Frisco Refillable Catnip Cat Toy, Brown Squirrel

As soon as this toy arrived I got it out, stuffed it with catnip and gave it to my cat who is almost 1.5 years old. She went crazy over it. She didn't play much with other toys I have bought her so I didn't have much hope that she'd like this one. Boy was I wrong. She played fetch with me and her new toy for a solid 30 minutes before tiring out. We named the toy Franklin. We can ask her to find Franklin and she'll go find him wherever she last had him. She bats him around, carries him around in her mouth, plays fetch with him and for some reason loves giving Franklin baths in her water bowl. I just ordered a second one bc somehow Franklin got lost. We are sure he's stuck somewhere my cat can't As soon as this toy arrived I got it out, stuffed it with catnip and gave it to my cat who is almost 1.5 years old. She went crazy over it.

We are sure he's stuck somewhere my cat can't reach. So, time for a backup Franklin. I've found that this furry texture is what my cat really loves. Balls, smoother objects and such don't appeal to her. It's the stuffed animal texture that she goes crazy for and of course the fact you can stuff this toy with fresh catnip doesn't hurt. … more

My cat hardly ever plays with toys. I have purchased and gotten rid of countless items. But I couldn’t resist this little squirrel. She loves to squirrel-watch all day, so even though I did not think she would play with it, I had to get it fit her to amuse myself. However, she LOVES this thing! Of course, you fill it up with the catnip that it comes with and that makes her more interested, but she’s had other toys with catnip that she didn’t care about. So, regardless of why she likes it, I am so glad that she does! She throws it up in the air and chases it, jumps on it, stalks it. It’s the cutest! It’s her only toy and they only one she needs or wants apparently. She has used it so much that My cat hardly ever plays with toys. I have purchased and gotten rid of countless items.

It’s her only toy and they only one she needs or wants apparently. She has used it so much that I have already used all of the catnip, (it wares off after awhile), and bought another bag. I hope she always plays with it, and it appears to be holding up well enough that could actually happen! … more

I had to give this 5 stars, because the toy is perfectly fine and it was probably my fault that I did not read any details. The squirrel is VERY small, like fits in the plam of a woman with small hands, small. Still very cute, and my one cat will flick it around once in a while.

My cat Tete loves this toy! He normally doesn't like plush toys but he seems to enjoy this one! I like how you can refill it with catnip because if he gets tired of the toy, I can just refill it and he'll go crazy again! He loves fighting with this toy, especially if I put it on his bed :) I also ordered it a few months ago and it's still in perfect shape.

When I filled this toy with the catnip my cat immediately started licking the toy. I thought it was hilarious but that’s how you know it’s some good cat nip! Eventually he started playing with it and even took a little nap with it when he was done!

Overview of the item - This is a super soft, hollow bodied plush that you fill up with nip. It has a velcro closure on it's belly. The tube the nip comes in makes for easy filling. ( I hung onto the tube to refill with my own nip later) It is well made. Our one cat, Brutus, loves this toy. Brutus is a giant cat breed and very selective with what toys he puts his energy into playing with. As soon as I opened this toy he was at my side, he couldn't wait to get a hold of it! He licked it and tossed it and pounced it.... which is saying a lot for Brutus! I will be ordering another for backup!

He absolutely loved it when I brought it out, going crazy and playing with it for several hours, but now he completely ignores it, even when I replaced the catnip. Not sure if it's because of the quality of catnip provided, or just my cat.

Our cat, Cindy, loves catnip. She also likes watching squirrels outside the window. I saw this refillable catnip toy and just knew Cindy would love it. She will often carry it to someplace quiet and rub her face and body against it. We haven't seen her play very actively with it yet, but it's only a matter of time. She enjoys throwing toys up into the air and fetching them.

all my cats love this toy so much I'm having to buy new ones all the time so eventually they will each have their own. They all slobber and rub their faces on this toy...the catnip quality isn't the best but the squirel by kong has great catnip but the cats don't care for the squirrel in that package but if u take the kong brand squirrel with catnip and use the catnip for the kong squirrel on the Frisco squirrel than you would have even a more excellent product. The squirrel is great if you use better catnip.

I got this because my cat has either destroyed or lost interest in her other plushy/catnip toys. I’m so glad I did, she’s obsessed, and can/does play with it for hours. I think the fact that it has a pocket and refill of catnip to keep it “fresher” in scent helps a lot.
