Additional Information

Care Instructions

• Avoid Harsh Soap: Skip scented detergents or soap, since catnip toys can be damaged by strong chemicals and fragrances.
• Wash Sparingly: Clean catnip and fabric toys only when visibly dirty to help preserve their scent and shape.
• Air Dry Completely: Let the toy dry fully after any cleaning before giving it back to your cat.

Safety Instructions

• Replace When Damaged: Toys made of fabric or fur that become damaged with loose parts can become a choking hazard.
• Supervise Playtime: Always supervise your cat during play with any toy to keep them safe from hazards.
• Kittens May Not Respond: Kittens under six months of age often do not notice or react to catnip yet.
• Watch for Choking Risk: Supervise cats closely, since swallowed pieces of a damaged toy can cause gastrointestinal blockage in rare cases.
