Such a toy can be made of any shape, the cat will adore it because of the filling!
Catnip, or catnip, is a herbaceous plant whose leaves and stems have a pleasant aroma of citrus and rose. Cats love this herb, and veterinarians recommend it when the cat needs to relieve stress or, conversely, get out of a lethargic and passive state, also mint can improve appetite and positively affect digestion. It is better that the cat sniffed mint rather than eating it: if it eats too much, digestion, on the contrary, can be upset. Therefore, one of the good ways is a toy filled with dried grass. A toy with catnip is best given to the cat from time to time, not too often - just 20 minutes a week is enough to avoid excessive addiction. Cats have a sensitive sense of smell, and they smell mint even through dense material, for example, through felt. But you can sew a toy from any not too thin fabric. The form can also be any, albeit in the form of a simple pillow - for the cat, the content of the toy will be the main thing. You can buy catnip at pet stores.
