Handmade Pastel Wool Caterpillar Cat Toy

A pastel caterpillar made from seven handmade felted wool balls (2.2 cm each), held together on an internal elastic cord. Light and wiggly, it's perfect for batting, tossing and carrying.

Why cats love it

• Wiggles and curls when batted, like something alive
• Easy to pick up and carry
• Soft felt balls, quiet on floors

Want a scented toy?

The caterpillar is made of solid felt balls and comes without herbs. Keep it in a jar with some dried catnip for a day and the wool will pick up the scent. For toys with catnip or valerian inside, try our corduroy kicker or wool fish.

Key facts

Care and safety

• Always supervise play and check the toy regularly. Remove it if it becomes damaged or loose. No cat toy is indestructible.
• Put toys with strings, elastic or feathers away after play and never leave them out unattended.
• This toy contains an internal elastic cord. It's not suitable for cats that chew toys apart or are drawn to string.
• Remove it as soon as it becomes damaged or starts to come apart.

Frequently asked questions

Is it suitable for every cat?

It's best for cats that bat and carry toys. For strong chewers, choose our 4 cm wool balls instead.

Can I leave it out?

Please put it away after play because of the internal cord.

Does it contain catnip?

No. The felt balls are solid wool, so there's no filling. You can scent it yourself with dried catnip (see above).
