Plus, the animation for cats playing with these is really stinking adorable. Though these seem ineffectual, most cats like these and you’re likely always to have a cat using these, as opposed to other toys that may sit around unused. Rubber Balls: All three colors–you start with a red one.The Tiramisu Cube costs Gold Fish, so wait on that one, but when you do purchase it, it’s your best chance to attract the rarest kitty in the entire game. Orange and Navy-blue Cubes: there are two of these, and each can house up to three cats at a time while only taking up one space in your yard, making these easily two of the best items you can get for Silver Fish.Most of the really good fish-producing toys are too pricey early on in the game, but there are a few nifty goodies you can buy with Silver Fish for maximum cat enjoyment.

Spending these fish on more items for your yard attracts more cats, who then oblige with more fish, but naturally some items are better than others. There are plenty of rare cats you can attract (in costumes!) and expensive toys you can purchase to capture your kitties in goofy, adorable poses, but in order to do any of this, you need plenty of the in-game currency: fish.Ĭats visiting your yard leave behind fish, both of the common silver variety and the rare Gold Fish.
