Product usage advisory:
Silver vine can have a very stimulating effect on cats. We therefore recommend only giving the toy to your cat for short periods of time, to prevent overstimulation.
Please note: No toy is completely indestructible. As with any other product, please supervise your pet with this toy. Check the product regularly for damage, and replace the toy if it is damaged or missing any pieces to avoid potential injury to your pet.
My cats love this, my household doesn’t. My one concern was one of the cats was ripping out the fur, then she was eating it. We were worried about what it would do to her insides, so the ferret is now in an old sock, the cats still love it, and it still smells bad ☺️

Cat loves it, smell not so great
My cat practically wrestled the plastic bag it came in out of my hands and then spent ages cuddling and attacking the toy itself. Happy cat! However, I did get this toy rather than one of the other Aumüller ones as it said it was silver vine, no mention of valerian. When you receive it, you can smell the valerian, and the insert that comes with it says ‘silver vine and valerian’. I find the smell gross so I might not have got it for her if I’d known, although she does love it.

Stinky ferret!!! Absolutely honks!
God it stinks, but the cat loves it. It’s huge! She carries it around like a baby and then goes into kill mode. It does smell flipping awful though. I didn’t read the reviews before I bought it but Christ alive it’s next level. I would buy another though if she ever killed it enough that it was no longer interesting.

Omg smells of fox poo!
This smells bad, made my house smell bad too! My cat sniffed it, picked it up and took it outside and then walked away from it. He was as amused as we were! If he could speak human I am sure I would have to bleep out the words! Shame as i think he would have played with it if it wasnt for the smell. Glad he doesnt like it as this is going in the bin....waste of money, what a shame!

Absolutely Honks!
If I could give minus stars I would. This toy absolutely reeks. It triggered my asthma and made my cat Jodie vomit!
It’s a pity as the furry ferret itself would have been great.

Stinky ferret
Oh my word, never had such a reaction to any toy before. Max absolutely loves, loves, loves this. He was on it straight away, chewing biting and kicking! Throwing it up in the air and catching it. We sat there in hysterics, it was a joy to behold. Never had anything with these herbs and they do smell but it's worth it. Really, really, good value. Thank you Zooplus. ❤️

ferret toy
My kitten launched on this as soon as it was out of the packet and proceeded to play with it throughout every inch of the house. A strong smell of herbs. He responds the most to silvervine or valerian. A light toy for him to carry around, a good size to have a scrap with (he's a very big kitten), and long fake fur to give it that twitchy effect..

Great toy
As soon as we took this out of the box, both our two cats absolutely loved this. They had a stronger reaction than they have had to anything else like it. Will definitely have to get some more, which is no problem as the price is great as well. Can definitely recommend.

Absolutely love it
Both cats were fixated on this toy, immediately rubbing themselves on it and throwing it in the air. We found one cat cuddling it this morning, what a good purchase they love it

Yay! It's a hit
My cats liked and were almost fighting each other over it. Good job I also bought another toy with the same filling ;) I am not overly keen on the smell myself, but as long as the babes are happy ... ...
It's not a catnip toy, the label says it has silver vine and valerian. The German on the package may be also referring to catnip as in cat mint but the valerian is massively overpowering. Anyway, my cats keep on playing with both toys :) It is an attractive well made toy.

Fantastic toy!
Three seconds after opening the bag and my cat went crazy! She started licking it and scratching it and fighting it! Hoping that she will keep playing with it after the scent wears off - even so, the price is so low that I won't mind buying more.

great catnip alternative! 😸👍🏻
Both my 2yo and 11yo love this. sent them both nutty and "fighting" over who got to play with it first. As someone else pointed out the silvervine does wear off quickly (hence 4* insteadof 5) but luckily enough my 11yo is still happy to play with it! My youngest gets way too stimulated by catnip so the silvervine is a great substitute!

...very good
This silvervine ferret is brilliant! All 3 of my cats go bonkers for it, especially when it's fresh out of the box, 3 of my neighbours cats visit me regularly and the silvervine has the exact same effect on them too!...when they come in they can smell it and begin searching for it and proceed to roll around on the floor, biting and kicking. The only negative thing I have to say about this toy is that the silvervine does 'wear off' fairly quick, you can tell when the effect is wearing off as they stop going crazy with it and 'seeking it out' therefore I do find myself replacing them often. But all in all I would highly recommend- very entertaining watching it change your cuddly cat into a loon for 10 minutes
