Sometimes the simplest toys are best for cats. Organic catnip mice in attractive recycled fabric with a tempting string tail can keep your kitty entertained for hours, as she bites, kicks, grabs and tosses it around.

The perfect gift for an eco-friendly cat lover, these mice are hand-made in the US from recycled fabric. They are six inches long so big enough for a cat to really get to grips with. They are not that cheap if you are buying for several pets, but if you are happy to pay for chemical free organic catnip and handmade style, then well worth it.
