Beware, your cat will fall in love
A toy (freska) of medium size but it works wonders, the smell is, well, not very pleasant for the human nose, I think (a combination of yellow cheese and stinking sweaty shoes/socks)The smell isn't very intense, so if you're very close to the toy, you can smell it, but the fact is that it's not us who should like it, it's our pets, and for my cat it's an absolute hit. Fredka (toy)and Klakier are always close to each other, the cat is obsessed with toy. He stopped scratching everything around him

Odourless
The smell used to be so intense I had to open the windows after taking it out. My cat loved those, always went absolutely crazy about rhem, but last two I ordered were almost odourless, not engaged the cat at all. Very disappointed.

Must have toy for my 2 cats.
I buy this regulary for my 2 cats and even for my parent's cat. When brand new - cats do go crazy about it so I limit play time to 10min. Eventually (a few weeks? a month?) the smell fades. Then I leave the toy out at all times. Cats still love it, rub their nose it, wrestle with it. So I keep replacing it maybe once or twice a year. Just to refresh it - it doesn't really deteriorate. I do brush it occasionally.

Smells absolutely vile
This looks cute but smells like rot. Will be returning it.

Amazing toy
Cats all went nuts over this but store in a zip lock bag when not using or scent fades quickly

Brilliant little thing
As soon as I got this out of the packet, my cat went mad! It's probably the best purchase I've ever made for her!
The only issue I have is that tiny little bits of the filling do somehow come out of the toy and all over the floor. Other than that, it's a really good toy! Great for your cat!

This is the funniest toy- my boy went nuts - but the scent fades fast and then... no interest..
Two issues - first is how fun it is to watch your cat go bananas over this. Yay!
I offered it up for a limited time and put it away afterwards to try and preserve some of the aroma.
But after a few weeks the scent is dead and cat not interested.
So my reservation is that it's not a lasting, sustainable way to get your cat to play as the toy is obviously made of fake fur which can't be recycled in any meaningful way.
But watching him enjoy the toy so much.... climate change or kitty heaven?

Cheeky’s favourite toy
The ferret is Cheeky’s favourite toy, she just loves it, particularly wrestling it and kicking with her back paws. When I put it away she gets it out of her toy box herself, well she is a tuxedo cat who just loves her ferret!

Smells and fur came off easily
My cat loved it, but it absolutely stinks. Unfortunately he went a bit too mad for it and was able to lick clumps of fur off it. He possibly swallowed some before I took it off him and put it in the bin

Funny
I received this for my cat as a gift and the reaction was just hilarious, he loves his ferret and will protect it with his life. I have since bought a few people this and all say the same. It will make the most aloof cat go absolutely bonkers.

Changed the material. Cats now hate it
Bought a new one of these recently. It is my third one. Unfortunately they have changed the material of it, it feels a lot more synthetic and cheap. My cats refuse to play with it which I'm gutted about as they don't react to catnip or anything. This was the only thing they loved so I'm really disappointed.

Best toy!!
My cat absolutely loved this from the minute it came out of the box. Lots of bunny kicking and he licked it soggy! So worth the money!

My cat went nuts
She likes catnip generally, but the ferret (lovingly named Fergus ferret) turned her into a feral creature.
She padded around the house with a deep meow carrying him in her mouth.
He also randomly appears in different spots in the house. Particularly outside the bedroom door in the morning.

Honestly I’ve never seen my cats have such a reaction to one toy that I wish I’d bought two of these. They went absolute crazy and are loving playing with this toy, this toy does smell not the most pleasant to us humans due to the valerian which was to be expected. Stay away if you are sensitive to smells.
By far one of the cheapest but best investments I’ve made in a toy for enrichment. 10/10 buying one more in my next monthly order to make it fair

My kitten absolutely went mad with this toy
My kitten went absolutely mad with this toy the moment when we receive it.
My kitten was very excited, and went straight to his new toy. He looked like he is having lots of fun. And yes, there is a bit of smell, but it was fine with us. It’s smell of the nature.

I wish I was a cat so I'd like the smell as much as they do!
Even my 18 year old cat went crazy for this ferret, and she doesn't usually play at all. I wasn't even going to offer it to her, but as soon as I opened the ziplock bag it comes in, she was alerted by the smell, and jumped up to snatch it out of my hand. Catnip always makes her scent-mark the nearest hard surface and this was no exception. I'll definitely buy this again, even though I really don't enjoy the smell myself!

Good
They're good, I bought two for my two five-month-old kittens and as soon as they arrived, they used them and played with them. But as the days go by, they hardly even look at them. They have too many toys, just like kids.

Excellent
All the cats are thrilled; as soon as I opened the package, they immediately started sniffing around, rolling on the bag, and cuddling with the ferret. I'll order one for each cat.

Watch out for loose “hair”
Be careful with this one, make sure to thoroughly pluck out all the loose plastic hairs before giving it to your cat. There are loads of loose plastic strands that will fall out and end up in your cat’s stomach and intestines if you’re not careful (and maybe even if you are). With that in mind, I wouldn’t have bought it if I’d known. The cat definitely plays with it, but I’m not sure it’s worth the risk of her ending up with a stomach full of plastic hairs when she licks it. The quality doesn’t feel great.

Smells really bad
Nice toy to look at, but it smells soooo bad! Even after washing, it still stinks. When I'm sitting on the couch, I can literally smell it lying next to me.

It's fine
The toy smells a bit odd, but the cat doesn’t seem to mind. He has fun tossing the critter around, although there is something that does bother him: the toy comes with some kind of herb sprinkled on it and that seems to annoy him a bit because he keeps sneezing. But apart from that, he plays with it a lot and goes wild!

Ferret toy for cats
The cat went crazy as soon as I opened the package, so that's a plus, but the quality of the toy leaves a lot to be desired. After just a few uses, I had to sew it up, so the quality is poor, the fur sheds, and whether I like it or not, the cat ends up with it in his mouth :/ I won't buy it again.
I don't have the option to add a photo of the product.

Brilliant!
Our cats absolutely love these fredjes! Unfortunately, it broke after just a few play sessions—the seam came undone. Apart from that, I really recommend it!

Perfect
The cats run around the house with it and go wild. After a year, I just bought a new one. The difference is honestly hilarious—how terrible the old one looks now. The cats are in love with it.

Super
Well, it stinks but my cat is absolutely crazy about it, I buy some with every order! He shakes it all over the place, licks it, bites it, throws it in the air, pounces on it... To stop the smell spreading in my house, I give it to him on the terrace.

Best toy
The ferret has been my cats' loyal companion from day one. They love it. They drag it around everywhere, carry it off. After playing, they put it back in the bag and the scent lasts forever. Great ferret.

My cats are thrilled
My Coonie took it out of the box herself, even though the ferret was still wrapped up. She plays with it a lot. The toy is still intact. For my Coonie, it's an absolute dream. I totally recommend buying it.
