The Aldi Hanging Egg Chair for cats sold out in moments, proving that nothing’s too good for our cats. Here are alternative toys and cosy pet homes to keep them happy

If there was ever any doubt of how much people love to indulge their cats, then the success of the Aldi Hanging Egg Chair for cats put paid to it.

A feline follow-on from their wildly popular sell-out human egg chair, the cat version of the chair went on sale May 23 - and promptly sold out the same day. Irrefutable evidence, then, that nothing is too good for our moggies.

But while - undoubtedly - the idea of a rattan throne for a furball is inherently adorable, it’s arguably not the most practical gift (more than one colleague opined their cat would never sit in an egg chair). As an alternative, we’ve compiled a list of brilliant - in stock - cat toys and pieces of furniture for your pet to enjoy.

What are the benefits of cat toys?

Cat toys are a brilliant way to stimulate your cat’s mind, express their instinctive pouncing and chasing skills, encourage them to exercise more and prevent problems such as boredom and separation anxiety, according to the RSPCA.

They can also be used to develop your bond with your cat through interactive play, and not only that but they can offer a major source of enrichment, especially for indoor cats.

Here’s nine of the best that are on the market right now, to suit cats of all ages - and all budgets for owners!
