FAQ

What makes this cat toy different from others?
Twila L’Étoile is not a mass-made, generic plush. She is a handmade, 2" flat Chunkle Puff woven from premium fibers and filled with our exclusive ⊹˚ Miracle Nip ˚⊹ botanical blend. Durable enough for heavy pouncing yet refined enough to look elegant in the home, she offers both beauty and irresistible play value.

Is this toy good for cats who normally ignore toys?
Yes. Twila was designed with toy-averse cats in mind. Her lightweight, flat form is easy to bat and carry, while the Miracle Nip botanicals awaken natural curiosity. Cats who normally ignore ordinary toys often find themselves enchanted by her fragrance and texture.

What is Miracle Nip?
⊹˚ Miracle Nip ˚⊹ is Minou Le-Mew’s signature botanical blend, created by a chemist as a refined alternative to standard catnip. Using a traditional enfleurage method, it combines catnip, silver vine, valerian, gall fruit, kuppaimeni, and other rare herbs to spark fascination and sustain engagement.

How do I keep Twila’s scent fresh?
Each toy comes with a sealed pouch of herbs to help preserve and refresh her aroma between play sessions. Simply store Twila in the pouch when not in use, and her fragrance will remain as captivating as the day she arrived.

Do these plants get my cat “high”?
No. Catnip and the other botanicals in our Miracle Nip blend don’t act like a drug. When cats smell them, the compounds activate scent pathways that mimic feline social and pheromonal signals, which cascade into instinctive hunting and play behaviors. Unlike a drug, these botanicals are not metabolized in your cat’s body — the effect is entirely scent-driven and temporary. What you’re seeing is natural, instinctive play being awakened, not intoxication.

Lorebook Entry – Twila L’Étoile

Twila L’Étoile was not born but descended — a shimmer in the night sky that fell gently into the Grove. Cats say she arrived wrapped in starlight, her soft form glowing faintly as she landed among the leaves. Unlike the others, she did not wander or hide at first. She simply sparkled, and the Grove itself seemed to hush in her presence.

When the vines of ⊹˚ Miracle Nip ˚⊹ brushed against her, their fragrance fused with her star-born fibers, awakening something radiant within her. From then on, she was no longer just a star-shaped toy — she was a beacon of delight, irresistible even to cats who never cared for play.

Now Twila drifts through the Grove like a tiny constellation, rediscovered again and again as if newly fallen. Whether tucked into secret corners or paraded proudly in the open, she remains a reminder that some treasures are meant to shine forever, their brilliance returning each time they are found.
