My cat meows for play constantly and won't play with toys alone?

Updated on September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered | 9 months and 18 days old | 4.85 lbs

After playing with leo for 20 mins and a 30min walk. I do this twice a day. He still meows loudly to play. Ive got him toys but he doesn't play with them by his own. It's hard not to get frustrated that even after an hour of playing and walking, he still won't rest. He would meow constantly until I do something. PLEASE HELP. My mom is thinking about letting him go because of his meowing.( She thinks he is unhappy) What do I do ???

There are these amazing toys by Catit such as the senses play circuit. It's a ball on a track that cats can chase around and around on their own. They have a whole series of toys designed for solitary play, so check it out online. These may be suitable for Leo. I hope this helps!
