Catnip bubbles...too funny!

My kitties are a bit tipsy at the moment. I broke out the catnip bubbles a little while ago- and they love them! I bought some catnip bubbles a while back and haven't used them recently because i thought they didn't like them. Now that Kojak is older though- i thought i'd give it another go...glad i did- the kitties love them now

Kojak and Jasmine were running all over the living room chasing them. Velvet was watching them act like idiots, and Isabella even tried to get a few. Jezabel ran and hid from the "killer bubbles" (it was kind of cute- one landed on her nose and poped- then she hissed at it and ran off to hide)

Fosters the dog seems to enjoy them too! He hops up on his back legs and tries to catch them in his mouth I swear he thinks he's a cat Anyone else have furbabies that love catnip bubbles?

I haven't tried them before, but I doubt my kits would like them...they're immune to catnip () and adore bee balm. Bee balm bubbles, though - now that's something I'd like to try!

my friend bought my cats catnip bubbles and to say the least Miagi and Tiger and my pups are scared of them. I am glad your babies are having fun with them, though I thought they were cool but I guess my furkiddos didn't think so. they enjoy catnip more without the bubbles.

I gather lots of cats do like them -- go crazy over them, even. Not mine. They are not happy about bubbles, and slink off to safety all the while looking warily over their shoulders. It's kind of funny to watch, but there's definitely no point offering them bubbles. And they DO like catnip.

Fosters LOVES them. He jumps up in the air to catch them, and then after they've poped and left the catnip scent on the carpet, he'll lay on his back and shake his little butt while rolling all over my carpets and he'll lick the floor- it's like he's high from the catnip just like the kitties It's soo funny!

Popsie used to have some and he loved them too. I think they accidentally got thrown out so I need to buy some more. Him and I have a blast with those bubbles.

I'm pretty sure you can get them at petsmart or petco.

hah, we tried them once, long, long ago. As I recall, they didn't go over well. The kitties just ignored them, and to make matters worse, the bubbles left a sticky mess everywhere, lol

I have to see if Walmart in Canada has those! Abby would be afraid of them at first but her addiction to catnip would win her over, hehe

Chynna would love chasing those.

I've heard of them but haven't tried it yet. Zoe does enjoy catnip so if she isn't afraid of the bubbles (likely), it sounds like it would be alot of fun!

Are kids' nontoxic bubbles safe for them? I've never seen the catnip kind, but I know mine will chase anything that moves and might like bubbles.

I get a mixed reaction from my four with the bubbles. The first time I tried them, they were all scared of them. After they got older I tried them again and it was hilarious! Trinity, Nemo and Mercury all chase them, Bentley watches them (I think he is still a little scared). Trinity and Mercury both hiss at the bubbles too.

I was just about to ask the same question!

I've never heard of catnip bubbles before: I just HAVE to get some!

Mi-ke loves those bubbles, but she doesn't seem to have a catnip response (even though she responds to catnip). She likes to check them out as they land (ideally--in my book--on her head). I like them about as much as she does (although I don't chase them, ahem). But they leave residue everywhere.

I tried these once with Bea, who loves catnip, but she hated them. I guess they scared her...

But the new kitties might like them... Chloe will probably be scared of them but I bet Berach would go nuts for them.

Same here. Maybe I'll give them a go again with the new kitten.

Neither of my cats were the least bit interested.

I haven't tried them for a long time. Stuart would probably LOVE them. He's a FREAK about catnip. He will rip your hand off if it even smells like it. When I tried it last Enzo liked them somewhat....at least until one popped on his noise
