As the summer heat ramps up, we often find our pets spending more time indoors, sometimes feeling the summer blues while their families are away on vacations. Keeping our beloved pets intellectually and physically stimulated is crucial to fend off boredom and keep them happy.

We’ve compiled a collection of unconventional—and downright hilarious—games in our latest blog post, designed to entertain your bored pet while indoors.

Sensory Scavenger Hunt

Hide treats or toys that have unique smells around your house. It’s a fantastic way for your pet to use their natural scent-tracking abilities, keeping their nose (and their spirits!) high.

DIY Obstacle Course

Use pillows, boxes, and tunnels (or any safe household items) to create a fun obstacle course. It’s not only entertaining but also a great workout for them!

Hide-and-Seek with a Twist

Enhance the classic game of hide-and-seek by using squeaky toys or treats to signal your location. It’s a playful way to engage with your pet and strengthen your bond.

Interactive Food Puzzles

Challenge their brain with food puzzles that require them to solve a puzzle to get their treats. These games are perfect for mealtime, turning an ordinary routine into a fun activity.

Dance Party for Two

Crank up some upbeat music and dance around with your pet. It’s an energizing activity that can help stretch those legs and shake off any idle mood.

Each of these games is designed to keep your pet engaged, active, and above all, integrated into the family fun, even when it’s too hot to go outside. Cheers to a fun-filled summer indoors.
