ABSTRACT:
There is provided a plastic object for attracting a cat formed by impregnating particulate matter, such as particles of catnip, into the object during the molding process. Preferably, the plastic is a soft, pliable thermoplastic, such as styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer, ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer, a polyethylene homopolymer or a flexible polyvinyl chloride compound. The plastic object is structurally sound to avoid excessive wear and tear and, yet, soft and pliable to permit a cat to enjoy the object and provide consumers with the perception that the object will not hurt the cat. Furthermore, the molded object has the aroma of the catnip emitting therefrom.
