Anyone with a cat knows that some felines just aren’t impressed by catnip, no matter how many toys promise to deliver the magic. But the Catstages Strawbabies Interactive Cat Dental Toys are winning over even the most unimpressed pets, with reviewers calling them “fantastic,” “amazing,” and the rare toy that keeps cats entertained without any help.

One shopper titled their review “Endless play time!” and shared, “My two kitties are OBSESSED with these.” They added that the small strawberry shapes are perfect for fetch, and their cats love to carry them around the house. Each order includes three three-packs, which means plenty of backups when one inevitably ends up under the couch.

The Strawbabies are filled with catnip and finished with soft mesh and feathers, combining scent, texture, and motion to trigger play. “She goes flying up and down the long apartment corridor giving chase,” one reviewer wrote about a cat who usually turns her nose up at toys. “She whacks them and sends them flying, then chases them some more.”

That kind of enthusiasm is echoed across thousands of reviews. “Our cat loves to lick these, carry them, and throw them around,” another person shared. “It’s a joy just to watch all the fun she has with her strawberries.”

The outer mesh and crinkle material offer more than just stimulation. Several reviewers said their cats simply like to chew on the Strawbabies, which is ideal for teething or dental support. “If you have a cat that likes to rip and pull, this is the toy,” one person confirmed.

With over 16,000 five-star reviews and repeat purchases from cat parents who say the toys hold up surprisingly well, the Catstages Strawbabies are earning their spot as a go-to. If your cat could use a new outlet for their energy, these $4 toys might just become their next obsession.
