FAQs

Are these toys safe for kittens?

Yes, but they should always be supervised while playing to ensure they do not accidentally ingest any loose feathers or fibers.

Can I wash the mice in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these toys, as the natural sisal and hessian materials may degrade and the catnip scent will be washed away.

How long does the catnip scent last?

The duration of the scent varies based on how often your cat plays with the toy; you can extend it by storing the mice in an airtight container when not in use.

Are these suitable for aggressive chewers?

While durable, these are not intended for heavy chewers. Supervision is required to ensure your cat does not tear the fabric open.

What if my cat doesn't react to the catnip?

Not all cats have the gene to react to catnip. In this case, the toy still functions as an excellent textured scratching and pouncing object.

Troubleshooting

My cat seems to have lost interest in the toy.

Store the mice in a sealed bag with fresh catnip for 24 hours to rejuvenate the scent, or hide them for a few days to make them feel 'new' again.

The feather tail is becoming loose.

If the feather begins to detach, trim it off completely or dispose of the toy to prevent the cat from ingesting loose parts.

The mouse has ended up under heavy furniture.

Use a long reaching tool or yardstick to retrieve the toy, or consider tying a soft string to the tail to prevent it from sliding into tight gaps.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

No assembly is required for the Petface Catkins Mini Mice Tails; they are ready for use immediately upon opening. These toys are suitable for cats of all ages, though kittens may require extra supervision due to their smaller size. To maintain the life of the product, store the toys in a sealed container with a pinch of fresh catnip when not in use to help refresh the scent. Regularly inspect the mice for loose feathers or fraying threads that could pose a choking hazard. If significant wear is visible, remove the toy from your pet's reach immediately.
