In my experience, most cats have toys that they prefer and others (regardless of cost) that elicits just an "eh" from them as they walk away looking insulted. All 3 of my cats absolutely LOVE the little mice I found at Wal-Mart that have a computer chip implanted in them. Whenever they're moved or played with, they chitter and must sound like a real mouse to the cats. Delilah, the Divine Diva, will actually roll over on her back and hold them between her paws! I keep replacing them with different versions to keep them interested. I've never seen a cat who won't play, at least for a while, with those fishing pole "teaser" toys. They make flashy ones with foil fronds, also. In answer to your second question, exercise is the best way to keep her fit, just like in us humans. Cats crave attention from the people they love. Sometimes we have to convince them how much fun it is to play. but don't give up...cats are naturally curious and when she sees YOU having fun, she'll wonder what's up!
