How to Use

Usage Instructions  

• Place on the floor for solo play: Set the Kickeroo Crunch on the floor and let your cat approach it; the catnip scent will attract most cats quickly, and the crinkle sound will sustain interest once they start playing.
• Drag for interactive play: Hold one end and drag it slowly along the floor to mimic prey movement; most cats will stalk, pounce, and kick the toy when it moves unpredictably.
• Toss for bat and chase: Toss the Kickeroo a short distance and let your cat run after it, bat it, and wrestle with it on the floor.
• Leave as a comfort item: After active play, leave the Kickeroo in your cat's resting area; the soft plush exterior makes it a natural item for cats to knead and snuggle.

Additional Information

Care Instructions   

• Spot clean the exterior: Use a damp cloth with soap to spot clean the plush surface when soiled.
• Air dry before returning: If any part of the toy gets wet during cleaning, let it dry fully in a ventilated spot before giving it back to your cat.
• Inspect regularly: Check the plush seams and surface before each play session for any tearing, fraying, or wear that could give your cat access to the crinkle material inside.

Safety Instructions  

• Supervised use only: Always watch your cat during play with this toy; do not leave it with your cat unsupervised for extended periods, particularly cats that bite aggressively through fabric.
• Remove all packaging: Before giving the toy to your cat, remove all tags and packaging attachments completely to eliminate any choking hazard before play begins.
• Discontinue if damaged: If the toy becomes torn, seams split, or internal materials become accessible, stop use immediately to prevent your cat from ingesting crinkle material or catnip filler.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What does the crinkle inside this toy do?

Ans: The crinkle material runs through the body of the toy and produces a crackling sound whenever the toy is compressed, squeezed, batted, or kicked. That sound mimics the sound of small prey moving through leaves or grass, which is one of the reasons cats respond so strongly to it during play.

Q2: What catnip is inside this toy?

Ans: The toy is filled with KONG Premium North American Catnip, which is grown and harvested in North America. The catnip is packed inside the toy alongside the crinkle material and works through the plush exterior as a scent.

Q3: Is this toy suitable for large cats?

Ans: Yes. The 15.5-inch length is long enough to suit cats of different sizes, including larger breeds. The elongated body gives bigger cats enough surface area to fully grapple with and kick using both hind legs simultaneously.

Q4: Can my cat use this toy without me?

Ans: Yes. The combination of catnip scent and crinkle sound gives the toy enough stimulation to hold a cat's attention independently without owner involvement. Leave it on the floor and most cats will return to it throughout the day.

Q5: Is this good for kittens too?

Ans: Yes, with supervision. The long shape and crinkle sound make this engaging for kittens from around one year of age. Always supervise younger cats with catnip toys to make sure the toy is being used safely and that the catnip and crinkle exposure are age-appropriate for your specific kitten.

Q6: How do I clean this toy?

Ans: Spot clean the plush exterior with a damp cloth and soap when it gets soiled. Do not fully submerge the toy since water can affect both the crinkle material and the catnip inside. Let the toy air dry fully before returning it to your cat after any cleaning.

Q7: When should I replace this toy?

Ans: Replace it once you notice seams splitting, significant tearing of the plush surface, or internal materials becoming accessible from outside the toy. At that point the crinkle material or catnip filling could be swallowed, which is a safety risk. Regular inspection before each play session helps you catch wear early.
