SwabSnack Catnip Chew Sticks - 6 Pieces

Cats have a short list of things worth biting, and almost nothing a shop sells is on it. Cotton buds are on it. So are pipe cleaners, drinking straws and anything shaped like a stick.

The SwabSnack Catnip Chew Sticks take that shape and make it cat-sized and cat-safe — 15 cm of tightly wound felt with a soft bulb at each end, filled with dried catnip.

Six to a pack, either in mixed colours or in natural beige. The felt is dense enough to be bitten, kicked and carried about for weeks.

Why You'll Love It

🐱 The Shape Cats Already Want
Long, thin and light enough to flick across a floor. It gets carried in the mouth, dropped at the top of the stairs and batted under the sofa — which is the whole idea.

🌱 Real Catnip, Not Scent Spray
The catnip is dried and sealed inside the felt rather than sprayed on the outside, so it keeps working after the first week.

🦷 Something To Chew That Should Be Chewed
The textured felt rubs along the teeth and gums while they chew. It is not a dental treatment, but it is a far better target than a phone cable.

🦵 Kick Toys As Well As Chew Toys
Cats grab them in the front paws and rabbit-kick with the back ones. At 15 cm it is exactly the length that invites it.

🏠 Six Means Six Places
One by the door, one under the radiator, one in the cat tree. Having them scattered about is how they keep getting used.

🔇 Silent On Hard Floors
Felt makes no noise at two in the morning, which cannot be said for bells or crinkle toys.

🪶 Light Enough To Throw
They weigh almost nothing, so a flick of the wrist sends one down a hallway and the chase starts without you getting up.

👐 No Hard Parts
No plastic clips, no wire core, no bell to come loose. Just felt and catnip.

😺 For The Indoor Cat Who Is Bored
Boredom shows up as scratched furniture and 5 a.m. shouting. A handful of things worth biting takes the edge off both.

🎁 A Good Small Gift
Six sticks in a pack is the kind of thing that goes in a card or on top of a bigger present for someone with a cat.

Looking After Them

Do not machine wash — it felts the fibres and washes the catnip straight out. Brush off fur by hand and leave them in a bag between sessions if you want the scent to last.

Catnip strength varies naturally from batch to batch, and roughly a third of cats do not respond to it at all. Those cats usually still chase the stick.

Six sticks, one very busy cat 🐈
