In the post below Dirk gives us “his opinion” of the Ruffle Snuffle Cat Candy toy (granted,  this is just my interpretation of his behaviour).

Remember when I told you about the Cuddly Cushion and how the name pretty much gives away its purpose? Well, the Cat Candy toy is playing mind games a bit! You think, candy!!!!! I love treats! And then when you first see the toy, you’re a bit confused, because it isn’t actually a treat?! I mean, you certainly can’t eat it.

All right, so it looks like a treat for people. The ones with colourful wrappers. You’re thinking, how is this going to be a treat for me? And then you see the ribbons and you start to think this might actually be a great toy! I mean, I don’t know about you, but RIBBONS!!! For some reason my mom thinks it has these ribbons so she can take the toy away from me, but I’m not giving it up that easily. Personally, I just love to chew them.

Wanna play?

Must say that those ribbons do mean that me and my mom can have fun with it together. I love it when she tries to take it away from me. Obviously, she doesn’t stand a chance against my nails, but I’m a good sport. I’ll let her win occasionally just because it’s so much fun chasing the toy again when she throws it away. And let’s be honest here, people are sometimes such sore losers, if I don’t let go of the toy then she’ll never want to play with me again (or perhaps that’s just my mom?)

See, she doesn’t stand a chance!

Am considering letting go….

Don’t worry if your mom or dad is not in the mood for games. This is also a very soft toy so good for cuddling, though I prefer kicking it. You can have loads of fun with it!

If you’d like to get your paws on one of these just tell your human to get one from Ruffle Snuffle and are £5.95 each plus postage to your cat den.

I always like to think I know what type of toys my cat Dirk will love and which ones he doesn’t care about. When I saw the Cuddly Cushion from 4Cats I thought it was perhaps more for kittens. I could just picture them grabbing the cushion and then holding it with their front legs while kicking it with their hind legs. You can probably picture it as well!

Of course there’s catnip in the cushion, which Dirk loves! But I thought once he’d had his catnip fix that would be the end of it…. Well let me tell you upfront that I was wrong: Dirk loves this cushion! I’ll let Dirk and the pictures speak for themselves.

Silly mom…. how could she have thought this …. was for kittens only?! And how could she now know what it’s for?! The clue is in the name: it is a Cuddly Cushion!

I always get so excited when she calls me and says she has a surprise for me. The sound of the crinkling plastic as she unwrapped the new toy, I couldn’t wait to find out what it was.

I had a good sniff first and then rubbed my head against it, and let me tell you it is sooooo soft! And it smells good 😉 But it’s really not just about the catnip (and coming from a catnip addict like me, this is saying a lot!)

OK, maybe some of this has to do with the catnip…

But that’s really not all. I love that it is so very soft. You can cuddle with it or just rest your head on it when you’re a bit tired from playing or just having a lazy day (that’s pretty rare, I know, I’m always super busy). I really love mine!

In all honesty, I do sometimes like to throw my Cuddly Cushion in the air and then chase it and when mom isn’t looking I also sometimes give it a good kick, but don’t tell her 😉

So, time to relax, because I am a little tired now. Luckily I have my friend… But before I go don’t forget that you can get this toy on the Katzenworld online shop.
