Trixie mouse spring toy TX-4070 — pet toy mouse on a spring for cats

Trixie mouse spring toy TX-4070 — pet toy mouse on a spring for cats is a compact interactive toy shaped like a small mouse mounted on a coil spring. Designed for indoor use, the toy bounces, wobbles and spins when touched, imitating prey movement to stimulate a cat’s natural hunting instincts. It is intended to encourage physical activity and mental engagement in domestic cats, helping reduce boredom and sedentary behaviour.

Advantages

Its small size makes it suitable for placement on floors or flat surfaces without occupying much space. The construction is lightweight and easy to move by a cat’s paw, offering continuous play with minimal human involvement. The design focuses on stimulating exercise and mental engagement while being simple to use and position in a home environment.

Suitable for

• Indoor cats that need additional stimulation and exercise
