Fun Catnip Toys for Engaged Felines

The catnip toy category is a battlefield of sensory delight and design debacles. Winners pack organic, potent catnip with robust, interactive features—think chirping sounds, crinkle paper, and tough stitching—that keep kitties bouncing off the walls. Losers, on the other paw, suffer from flimsy seams, inconsistent engagement, and sometimes downright uninspiring designs. Red flags include weak construction and toys that lose their spark after the first bout of play. In short, if you want a toy that actually performs, steer clear of the novelty duds.
