"When I couldn't find Bub's favorite crinkle toy, I thought these would be a good substitute. Only two of the six toys had any crinkle to them. I'll have to keep hunting under furniture for his old toy."

Bottom Line

These toys are great for cat owners seeking variety and aesthetic appeal, but be aware of your cat's preference before purchasing.
