Mouse game for cats
A cartoon mouse peeks out of its hole, sniffs, then dashes across the floor to another hole. When your cat taps it, it squeaks and races home.
Settings
In full screen there are no buttons your cat can hit. To leave, a person holds the corner circle for two seconds.
End with a real catch. Screen mice can't be caught for real, so finish with a toy mouse your cat can grab or a small treat.
A cat and mouse game, made for your cat
This is one of those cat games with mice that plays like the real thing. Mice hide, peek, freeze and sprint, so your cat gets the whole hunt: the wait by the hole, the stalk and the pounce.
- Phone or tablet: lay it flat on the floor, screen up, with the brightness turned up.
- Settings: one mouse on slow is great for kittens; three fast mice keep a hunter busy.
- Protect the glass: a screen protector keeps claws from scratching it.
Watch mode: a mouse video for cats on your TV
Choose Watch, start full screen, and cast or AirPlay the page to your TV for cat TV with mice. It works like a mouse cartoon for cats, except it never repeats and never stops for ads.
Mouse game questions
Do cats like mice games?
Most do. A mouse that hides, peeks out and suddenly dashes is exactly what cats are built to hunt, so mice games for cats tend to hold attention well.
What's the difference between Play and Watch?
Play reacts when your cat taps a mouse. Watch is a calm, full-screen mouse game for a TV, with nothing to tap.
Why are the mice yellow, white and blue?
Cats see yellows and blues best, and white stands out on the dark floor. Reds and pinks look dull to cats, so we skip them.
My cat waits by the hole. Is that normal?
Yes, that is classic mousing. The mice always come back out, from the same hole or a different one.
How do I leave full screen?
Hold the circle in the bottom corner for two seconds. On a computer, the Esc key works too.
