"These little crinkle balls are super popular. I had to keep back a couple so that they didn't all disappear under my furniture. Every cat in the house loves them"

— SpruceFairy

"After repeated attempts to get my two cats to play with these, they weren't in the least bit interested even though one of them likes to lay on plastic bags. They didn't even perk up if I crunched them, rolled them or threw them. They didn't even turn their heads.... your mileage may vary!"

Bottom Line

If your cat loves crinkly noises and you're okay with occasional durability setbacks, these Ethical Pet Mylar Balls are a great deal overall. Cats seem to especially adore the sound of these mylar balls and they appear well-suited for both small and large cats. Also when you buy these toys remember to supervise because if the ball starts to shred, you need to discard them so they don't become a choking hazard. And keep in mind, the Ethic Pet mylar balls are small, not 1.5
