My cat goes NUTS over this toy!
Never seen my cat react so strongly to a toy before and she's had toys with silvervine in them in the past too.
Be warned though, this toy STINKS and I wash my hands after touching it, but it was so so worth getting it for how much my cat loves it! It made her birthday.

Totally worth it A****
I love the smell of catnip so when I took it out of the bag I knew she would like it. It's now soaking wet and has flown through the air twice which is an accomplishment as she's 18. 20 minutes of play and now she's snoring.

Amazing 👏 🤩
This ferret may look like road kill but my cat loves this toy, its her favourite. I've now bought another two though 1 is for my friend's cat.

Poorly made
As soon as my cat had this he loved it but observing him he started to lick it and the hairy coating just kept coming off in bits, i even defluffed/dehaired it in the garden but it still came away after so i have taken it away in case he chokes on it or it gets stuck in his throat.

This ferret proves that beauty is in the eye of the beholder
I bought this for my poor, sad rescue cat and he used to lie with his head on it, obviously comforted. After 2 years, I felt that, finally, it was time for it to go!

Stinks but my cat loves it!
Ngl when I opened this it stank. Smells like wet socks. But my cat adores it!

My cat loves this
Despite being a little stinky (smells a bit like the valerian root tablets you can get for sleeping) my cat seems to love this. Whether she’s bunny kicking it, sleeping with it or even running around with it in her mouth like a dog she’s in fact crazy for this little toy.

Stinks but the cat adores it
As the title say, my cat loves it. It seems my cat will like the exact opposite of what I expect him to. If I forget it out of the bag, someone will figure out because of the smell. It leaves some hairs, as other mentioned, but I don’t think that’s such a big issue.
Obsessed cat
One of my cats is absolutely obsessed. theres a fierce fight every time she encounters the ferret. You can tell it gives her so much thrill.

Paws up from all 4 cats!
Great experience with this toy so far as all four of my cats enjoy licking, kicking, and cuddling it. No quality issues at all.
In Japan, they use silvervine more than catnip for cat toys and it has much the same effect. The smell isn’t particularly pleasant, but the joy it brings them is well worth it.
After a play session, the toy will be wet from drool so I give it a chance to dry out and then put it back in the plastic zipper bag to “recharge” the scent they love so much for next time.
Disgusting!
These are horrible to me - but my cats absolutely love them! Keeps them quiet for hours! Highly recommend!

Loves this
Brought 3 as my cat goes crazy for this ferret. It does have a strong smell but that's what attracts cats tooo it. Excellent value for your money
Amazing toy!
My cat loves it especially if she is feeling sassy and hyped, attacking the ferret rather than my hand!

Kitten LOVES it
My kitten is surprisingly obsessed with this. I hadn’t looked at the reviews so I was shocked at the smell it really is awful, but it’s obviously a great smelling toy to my ragdoll kitten so that’s all that matters 🤣 one downside is the fur on it, like other comments said, my kitten “grooms” it and the fur does come off very easily… but hey, if it keeps him busy then that’s a massive plus 😇

The favourite toy
The ferret is still my cats' favourite toy. I buy them one from time to time. Valerian has a very strong smell, so don't be surprised—yes, it smells strong, and yes, that's normal. But as long as the cats are happy, that's what matters most to me.

Top notch
One of the best toys I've bought for my cat—he reacts instantly to the smell, rolls on the floor, and plays with it for about 10 to 15 minutes. My other cat, who usually doesn't respond to catnip, actually reacts to this toy and plays with it too 🥰

Sheds long fibres that can be swallowed
Actually popular, apparently smells great. Encourages licking, and that's exactly the problem: the faux fur is very loosely woven, the long fibres come off easily and end up being swallowed. Not good at all.

Ferret kick
These ferrets are absolutely amazing. I already had one for my old cat, and even at 18 years old and in a weakened state, she still had her crazy five minutes with it. And now with the two kittens, it's a real hit. Luckily, there are two in the pack so each one has their own to carry around, knead, lie on, bite into, and drool over. They drag it off like prey and take it to their hiding spot—I'd give it 10 stars if I could!

I recommend
I expected my cat to go crazier with it after reading the comments, but with a bit of encouragement she can really wrestle that ferret toy with her teeth and paws. As for the smell, well, the most important thing is that the cat likes it. :)

This is terrifying!
Oh gosh, how awful it smells :((( It reeks like decomposing human remains or some other creature, like a mix of vomit and faeces :(((
But the cat doesn’t mind (she’s not disgusted by the stench) and even played with it at first ;)
I ripped it open and poured out the stinky stuff they’d sewn inside. I’ll see if it’s possible to get rid of that smell. Every time I remember that stench, it makes me want to throw up :(((

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've got 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, it still stinks. When I'm sitting on the sofa, I can just smell that thing lying next to me.
