KONG Play Spaces SeaQuins – Mermaid-Themed Cat Hideaway Toy

KONG Play Spaces SeaQuins – Cat Hideaway

Play Spaces is KONG's line of fabric hideaways, and the reasoning behind all of them is that a cat will use a container long before it will use a toy. The SeaQuins is a crinkle sack that holds its own shape and stays propped open, so a cat can get in, turn round and ambush whatever walks past.

The outside is finished in reversible sequins that flip colour under a paw, a shell toy hangs at the entrance to bat at, and KONG fill it with their premium North American catnip. This one carries barcode 035585457031. KONG no longer list the SeaQuins on their own website.

Performance & Benefits

• Crinkle sack holds its shape and stays open, so a cat can get in and out unaided.
• Reversible sequins give a moving, colour-changing surface to swipe at.
• Hanging shell toy at the entrance encourages batting and catching.
• Crinkle sound gives the hunt an audible reward, which is the trick the whole Play Spaces range relies on.
• Filled with KONG premium North American catnip, the same catnip used across the range.

Suitable For

• Cats that hide, burrow and ambush rather than chase a thrown toy.
• Indoor cats in flats and small houses that need something to do.
• Nervous cats that want somewhere enclosed to retreat into.
• Cats that respond to catnip — a sizeable minority do not, and very young kittens usually do not.
• Not a scratching surface. A cat that needs to scratch wants a proper scratcher, such as the KONG Naturals scratcher, rather than this.

How to Use

• Put it where the cat already chooses to sit, not where you would like it to sit.
• Leave the entrance clear so the cat can leave as fast as it arrived.
• Roll it up and put it away for a fortnight if interest drops, then bring it back out.
• Top the catnip up with KONG Premium Catnip once the original scent fades.
• Spot clean by hand and air dry; do not machine wash or tumble dry a catnip-filled fabric toy.
