Is the catnip safe for all cats?
Catnip is generally safe for most cats, but individual reactions may vary. Some cats may not respond to it at all.

Claire Stewart –
My cat loves the flickering light. She chases it constantly, especially at night. The catnip makes her even more excited. The texture is great too – she plays with it for hours.
Oliver Quinn –
The toy responds well to movement and keeps my cat engaged. The crinkle part adds a fun element. It’s a good night-time toy, though the light doesn’t stay on forever.
Andrew Walsh –
Great for stimulating hunting behavior. My cat runs after it like it’s a real mouse. The catnip really helps. Easy to clean and the tail grip is strong.
Luke Carr –
It works as expected, but the light flickers a bit erratically. My cat enjoys it, but it doesn’t last as long as I hoped. Still a solid toy for playtime.
