Key points
- B07 contains catnip; B08 contains no catnip.
- The long kicker and the mouse shape serve different play styles.
- Single-toy packs and mixed sets give retailers different ways to present the range.
A useful cat toy range gives customers a clear choice: a long toy to hold and kick, a mouse-shaped toy to pursue, or both. Our B07 Shaggy Catnip Kicker and B08 Fuzzy Plush Mouse bring those two formats together, with a straightforward difference in filling: B07 contains catnip; B08 does not.
For brands and retailers, this creates two distinct product stories. B07 combines a long-pile surface, elongated body and catnip filling. B08 combines brown and cream faux fur with fabric ears and a flat tail, offering a catnip-free choice. Here is how to select and present them in your range.
Cat kicker vs plush mouse at a glance
| Feature | Our B07 catnip kicker | Our B08 plush mouse |
|---|---|---|
| Body shape | Long, rounded body | Oval mouse body with ears and a tail |
| Surface | Long-pile plush | Brown and cream faux fur with fabric details |
| Filling | Fiber filling with catnip | Fiber filling without catnip |
| Play focus | Grasping, wrestling and hind-paw kicking | Chasing, pawing and pouncing |
| Visual character | Simple elongated silhouette with a shaggy texture | Recognizable mouse shape with a cream face and flat brown tail |
| Range role | Catnip-filled kicker option | Catnip-free mouse option |
| Presentation idea | A long single-toy pack showing the plush body | A single-toy pack or a mouse assortment |
Choose by the play format and filling your customers want. B07 is the natural starting point for a catnip kicker selection. B08 suits a mouse toy selection or a catnip-free section. Together, they broaden the choice without repeating the same shape.
B07: a long plush body for grasping and kicking
The defining feature of our B07 is its elongated, rounded body. It gives a cat room to hold the toy with the front paws and kick with the hind paws. The long-pile surface makes the body look full and gives the product a distinctive texture on a retail shelf or product page.
Long kicker toys are an established format: KONG describes its Kickeroo Cactus as a long toy for wrestling and hind-paw kicking. Our B07 brings this play format to our range with its own simple, shaggy body and catnip filling.
B07 is a useful choice when your existing selection is dominated by balls or small animal shapes. It adds a different silhouette, and its purpose is easy to explain in a product title, comparison chart or collection page: a catnip-filled plush kicker for grasp-and-kick play.
The reference size for B07 is 28 × 12 cm. Its long body also gives you a clear starting point for planning a retail sleeve, tray or display position. Our color references include gray, peach and mint green, allowing you to explore a neutral or softer palette for your brand.
B08: a catnip-free mouse for chasing and pouncing
Our B08 uses a different visual language. The oval body, small fabric ears, cream face and flat brown tail create a recognizable mouse shape. Instead of the long body of a kicker, it offers a defined prey silhouette for chasing and pouncing during supervised play.
B08 contains no catnip. This makes the distinction easy for shoppers: choose the B07 for catnip filling or the B08 for a catnip-free plush mouse. You can communicate this directly in product descriptions and comparison graphics without asking customers to interpret a filling specification.
For a retailer with several kicker toys, B08 adds another shape to the collection. For a brand building a mouse-themed assortment, its brown and cream appearance provides a starting point for coordinating product images, labels and packaging. Explore our wands and chase toys to see how it fits alongside the wider range.
Comparing the plush textures and product details
B07’s long pile emphasizes its rounded body and soft outline. B08’s faux-fur surface works with fabric ears and a flat tail to build a more detailed animal shape. These differences help each product stand on its own in a collection photograph.
The long-pile body of B07 contrasts with the mouse’s shaped face, fabric ears and flat tail.
When planning your product page, show the whole toy first, then use a close-up to explain its texture and shape. For B07, a side view highlights the long body. For B08, a three-quarter view brings the face, ears and tail into the same frame. This gives shoppers useful visual information rather than several nearly identical images.
Keep the naming consistent across the listing, packaging and collection page. “Shaggy Catnip Kicker” makes B07’s format and filling clear. “Fuzzy Plush Mouse” identifies B08 by its texture and shape; a separate “without catnip” attribute makes its filling easy to compare.
Which toy fits your assortment?
The strongest reason to add either product is a clear role in your range. Use the following combinations to plan the offer:
| Your range goal | Suggested choice | How to present it |
|---|---|---|
| Add a long grasp-and-kick toy | B07 | Lead with the long plush body and catnip filling |
| Add a catnip-free animal shape | B08 | Lead with the mouse silhouette and catnip-free filling |
| Expand a collection of balls and wands | B07 or both | Introduce a different body format and explain its play style |
| Offer two contrasting plush formats | B07 and B08 | Compare long kicker vs mouse, and catnip vs no catnip |
| Build a coordinated gift or retail set | B07 and B08 | Give each toy a visible position in the pack |
A two-product assortment works best when the difference stays visible. Give each item a distinct title and a clear role. For a mixed set, explain what is included and describe the two play formats, so the set has a purpose beyond containing two plush toys.
Single-toy packaging or a mixed retail set?
B07’s long shape suits a layout that shows its body length and plush surface. B08 benefits from a presentation that keeps the mouse face visible and gives the ears and tail room. These differences are useful when choosing the orientation of a tray, sleeve or display card.
A long tray presents the kicker’s body, while a separate mouse tray leaves space around its ears and tail.
For individual listings, use one clear front image for each toy and make the filling difference easy to find. A simple “with catnip” attribute for B07 and “without catnip” attribute for B08 helps customers compare the options at a glance.
For a mixed pack, a practical starting point is one B07 plus one B08 per set. Position both toys so shoppers can identify the long kicker and mouse immediately. A shared card can introduce the collection, while the contents list identifies each toy and its filling. This layout also gives you a clear brief for coordinating the pack artwork.
When requesting a quote, specify the number of individual toys or the number of sets. An order of 500 sets containing one of each product means 500 B07 toys and 500 B08 toys. Clear units make the product and packaging scope easier to plan.
Building the offer around your brand
Start with the play story you want to tell: a catnip kicker, a catnip-free mouse, or a complementary pair. Then coordinate the color direction, label placement and retail presentation around that choice.
For B07, the long plush surface is the main visual feature. Keep packaging artwork simple enough to let the texture show. For B08, use the face and mouse silhouette as the visual focus and leave the ears and tail visible. A consistent background and lighting style can bring both products into one collection while preserving their differences.
