Toys are Essential for Cats and Kittens
Toys provide your
cat or kitten with an essential outlet to express their natural
predatory instincts. Stimulating toys also help to prevent boredom,
particularly for strictly indoor cats. Toys provide healthy exercise
which is important for
weight control, developing muscle tone,
agility, and stamina. In addition to being fun, interactive
playing with cats strengthens the feline-human
bond which is so important for genuine cat lovers.
Our
toys are kitty tested and kitty approved!
Health and Safety are important to us
Our toys do not
contain small parts (ie: buttons, small external bells) that could be
easily chewed off and accidentally swallowed, therefore posing a health
risk.
Enhanced Visual, Aural, and Tactile Stimulation
Cats do not see
colors the same as people do. Contrast and
Pattern are more important.
Many of our toys are offered in colors that contrast
well with each other for Enhanced Visual Stimulation. Our
Jingle
Toys
provides Additional Aural Stimulation.
The Materials are durable and the
textures provide Enhanced Tactile Stimulation and pleasure.
Our Crochet
Toys offer further enhanced tactile stimulation with
the unique textures produced by the intricate crocheted stitches.
Our
Catnip Toys contain 100% Organic Premium Quality
Fresh Catnip Only
Since catnip filled toys are not recommended for kittens
under 4 months of age, these toys are unsuitable for them. Our
Kitten Friendly,
Catnip Free Toys
are well suited for young kittens. To add the allure of
Catnip (for kittens older than 4 months and cats) to our
Kitten-Friendly, Catnip-Free Toys, see our recommendations below.
Our
Catnip Toys
are not "fully loaded" with catnip. Toys that are "fully
loaded" with catnip only, become extremely messy once they are
minutely punctured by a claw or a tooth, as the catnip starts to leak
out of the toys and scatter. Some cats experience digestive upsets
from these leaky "fully loaded" toys, ingesting too much catnip (often
stale) at once. Since our toys only contain
100% Organic Premium Quality Fresh Catnip,
its potency is very high and therefore only small amounts are required
in the toys.
Catnip Recommendations for Kitten Friendly, Catnip Free Toys
Catnip is not
recommended for kittens under four months of age as they do not need the
extra stimulation.
To add the allure of Catnip, just place the toys in a tight sealing
jar/bag with Premium Quality, Fresh Catnip and
let sit for two weeks. This process can be repeated from time to time to
help renew your kitty's interest in the toy. Catnip Pellets can also be
inserted into the crochet toys through the weaving in the yarn or as an
alternative you can use Catnip Spray.
Care Instructions for Catnip Free Toys
Our Kitten-Friendly,
Catnip-Free Toys are machine washable
(cold, gentle cycle) and dryable (low heat). Toys can also be layed
flat to air dry. The teaser wands can be spot cleaned with a lightly
dampened cloth or sponge. This keeps them clean, sanitary and long
lasting.
Disclaimer
Although we can’t guarantee your cat’s
enthusiasm or safety with any specific toy, we can offer the
following guidelines.
It is recommended that cats and kittens are supervised when playing with
any toys. Toys should be
inspected regularly, and any loose material should be discarded to
prevent accidental swallowing.
Cat Teasers are intended for interactive play. When not in use,
always remember to conceal them in a drawer that cannot be opened by
your cat or kitten.
