Mad Cat Tabby Taco Catnip & Silvervine Cat Toy

When I tell you I feel like I wasted a small fortune and hours trying to get my baby to exercise, I am not exaggerating. My boy refused EVERYTHING- toys that squeeked, toys that didn't, made of organic catnip, battery-operated, mommy operated, with feathers, without- "^-_-^ No, thank you" He's only every loved this one string I could never find again. It was an undone bowtie from my friend's dog that he received after being washed at the groomers, and of course, they don't use them anymore so couldn't offer to purchase it from the groomer. It's been years guys! But I love my fur baby so much, never gave up. This toy and the egg they make with the same strings, guys, it was SECONDS after I took When I tell you I feel like I wasted a small fortune and hours trying to get my baby to exercise, I am not exaggerating.

This toy and the egg they make with the same strings, guys, it was SECONDS after I took it out of its packet and my boy couldn't get enough of these things. Instantly turned him into a toy hog. Hope he remains interested, if he does I will probably order some each month along with my monthly litter and food order. … more

My 13 week old loves toys but as a typical kitten gets bored of them after. I got this toy originally for my older cat who only likes silver vine and not cat nip. My kitten walked up to it and played with it for two hours straight. My older cat also played with it for about 20 minutes which is impressive for him. This toy is awesome!! Wish chewy would let me post the video of him playing with it because it’s adorable!

I purchase this over and over.. It is incredibly durable for how much my cat is constantly biting it. I think the texture mixed with the catnip/silver one cone are super pleasing in a sensory aspect. He always loves toys with ropes, and the shape and size of this make it so he can play with it without the ropes in his mouth if he wants, but attack it with them as well. It’s big enough to be fun to fight, and small enough (on the thin side—it is a taco after all) that he can carry it around. We love it!

With the reviews from this site and admittedly from Ricky Gervais, I thought this would likely be a winner for my 8 mo. kitten. It’s cute, has little ropes for texture, and just cracks me up that’s it’s a taco. BUT, Saki really doesn’t care about that. Nope. She’ll kick and chew on it for a few seconds and then it’s on to other things. I would like to stress, however, that she is NOT affected by catnip. It’s powers do not work on her which would otherwise make my life a bit easier. So, if your cat likes these type of plushy toys filled with catnip, then it may be a go. For us, it’s just going in the pile or maybe as a cute cat photo prop.

I made the mistake of only buying 1 of these tacos for my cats and they've been fighting over it. They go crazy for the catnip inside of it. Overall I'll definitely buy more and recommend this toy!

Bought for our 15 year old kitty, & she absolutely loves it. Most of her toys now sit, but she played with this for a long while as soon as we gave it to her.

My person got ME this toy. It is NOT for my two kittens and they need to just back up because I am NEVER giving it up! Seriously though, how did they know the little strings would be my favorite part? Runty and Alphie: go get your own. Update: my person is ordering my daughters their own tacos now because, frankly, I'm being a brat about sharing.

This hasn't received QUITE the level of mad love that the fried egg with little string arms and legs has (I think the latter's smaller size appeals to the cats more?) but it is VERY popular here. My gang did NOT like the burrito kicker (too big? Can't be carried around?) so I'm glad the taco is getting the attention it dserves.Thematically, it works nicely with their taco truck scratchy house (not from Chewy, but I would buy one from Chewy, Chewy!) and yes, I realize I sound like a Crazy Cat Person.

Bought one for three kitties to share, well, that didn't work. They fought so much over this toy that I immediately had to order two more. When the new tacos arrived (super fast shipping!), my crabby old lady took all three and laid down on top so the boys couldn't play. Problem solved, I also ordered the Mad Cat Flamingo so that became her one and only favorite toy. It is so cute to see the boys run around with their tacos in their mouths and flipping them in the air. Thank you Rick Gervais for the inspiration. My kitties love this as much as Pickles.

My foster kitten started playing with this immediately when I gave it to her. She loves to gnaw and pull on the knotted strings and kick it around. I would recommend for any cats that love to yank on toys with their teeth. It feels safer than a furry toy that could come apart and get stuck in her mouth.
