I have two cats - a very energetic siamese cat (Loki) and less active older cat (Cyd) and they both love these catnip mice toys. They toys are very light weight I really like that they are not made from fur. Loki destroys real and fake fur toy mice by skinning them and ripping of their tails. It was super creepy finding skinned cat toys on my pillow. The tail is made from some sort of twine that neither cat has managed to rip off and the cloth body of the mice is very durable. These things get lost under furniture before my cats manage to destroy them.

Mice mice everywhere

This is "the" favorite toy according to my cats . This is my second purchase of Skitter Mice, because one of my cats has taken to hiding & hording them instead of sharing with the other cats. I don't know if it's the dribble of cat nip within or the fact that the tail is hardened, slightly knobby string, adding to the fun of grasping & flinging it into the air, but my cats will root around in the shoe box I keep their toys in looking specifically for one of these mice. What I like about them is that they are cheap, don't fall apart, & if you accidentally step on one they're soft.

OMG!

He loves these SO much! They are his newest official Favorite Toy Ever, and the funny thing is that I'm not sure the catnip has anything to do with it. (He has another toy stuffed with organic catnip AND covered in real bunny fur - my sister-with-the-farm made it - and neither that nor these elicits the typical "I'm a cat high on 'nip" reaction from him.) What seems to make these so special is the tail, the size, and the weight. (I think. Who knows what he thinks??) I waited to write this review until the honeymoon period was over, and though he no longer throws them in the air, he still takes them outside into his outdoor enclosure with him, and ignores his previous other favorite little balls in favor of these. He's constantly bringing them to me (all. day. long.) so I can throw them by the tail and he can run after them. I'd like to subtract a star for the misleading picture. The seller needs to update it!! I got a card with three boring-looking gray/sandy-colored mice with braided fabric tails. I just don't think it's cool to misrepresent a product like that. But my darling loves them and so far they've held up in savage play, so who am I to complain, really? P.S. Update: Have gotten 3 cards of these (they keep disappearing). Here is what they actually look like.

Durable, my cat LOVES these mice.

I really like the quality and durability of these cat toy mice...my 12yr old cat simply LOVES them. Some other toy mice have hard shapes or the eyes are made of hard material and sometimes come off. I have had none of these problems with these toy mice. In fAct I think I have bought at least a total of three packs of these as my cat takes them and hides them. My cat loves to catch real mice and play with them til they are dead. I note he plays with these play mice a lot like he plays with real mice. He also loves to catch and/or bat them back to me. They are a soft material which I think my cat loves over the Hartz brand toy mice. When I gather up all his mice toys and he starts to play with them, he chooses this brand first. The price is really reasonable that I can replace them when he hides them. If not for the price I may not have tried them to begin with. I also but him a pack or two every month or two as back ups. I’ve NEVER had to replace this brand toy mice due to coming apart or the eyes starting to come undone. They are a perfect size, not to big. He prefers these over his old favorite toy mice that were soft but bigger. I highly recommend.

Our Cat Was High within Minutes

Our cat instantly started playing with the first mouse I tossed her. I left her alone for a few minutes and came back to this scene.

MY CAT'S FAVORITE TOYS! (BOUGHT THEM THREE TIMES IN LAST FEW YEARS! )

UPDATE: I just bought my cat Shanti 6 new Flip-Flop Cat Toys because she wore the other six out. These are her ABSOLUTE favorite toys ever. I gave her one ten minutes ago and she licked it, flipped it, rolled over on it... now she's lying on her back totally relaxed. The look on her face? Joy! (Old Review)... My beloved cat Shànti received these crinkly fish toys as a gift last Christmas. She LOVES them! Almost a year later hadn't lost them: they'll disappear for awhile and next thing you know there's Shanti lying on her pillow in the living room, licking the crinkly fish toy as if it's still covered in cat knip! Shànti often uses these fish as a pillow. She falls asleep with these toys between her front paws and her head on the body of the fish. Oh-- I forgot to add that when we showed the gift to Shànti she started playing with the fish while they were still attached to the cardboard. She went crazy for the smell of these toys! I wish I had a video of her reaction when we threw her one of the new fish. She threw it around in the air, rolled around with it in her paws, licked it until it was soaked through. Ha! This is one of her favorite all time toys, and definitely one of my favorite toys to watch her play with. I had no idea where my Aunt bought these, so I'm glad to see them for sale on Amazon.com We're buying her new ones only because she's played with these for a year and they're looking pretty gnarly! (Note: ONE reviewer said these were not safe. These are amongst the safest cat toys Shànti has. As I mentioned, Shànti plays with these daily and licks them all the time. Throws them around. Bites them. Etc. The fish have never ripped and I've never seen a plastic bag from inside exposed. My PERSONAL EXPERIENCE has been that these are extremely safe cat toys.)

