My cat only likes toys with some type of string but then he chews thru them and won’t play with them anymore. What type of toys would be best?
There are plastic toys that are long/string like that may be a little more robust for Chevy to play with. Laser pointers may also simulate something on a string that he can safely chase. If he does like things with string on them, I would just make sure to monitor him while playing to ensure he doesn't eat any string and so you can discard the toy if he chews a piece off.

My last kitten used to bite me a lot and it would really hurt I'll soon be getting a new kitten and I want to know how can I prevent him from bitting me or anyone else?
It's normal for kittens to want to scratch and bite when they play, so it's important to make sure that he has lots of his own toys to provide an appropriate outlet for this behavior. Try to provide a variety of different things to play with, like fishing pole style toys on a string, large plush toys to grab and kick, and smaller toys to chase and bat around. It's also important to never play with him using your clothing or bare hands, or he will think that it's okay to grab and bite you. If you're petting him and he grabs or bites your hand, just redirect him to one of his toys and use that to play with him instead. Most cats grow out of this behavior as they get older, so just be patient and consistent in the meantime :)

Aquiylan turns two in less than 2 months. What sort of thing would you recommend getting him to make the occasion joyful for him? He doesn't particularly like hard toys with bells and he's not really a catnip type cat but the soft sparkly toys that h
He looks beautiful. Most cats love crumpled paper balls! But you can try the fuzzy mice that are available from a pet store or get one of the angling toys (a stick with an attached string and a fetherball at the end). You can also make a feather toy for him by gathering a lot of feathers, tying them together and throwing it. Anotehr great toy is a ball into which you can put dry food. The ball has a few holes and as he plays with it the food falls out. once he figures out how it works, it is a great toy. (But my cats still like the small crumpled paper balls best.....)

My kitten likes to scratch my wooden chair, doors,and occasionally the door frames. I bought her a wooden cat scratcher with catnip and all she does is bite, sleeps, and lays on it. Do you have any recommendations on what would be a good scratching
Hello, actually the more variety you give her, the more chances you will have to get her to use one or more of the scratching posts. Different substrates, sizes & dimensions are necessary. I have curved, upright & horizontal ones made of carpet, jute & sisal. Keep her nails trimmed ( just take off the sharp point ) or put on glue-on nail caps & your furniture & sanity will be preserved. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

There are a lot of toys that cats love that you can make at home: some cats will chase a crumpled ball of paper or a pom pom, you can tie a few feathers to a stick with some string, or you can put some crinkly plastic in something like a sock. Be sure that the toys are for supervised play only. Here is a link to some ideas: https://www.worldsbestcatlitter.com/clearing-the-air/2014/03/the-10-best-homemade-cat-toys/
