Catnip Crinkle Cat Toy – Handmade Corduroy Cushion with Wool

A small corduroy cushion with crinkle paper inside that rustles every time your cat grabs, kicks or carries it. It's filled with English sheep's wool that I wash by hand, plus your choice of catnip, valerian or no herbs.

Why cats love it

• The crinkle sound sparks curiosity and the hunting instinct
• Corduroy ribs are easy to grip, bite and carry
• Small and light enough to bat across the floor, big enough to bunny-kick

Choose the filling: catnip, valerian or no herbs

Every option is the same price. Catnip is the classic. About one in three cats doesn't react to it, and many of those cats love valerian instead. No herbs means wool and crinkle paper only, which is ideal for kittens or cats that get over-excited.

Catnip versions ship from stock. Valerian and no-herb versions are made to order, so please allow up to 5 working days before dispatch. Not sure which to choose? Read our guide to catnip, matatabi and valerian.

Key facts

Care and safety

• Always supervise play and check the toy regularly. Remove it if it becomes damaged. No cat toy is indestructible.
• Spot-clean with a damp cloth. Please don't wash it, because the crinkle paper won't survive the water.

Frequently asked questions

Is the crinkle paper safe?

It's sewn inside the cushion and can only be reached if the fabric is damaged, so please check the seams regularly.

How do I refresh the scent?

Roll the cushion between your hands, or keep it in a jar with some dried catnip between play sessions.

Do you have a bigger version?

Yes: the corduroy kicker (sewn closed) or the refillable kicker.
