Handmade Catnip Toy | Ruby the Solstice Apple – A Winter Chunkle Puff Infused with ⊹˚ Miracle Nip ˚⊹ Botanicals for Cats - Lightweight

Ruby the Solstice Apple carries the spirit of life that endures through winter’s stillness. 

In old Solstice traditions, apples were kept through the darkest months as reminders of warmth and light yet to return. Ruby brings that same quiet promise into your home — a spark of color and motion for the cats of the Grove when play feels far away. Her woven texture grips claws perfectly for batting, pouncing, and bunny kicking, while her soft, balanced form invites satisfying capture and carry.

Designed by a scientist who studies how plants influence animal behavior, Ruby is filled with ⊹˚ Miracle Nip ˚⊹, a proprietary botanical blend scientifically shown to awaken feline 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, preserving the full aromatic character of each plant.

Cats return to Ruby again and again, drawn by her scent and the instinctive satisfaction of play that feels alive. In every leap, she carries the Solstice promise: even in the quiet of winter, joy waits just beneath the surface.

What makes Chunkles different?

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 match the heft of natural prey for realistic play. Each includes a sealed sachet of herbs in a zipper bag to restore scent potency over time.
