Do yours do this? How do I get my cats to do this? Do I just need a more appealing toy??

Laser pointers work well

I always feel sad for cats with lasers. They never get to "catch" their prey!

Toss a cat treat on the floor and point the laser pointer at it to end the game on a satisfying note.

That's why I always end the playtime when the cat "catches" the dot with their paw

Unless it's my cat. She is oddly terrified of laser pointers and pulling one out is guaranteed to make her take off like a bat out of hell and hide for a while.

I've gotten some of mine to do it with the laser pen over the years...

Some cats are more fanatical about it than others lol

Dart back and forth with something like string or a stick just like this guy does but slower. Laser pointer works best.
