"My kitties go crazy for these sticks! The price is very reasonable for the number of sticks. It is important to supervise play, but I haven’t seen any splinters or small pieces. The cats do peel off the bark, but there have been no issues with the product itself."

— Raine

"I was hoping the cats would enjoy these, but they were quite unimpressed with them. Only one of my cats seemed to have any interest at all and quickly lost interest. they are laying around the favorite places, but none have shown more interest."

If your cat enjoys chewing and likes silvervine, these sticks are a good buy. However, be prepared for the possibility that your cat might not be interested.
