Artisan Catnip Toy | Mabel the Gingerbread Girl – Weighted Holiday Chunkle Chunk Infused with ⊹˚ Miracle Nip ˚⊹ Botanicals for Cats

She is not just a toy. She is the warm spark of holiday mischief your cat has been waiting for, with the satisfying heft of a real catch.

Mabel the Gingerbread Girl was created for cats who tap at light toys once, watch them skitter away, and then wander off. Designed for cats who crave substance in their play, she is precisely weighted to mimic the heft and balance of small prey, like a chipmunk. Her rounded cookie body rolls, tips, and gently resists when your cat makes contact, creating that subtle drag across the floor that says “hold on to this.” Instead of shooting under the sofa, she settles under their paws so they can stalk, pounce, pin, and unleash full-body bunny kicks without losing their grip.

Inside, her spiced-cookie silhouette carries ⊹˚ Miracle Nip ˚⊹, a proprietary botanical blend scientifically shown to activate more scent receptors than catnip alone, sustain play through layered scent release, stimulate natural hunting behavior, and re-engage cats who usually ignore toys. The infusion is pressed in the old French tradition of capturing fragrance slowly, preserving the full aromatic character of each plant while offering a subtle botanical aroma humans enjoy. The result is not a brief burst of excitement, but repeated returns: investigate, grip, wrestle, leave, and come back again.

From across the room, she reads as a tiny piece of holiday décor tucked among winter ceramics or at the edge of the tree skirt. To your cat, she is something entirely different: a familiar gingerbread shape alive with invisible botanical cues and a grounded, prey-like weight that says “catch me and keep me.” Mabel is more than enrichment; she is instinct, sugared and reignited for the season.

FAQ

What makes Chunkles different?
Chunkles are artisan-woven cat toys created through botanical and biological study to engage cats through scent, texture, and instinct. Each is infused with ⊹˚ Miracle Nip ˚⊹, a proprietary blend of thirteen botanicals scientifically shown to activate more scent receptors than catnip alone, sustain play through layered scent release, stimulate natural hunting behavior, and re-engage cats who usually ignore toys. The infusion is pressed in the old French tradition of capturing fragrance slowly, preserving the full aromatic character of each plant. Every Chunkle is crafted by hand with textures chosen for satisfying grip and durability. Lightweight Chunkle Puffs are designed for batting and carrying, while weighted Chunkle Chunks are calibrated to the heft of small natural prey for realistic, grounded play. Each includes a sealed sachet of herbs in a zipper bag to restore scent potency over time. Chunkles unite science, craftsmanship, and design to create toys that are beautiful to live with and deeply engaging for cats.

Why are these toys weighted?
Cats are natural hunters. Toys that feel too light often move in ways that do not read as prey and quickly lose their appeal. Each weighted Chunkle Chunk is calibrated to the weight of a chipmunk, with enough resistance to feel “real” yet light enough to respond when your cat sends it across the floor. That small-prey heft and subtle drag are what invite cats to pin, wrestle, and stay engaged.

Will this interest cats who usually ignore toys?
Yes. ⊹˚ Miracle Nip ˚⊹ activates more scent receptors than catnip alone and sustains play through layered scent release, which draws in even toy-averse cats. The weighted feel adds another layer of interest; the slow roll after a pounce and the way the toy settles under their paws trigger prey recognition, encouraging repeated play instead of quick boredom.

What is Miracle Nip?
⊹˚ Miracle Nip ˚⊹ is a proprietary blend of thirteen botanicals developed through scientific research in plant and animal biology. It is scientifically shown to awaken curiosity, sustain play through layered scent release, stimulate natural hunting behavior, and re-engage cats who usually ignore toys. The infusion is pressed in the old French tradition of capturing fragrance slowly to preserve aromatic depth and create a botanical scent that is pleasant to live with.

Who designs Chunkles?
Chunkles are designed by artists and engineered by scientists trained in both phytochemistry and biology. Every aspect, from the botanical formulation to the tactile weave, is guided by research in feline sensory engagement and plant science.

How should I keep the toy fresh?
Store with your cat’s other toys or in the enclosed sealed pouch. Should your cat one day lose interest, each Chunkle comes with a sealed sachet of herbs in a zipper bag to restore scent potency and extend its appeal.
