Description
Your kitten bats at everything that moves, and most toys are too big to carry off. This small felted wool cat toy is made for batting, chasing and carrying, in two versions: Magnetic Base, with a sewn-on snap, and Pure Wool, with nothing added.
A cream felted wool ball with a red wool maple leaf on the front. About 3.5 to 4 cm across.
Best For
-
A new kitten: light enough to roll at the softest tap of a paw.
-
A cat that plays on its own: it kicks the ball around solo, or chases it in a game of fetch with you.
-
A cat that carries its toys: light enough to lift in the mouth and move from room to room.
-
A kitten in a chewing phase: the Pure Wool Canada maple leaf has no snap to work loose.
- Rolled under the sofa again? A metal rod picks the Magnetic Base Canada maple leaf up by its snap.
-
Off the floor between games: it sticks to a steel fridge door, where you can find it.
-
Solid wool, nothing hidden: 100% New Zealand wool all the way through. No plastic core, no stuffing, no bell.
-
Kitten-sized: about 3.5 to 4 cm and under 5 g, small enough to carry off.
-
No two alike: each Canada maple leaf is felted by hand, wet and needle, with no glue in any step.
-
Magnet or no magnet: the same Canada maple leaf comes as Pure Wool, with no snap on the outside.
Put the Canada maple leaf away after each game and bring out another shape next time. In one study, cats that had tired of a toy played hard again once it was swapped.
