainment from the tablet, but I don’t try to lure the cat with it anymore either - I know that he will no longer show interest in it.

Happy Wings
In this game, your furry will have to catch various flying insects and birds. The creatures have different flight paths, and therefore the cat needs to be careful to catch all the targets. The better your pet catches insects and birds, the more difficult the levels become for him.
Different levels of difficulty make the game interesting and not boring
Cat Fishing
If you think your cat likes fishing more than hunting, try installing the Cat Fishing game for him. Instead of numerous birds and insects, your pet will find fish in it. Beautiful bright animation and various levels of difficulty will interest not only the cat, but also the owner himself.
The number of fish and the speed of their movement depend on your pet’s success in fishing
Game for Cats Paw Me
The goal of this game is to catch objects moving across the screen. Paw Me contains a large amount of animation and changing background images, which allows you to keep your pet interested for a long time. There is a possibility of multiplayer games. Modes are available in which the cat will compete in speed with another cat or person.
In this game the cat needs to catch bows, feathers, mice, fish and other baits with his paws.
