I'm not sure if this is the right forum to post in for my question, so if it is not in the right place feel free to move it.

It's almost my kitties birthday and I want to get them some cat nip stuffed toys that they can use to bunny kick and hug.  We have a few old cat nip pillows but they have lost their potency.  However,sometimes the cats lick them and lay on them.  I would love some suggestions, I'm not sure what brands are really good.

They absolutely LOVE the Cosmic Catnip Bananas and Cigars.  Somebody on here reviewed those recently too.  They seem to hold potency forever and are just the right size and toughness for serious rabbit kicking and biting.  The cigars have the advantage of being made of BROWN material so they don't show the dirt.  The bananas quickly get stained from the inside out from wet catnip, but the cat's could care less.  I sometimes look at mine and wonder if it would be worth emptying them, washing them and stuffing with new Cosmic Catnip (still the best brand by far) but I realize they would soon be stained again.  I was lucky and scored a large number of them from a store that was closing, so I only paid $2 apiece.  Usually they are about $4.49 at Petco, and well worth it!  Also, you can revive your pillow toys by buying some catnip (Cosmic brand of course, and no, I do not work for them!) and putting the catnip and the pillow in a plastic bag and letting it steep for awhile.  I do that frequently to "renew" the toys' flavor, but have never done it for the cigars and bananas yet because they just keep on attracting the cats.
