The catnip (also called cat balm) bears its name quite rightly: On most velvet paws, the plant exerts an almost seductive effect. Whether outdoor or house tiger, whether confronted with the flowering plant or with dried plant parts: Magically, cats are attracted to the scent of catnip. Thanks to this attraction, cat toys are gladly filled with catnip - in this case, a simple small pillow is already enough to animate the cat to play and to occupy in depth.

In addition, to offer your furry nose natural and entirely plastic-free entertainment, this catnip pillow from the Rhineland manufacturer is made entirely of natural materials: Hand-felted from pure new wool and filled with dried genuine catnip, these cushions offer your pussycat the pleasant softness of wool felt and that intense, irresistible mint scent. By the way, cats have a habit of not only bunny-kicking such catnip pillows, but also licking them extensively, wetting them thoroughly. Therefore, it is best to let the pillow dry after the game and knead it every now and then, so that it can spread its bewitching scent longer.

Independent and dignified the one, affectionate and cuddly the other: Of course, cats are also very different in nature. But they all have one thing in common: they are hunters. Even the gentlest house cat cannot deny the heritage of its ancestors and instantly turns into a merciless predator when a fly buzzes by, a bug crawls over the wall or - just like that. If you have ever seen your cat suddenly dash through your house, apartment or garden as if stung by a tarantula for no apparent reason, you know what we are talking about. Cats have an irrepressible energy, which they like to release by playing and romping around. Above all, however, all cats, from the clumsy kitten to the set grand seigneur, need the playful movement to develop healthily and to be able to build up and strengthen the bond with other animals and with humans.

Therefore, it is important to give the cat incentives to play - this applies all the more if you keep your cat as an apartment animal. Games that appeal to the hunting instinct of the house cat work best. Everything that scurries, rolls, flutters and floats exerts a natural fascination on the cat and wants to be hunted down at all costs. In play, the cat trains muscles and agility, sharpens its senses and attention and promotes its intelligence. So do not hand your cat the treat, but throw it so that he has to chase after it. In between, get out cat fishing rod, felt worm and the pillow with catnip and challenge your cat to play. You will quickly notice: if the cat plays, the human is also happy.
