Aumüller Ferret Cat Toy

Terrible smell throughout the whole house!

The toy has a strong scent and it used to be my cat’s absolute favourite. I bought my cat a new ferret toy, but the quality has changed. Now the fur on the ferret is smoother and feels more plastic. My cat licked the toy a lot and after a couple of days, she vomited up a big clump of hair that had built up inside her. With this quality, I wouldn’t recommend the toy.

My cats love it, but some kind of sand comes out and now I have it all over the house.

I’ve been buying these ferrets for a while now because they always got worn out quickly from play. But now I’ve noticed that the new ones still look like they did on day one, and it’s not fake fur. I recently bought a carpet and ended up with some carpet beetles, and sometimes I see larvae on the ferrets. Larvae only go for organic stuff like wool or real fur. I’m vegan and really pay attention to this. If this is fur from abused animals?! I already contacted Aumüller and they said it’s fake fur. That’s not true.

My cat hates it, if I put it down next to her she jumps a metre away and runs to the other side of the flat. It’s probably too smelly for her too.

The toy was smelling like something had rotted under heavy rain. I had to throw away the toy after a couple of days, as the smell never went away. Also, the cats didn’t even play with the toy.

The cat played with the ferret, but every time they played, his mouth was full of synthetic fur because the ferret shed a lot.

I bought this product in 2023 and the ferret smelled so bad that it was almost impossible to stay in the room when it was out of the box. Bought again in 2026, it barely has any scent and the cat isn’t interested.
