Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

It depends on the cat. I've seen (indoor) cats that need no human intervention whatsoever to enjoy their play hunting. They just go off and do it themselves lol. They don't even need a cat toy necessarily; they'll find something to play with (like those plastic pull tabs that seal milk jugs)
You are right, those cats definitely exist, I am just warning against generalization.
A lot of houses (most houses) are purposefully completely devoid of the kind of stimulation cats need at a basic level.
Imagine walking through a house if you were as tall as a cat, most houses are just a series of blank, sterile surfaces without even any visual or texture variation.
You can't assume cats will just entertain themselves, they might be happy to do so but it is kind of cruel to assume they will given you are the one that locked them in a box. Like a bored predator, they need dynamic, reactive things they can discover, stalk and pursue, not static objects that are briefly compelling to swat at.
