Like accessories one never has too many cat toys right? Play is such an important part of my cats’ life. If we don’t take the time to keep them entertained and wear them out with a bit of play then we enviably end up play for it with some crazy cats at night. I had been curious to see what all the rage was about with these monthly cat subscription boxes so I went for it and ordered the multi cat Kitnipbox.
What is a KitNipBox?
KitNipBox is a cat’s best friend! Each month, our team scours the world for the most amazing cat toys, treats, accessories, and other goodies. The KitNipBox of CMO (Chief Meow Officer), Sylvester, the black cat, and his team of kitty product connoisseurs personally try the items to ensure their absolute purr-fection for kitties everywhere. He then creates a box of unique items and ship it to your doorstep. Purrs all around!
Another thing I love about this subscription box is KitNipBox supports animal welfare organizations nationwide. Each month, we donate a portion of our proceeds and/or products to shelters, rescues, TNR efforts, and a variety of other feline welfare causes.

What was Inside July 2020 KitNipBox
Each one of the boxes contain the best high-quality cat toys, all-natural treats, and other fun, healthy cat products. I also liked that these toys were all different. None of them looked like anything I had seen any pet store before. I did a quick search online and it didn’t look like outside of the treats these were items I could order.
LEAP Asp Wand
Throughout Ancient Egypt the Asp was a symboll of royalty. This adorable wand toy is a lot less serious! Your chowder will remember it instead for its squishy plush head and the fun jingling sound of the hidden bell inside.
($7.00 Value)
Paws ‘N Purrs All Catnip Rainbow
The rainbow is a natural phenomenon noted for its beauty and mystical appearance. It has been a favorite component of mythology throughout history. The appeal of this rainbow is really that it is packed with 100% North American grown catnip.

All for Paws Crinkle Royal Black Sphynx Toss Toy
Our tuxedo cat went right to the box and instantly grabbed this toy out so needless to say this is yet another win. The story of black cats being good luck is believed to have begun in Ancient Egypt with the sacred Bastet, a goddess who was depicted as a cat and was the protector of Egypt! This paw sized version is stuff and has some catnip too!.

Verdict on KitNipBox
This is our FIRST ever subscription box. I guess I am not surprised that I picked to spoil my cats instead of myself. I was skeptical if the cats would really like anything that came in the box. But I have been amazed that everything right now to the box it was shipped in has been a hot it with my cats. I must say the overwhelming smell of catnip probably helps boosts it appeal factor.
My main goal in getting this was to keep up with engaging cats and having play time. Our cats are getting older and I noticed we were so busy with our day jobs they weren’t giving the cats much attention. So this new cat subscription box was in effort to help start the cycle of pay time.
Value wise we paid a $30 for the box and got more than a $37. I actually suspect it’s a bit more since we swapped the treats for an extra toy in our box.
