Fun catnip-filled toys to stimulate your cat.
Buying Guide
Choosing the perfect catnip toy for your cat can be a fun experience. Here are a few things to consider to ensure you find a toy that your cat will love:
Catnip Preference: Not all cats react to catnip. If your cat is new to catnip, start with a small toy to see how they react. Some cats go wild, while others may show little interest.
Toy Type: Catnip toys come in various forms, from simple pouches to elaborate scratching posts and beds. Consider your cat's play style. Do they like to bat, kick, scratch, or cuddle?
