"Rodeo" Dual Texture Catnip Mouse
Most catnip mouse toys look the same - single fabric, single texture, forgettable. The GISHIKI "Rodeo" is built to hold attention longer.
The Rodeo combines two materials in one toy: a soft plush upper body for biting and carrying, and a textured linen lower body for pawing and kicking. Cats experience the two surfaces differently:
- The plush triggers holding and bunny-kicking instincts,
- The linen creates the resistance that makes batting satisfying.
Together they keep the toy interesting longer than single-texture alternatives.
The catnip infusion is strong enough to trigger a response on first contact and maintains scent through repeated play sessions. At 14 cm, it's sized for cats to carry, toss, and wrestle with naturally - not so small it gets lost, not so large it becomes awkward. Handmade with no plastic components, no harmful dyes, and no toxins anywhere in the construction.
Japanese-inspired design, cat behaviour-informed. A toy that earns its place in the rotation.
