The age at which cats stop playing is between the ages of 7 to 10 years old.

When cats are kittens they will usually want to play a lot and be very active and play with toys or just be playful and have a lot of energy.

As the kitten grows into an adult cat then they start losing interest in playing as much as they used to when they were younger.

The actual age at which cats stop playing completely depends on the cat.

I've had cats that stopped playing with toys or just playing in general as early as age 2 years old and another cat I had would continue playing until 7 years of age.

The normal age range for cats to stop playing though is between 7 to 8 years of age.

But it can depend on the cat and it's normal.

As cats get older they start losing their drive to play.
