Size: 8 × 4 in
Weight: ~100 g
Material: Jute yarn
Catnip: Yes
Special Feature: A sewn pouch on the belly for hiding treats

Packaging: Plastic-free and intentionally minimal. Wrapped in kraft paper, placed in a reusable cloth pouch, and packed in a cardboard sleeve. No unnecessary labels.
Shaped to be pounced on, carried, and investigated, this toy invites the slow rituals of play cats naturally enjoy. A hidden pouch allows treats or fresh catnip to be tucked inside, encouraging sniffing, problem-solving, and gentle hunting behaviour.
The jute texture offers resistance without hardness, making it satisfying to grip and kick.
Each toy is handwoven using natural jute yarn, without machines or synthetic blends.
Minor variations in stitch and form are part of its character and a reminder that it was made by hand, not mass-produced.

Air dry completely before reuse
Made with natural materials that will age gently over time
Not suited for aggressive chewing
Note: Contains catnip. Responses vary by cat.
