Silly Spring

A Springy Toy for Playful Cats

Light enough to rocket off a paw, heavy enough to carry. The patent-pending self-settling design keeps the toy out on the open floor — not under your furniture. Now in a 12-pack.

One Paw Bat, and It's Gone

Charlie has been on quality control since the first prototype. This is what the settling design looks like at full speed.

Stays in Play, Not Under Furniture

A subtle weight bias helps the Silly Spring settle sooner — so it stops where your cat (and you) can actually find it.

Small on Purpose

About the size of a wine cork, and that isn't an accident. A lightweight polypropylene spring rockets off a paw instead of thudding across the floor like the heavier ones do. It's small enough for a cat to pick up and carry, which is most of the fun.

We prototyped larger. The cats lost interest, and oversized coils are something a cat can get a leg caught in. This is the size they kept coming back to.

Engineered, Not Just Molded

Sharp cut ends vs smooth rounded tips comparison

Smooth Rounded Tips

No sharp cut ends. BPA-free, food-safe polypropylene with smooth exterior surfaces throughout.

Durable polypropylene construction - injection molded

Built to Last

Injection-molded from premium polypropylene. Withstands batting, pouncing, chewing, and repeated impacts without cracking.

Four high-visibility cat-friendly spring colors

Colors Cats Can See

Chosen for feline color vision — no reds or oranges cats can't see. Stands out on carpet, wood, and tile.

Made a Few Feet From the Erie Canal

Every Silly Spring is molded in a stone building that went up in the 1800s as a fruit cannery, sitting right on the Erie Canal in Upstate New York. The cannery is long gone. The building is full of small makers now, and one of those shops is ours.

The tooling is designed here. The molding happens here. The bags are packed here. Twenty years of injection molding, fifteen of them building medical devices where a bad part is a serious problem — now pointed at cat toys. Same tolerances. Tougher quality inspectors.

Built by Cat People, for Cat People
