So I have this cat. She's indoor and yearns to murder small animals however I won't allow it.

Problem I'm having is she gets bored of toys really easily, if i find one she likes it will work for a few weeks then she never wants to touch it again. Like I could put the toy away in a drawer for months and bring it out and still no interest.

I've run out of ideas for things to keep her engaged any ideas to try that work well with cats?

    I have two Bengals; they're very high-energy. I'll echo the advice already here about it generally being better to have two indoor cats instead of one, but I'll also add that your cat probably wants to play with you, not just with toys. Try some interactive stuff: I have one of those rods with a string and a feather at the end, and my cats love it. The feather at the tip is removable, so you can get different "toy tips" to combat boredom. I have a few different kinds of feathers, some things that look like birds, a fuzzy thing that looks like a weasel, and so on. Most cats aren't great solo players--they want responsiveness and challenge.

      When i say she's bored of her toys i mean including all the ones i use to play with her directly. She seldom plays alone its the playing with me she's bored of shrek-pixel-despair
