The 9 Best Cat Toys for Maine Coons

1. Hepper Cuppa Tea Cat Chew Toy — Best Overall

If you are looking to get your cat a solid, attractive toy that will bring them hours of entertainment, we highly recommend the Hepper Cuppa Tea Cat Chew Toy. We think that it’s the best overall cat toy for Maine Coons.

This cleverly designed little tea bag is sturdy, durable, and well stitched. It is made with linen, cotton, and USDA organic catnip. Since this toy is filled with catnip, it is not washable, but it is otherwise long lasting.

Your cat can keep this around for months! It comes in two colors, and the string attached is sure to entice most kitties to play with it, even if the catnip doesn’t. We think that the overall quality of this toy makes the price well worth it, but keep in mind that it won’t be for everyone’s budget.

At PangoVet, we’ve admired Hepper for many years and decided to take a controlling ownership interest so we could benefit from the outstanding designs of this cool cat company!

2. Frisco Colorful Springs Cat Toy

The best cat toy for Maine Coons for the money is Frisco Colorful Springs Cat Toy. These springs are affordable, and most cats go ballistic chasing them! You get 10 springs that come in a variety of bright colors—blue, yellow, red, and green—and they do a great job at bouncing and skittering on the floor erratically.

On smooth floors, they can move super-fast and can give your Maine Coon an exciting and vigorous workout! However, while they bounce a little, don’t expect them to bounce high like regular springs.

3. TRIXIE Activity Fun Board 5-in-1 Activity Strategy Game Cat Toy

TRIXIE Activity Fun Board 5-in-1 Activity Strategy Game Cat Toy is our premium choice pick. It’s a great option if your Maine Coon gets bored easily, as it provides a challenging puzzle that can help stimulate your cat’s curiosity and senses. You place a few of your cat’s favorite treats in the activity board, which has five different challenging ways for your cat to retrieve the treats. These obstacles require your cat to figure out how to get the treats out of things like globes, pegs, and tunnels.

But being a premium choice does mean it’s pricier than the rest of the toys on this list. Also, if your Maine Coon has particularly large paws, they might have difficulty getting the treats out of certain obstacles, especially if they are polydactyl.

4. Frisco Butterfly Cat Tracks Toy — Best for Kittens

Frisco Butterfly Cat Tracks Toy is a great option for your Maine Coon kitten. It has three tracks with a ball in each one that your kitten can bat as fast or as slow as they want and in either direction. It also includes two butterflies on wires that kittens will enjoy batting around. The toy has nonskid pads to keep it in place on the floor, and a replacement butterfly is included. Due to the three tiers of tracks, this toy can also work with more than one kitten—or adult cat, for that matter.

The main cons of this toy are that some cats get bored of it relatively easily and that if a kitten is super enthusiastically playing with it, it can be knocked over.

5. Hepper Fish & Chews Fish Cat Toy

We can’t rave enough about the Hepper Fish & Chews Fish Cat Toy. It is an adorable, classy-looking set that you won’t mind lying around on your floor. This is a simple cat toy that combines a modern look with an age-old concept.

Cats love having something to chase around, and they will quite enjoy staying busy with this adorable toy.

You can choose between two neutral colors, whichever one strikes your fancy! This toy is made of birch, wool, cotton, and polyester. It is completely machine washable, so you can keep it on hand for months and maybe even years to come. It’s a little pricey, but we think that it’s worth the price.

At PangoVet, we’ve admired Hepper for many years and decided to take a controlling ownership interest so we could benefit from the outstanding designs of this cool cat company!

6. Kitty City Large Cat Tunnel Bed

The Kitty City Large Cat Tunnel Bed gives your Maine Coon a play spot and a bed all in one. You get two tunnels that when put together, make one circular tunnel with the bed in the middle. When zipped, it has two entries, and the tunnel size is designed for large cats, so most Maine Coons will easily fit.

The issues are that while it’s great that it is large enough for Maine Coons, this also means it takes up a significant amount of floor space. Additionally, the material for the tunnel is a little thin, and some metal wires are exposed. It’s not dangerous but it might not be too comfortable.

7. Fat Cat Crazies Playrings Cat Toy

Fat Cat Crazies Playrings Cat Toy is difficult to describe. You get four brightly colored plastic rings that have a wavy design. This is what makes them so much fun for cats, and your Maine Coon will be rolling, flipping, sliding, and carrying them around. These toys might do the trick if your cat loves small items like twist ties. They work best on uncarpeted floors, and most cats will get hours of entertainment with these!

But if your cat is a chewer, these might not be the best toys, as they can be easily chewed up. Additionally, if you accidentally step on one, it will hurt!

8. Catstages Tower of Tracks Cat Toy

The Catstages Tower of Tracks Cat Toy has three tiers of tracks and two balls for each track, which a cat can bat around inside. This way, the balls don’t get lost, and the cat can still have a great time playing with them. It also has non-skid pads on the bottom, which help keep it in place, and it can be played with by more than one kitty.

Unfortunately, there may be a manufacturer’s error with this product, as it is shown to have two balls on each tier, but some people received models with only one ball on each tier. It’s also fairly lightweight and cats can easily flip it over.

9. Fashion’s Talk Cat Toys Variety Pack for Kitty

The Fashion’s Talk Cat Toys Variety Pack for Kitty can make an excellent starter pack if you’re bringing home a new kitten or adult cat. It also enables you to provide your Maine Coon with new toys that you can swap out from time to time to keep them from deteriorating too quickly. It’s an excellent way to figure out what toys your cat loves best. You get 20 different toys, including balls, mice, feathers, and catnip.

The issues with these toys are that you might end up paying for multiple toys only to have your cat reject most or all of them, that some of the toys are cheaply made and might fall apart, and that the toys that you see in the picture aren’t necessarily what you’ll get.

Buyer’s Guide: How to Pick the Best Cat Toy for Maine Coons

There’s quite a variety of cat toys to choose from, but there are a few considerations that you should make when shopping for a large cat like a Maine Coon.

Size

This is an essential factor to think about when shopping for a large cat. If you’re aiming for a toy that your cat can bunny kick, double-check the measurements and even measure the length of your cat. When cats bunny kick, they can scrunch themselves up a bit, but the longer the toy, the better.

A simple rule is to always check the measurements. That also includes shopping for tunnels, cat beds, and cat trees. Many Maine Coons are polydactyl, so those large paws are even larger than usual, which is something to keep in mind when looking at toys.

Durability

Similar to size, you need to ensure that the toys are durable. With bigger paws and extra weight, these cats can do quite a number on their toys. Look for tougher and more durable toys for your Maine Coon, and make a point to read reviews. Other cat owners will discuss the good and the bad of any toy that you’re considering.

Switching Them Out

It’s a good idea to switch out your cat’s toys from time to time, as this helps give them longer lives and provides your cat with “new” toys more frequently. Start by hiding any toys that your cat initially loved and then seemed to get bored of, and bring out a few newer ones. Bring them back after a while, and put the newer toys away, as they have also likely become boring.

Quality Time

It’s great to invest in toys that don’t require your participation for your cat to enjoy playing with. You can purchase all kinds of gadgets, like automated laser pointers and butterflies. It’s also a great idea to leave a few toys out for your cat to play with throughout the day.

But remember to also pick up items that you need to use yourself, to engage your cat in acrobatics and antics. Toys like feather wands will strengthen your bond and will undoubtedly give your Maine Coon an excellent workout!