I wrapped these up and put them under my tree ...

I wrapped these up and put them under my tree for my cat, Dracula. The same day, I heard a noise, and he was under the tree, unwrapping his mice with his teeth haha. He ended up getting them out, and ripping them out of the package haha. He loves them!

They look differently

My cat absolutely loves them. The only thing is that they don't look exactly as on the picture.

My cats went NUTS for these!

I ordered two packs of these, thinking that since we have five cats, six mice would work. One of our cats is a stray kitten that was dumped in the alley behind our business, about three weeks old, on the verge of starvation, and semi-feral. It's been about two months now, and we've decided to keep her as our "office Kitty" and she seems very content with this arrangement. Since she's about 2½ months old now, she's extremely rambunctious, so we got her a pack of these mice, among other things. We'd give them to her one at a time, and by the next morning, it would be nowhere to be found. She likes to bring her "favorite toy of the day" to sit beside – or in – her food dish while she was eating, but she was back to her previous day's "favorite toy of the day" the morning after we gave her the first Skitter Critter mouse. Well, I think it died a horrible death, because I found it a bit later, in her litter box, completely unrecognizable because it was covered with so. much. litter. So, my fiancé and I watched her play with her second mouse that day, curious as to how she was murdering her mice. It was quite well thought-out, I must admit. She played with the mouse for a while, until it was time to eat. Then, she'd place the doomed mouse to her water dish and – I couldn't believe this – hold it down in the water, as if she were drowning it! It would remain in her water dish until she finished eating, and then she'd commit the ultimate insult to the poor, drowned mouse. She'd take it into her litter box and BURY IT! The mouse was completely soaking wet, and we use clumping litter, so the deceased mouse closely resembled a large piece of, well, waste when we cleaned her litter box and discovered the first mouse in its undignified resting place. The second mouse escaped the same fate, because he (she? it?) found its final resting place in a trash can, not the Litter Genie (which is great, if you've never tried one). So, her final mouse from this three-pack is watched (by us) pretty closely, and we put it up at night when we close down for the day. The second three-pack went home, where three cats who are all almost four years old and one cat who is about eleven years old live with us. We gave them all three mice at once, and they were pretty well-loved until the mice got smart and went to the "vacation resort" for cat toys (under the couch) and were forgotten. One of my Korat boys (he's ~3½ now, but has the energy of a kitten) goes nuts when he hears the "skitter" kind of rattly sound that these mice make. He has a toy that's a wand with a string that has a toy dangling from the end, and the toy made that sound and he went so nuts every time it came out of its spot where it was "lost" (you know, where Cat, dog, and possibly baby [I don't know, I've never had a human to care for] toys go when the human is tired of playing). It's been sewn back together so many times that I don't know what it was when we bought it, so we just call it "Candy's bug" now. I sewed one of the skitter mice onto the same string as Candy's bug, and he loves it again as much as he used to; I wish I could put a video up here of him playing with it. His body goes into unimaginable contortions while he's jumping four feet in the air, it's really impressive! To sum up this overly long review, these little cat toys are absolutely worth the less than three dollars that they cost. As long as your cat doesn't systematically drown and bury them, or drown and put them in your shoes for you to step on the next day and scream so loudly that people in the next state wonder exactly what animal made the sound, they're great! They're realistic when stepped on wet or dry while half-asleep in a dark hallway, so your cats get to have fun watching their humans "play" with them, too! I'll definitely be ordering more with my next FBA order!
