We just had the opportunity to test a fun line of kitty products from Vermont-based Tipsy Nip, and they were a huge hit! Tipsy Nip makes a variety of catnip treats and toys that are all durable and non-toxic, plus the kitties love them! Their signature toy is the Tickle Pickle, which comes in the regular 6 inch size, the XL 11 inch size, and for extra interactive fun, check out the Flying Tickle Pickle.
Here are some pix of Ando, Simba and MacKenzie enjoying their Tickle Pickle.
Some of the other fun treats they offer are Tuna Sushi, a yummy snack made with Bonito tuna flakes, Nori seaweed and Tipsy Nip. You can get a big jar of Tipsy Nip all by itself, or try the Tipsy Nip Ball, a non-toxic wooden ball toy infused with organic catnip and soaking in a tin of Tipsy Nip. The Tipsy Nip Balls also come with fun tickle tassels.
All of the Tipsy Nip products come in the cutest packaging and would make great gifts! You can follow Tipsy Nip on Facebook to stay up-to-date on their latest products.

My Pinky would love anything with catnip, she loves to roll in it and wear it on her fun. I joke and say shes part tumbleweed. I also think tickle pickle on a stick would compliment the squeeky sushi on a stick that is sooo popular in our home.
August 5th, 2011 at 5:39 pm
My cat and kids would get a kick out of the pickle! Thanks for having the giveaway!
August 5th, 2011 at 6:28 pm
I think our flock would love the Tickle Pickle, especially since our most senior gato is named Pickles!
August 5th, 2011 at 7:13 pm
I would like to try the prepcat bittie busters
August 5th, 2011 at 11:52 pm

Hecubus would love the Tuna Sushi!!!!!!!!
August 6th, 2011 at 5:47 am
I’m not sure my cat would be able to choose a favorite–I think she would love everything!
August 6th, 2011 at 6:48 am
love the tickle pickle!!!
August 6th, 2011 at 7:39 am
I think my Boyz would LOVE any and all Tipsy Nip toys and nip! The Tipsy Nip ball will get the most play. Thank you, ModernCat, for introducing us to Tipsy Nip.
August 6th, 2011 at 8:01 am
Hilarious! My kittys nickname is picklebumps…pretty sure he would do backflips for this!
August 6th, 2011 at 8:32 am
the picture of that big cat all messed upon catnip on the website is hilarious! my cat would love the tickle pickle, no doubt about it!
August 6th, 2011 at 8:32 am
Definately the Flying Tickle Pickle!
August 6th, 2011 at 9:27 am
Cat nip? Yes, please! My cat would go crazy for any of these fantastic organic cat nip toys. She is a playful little kitty without cat nip, and with cat nip she is even moreso. I know she would spend hours and hours enjoying one of the flying toys: either the flying tickle pickle or the tickle tassel. Thanks for the heads up to a great new product, Moderncat!
August 6th, 2011 at 10:02 am
The tickle pickle would be a hands down favorite! They wore out a similar toy recently and have been missing it!
August 6th, 2011 at 10:38 am
I think my cat would love the Tuna Sushi!
August 6th, 2011 at 10:38 am
Both our cats would love the Tickle Pickle – it’s their preferred shape and size of toy (and of course the catnip makes it even multiple times better).
August 6th, 2011 at 11:07 am
my babies would love the pickle!!!!
August 6th, 2011 at 12:35 pm
the 11″-er Tickle Pickle. You can take sink your teeth into one end, while bunny-kicking the other! genious.
August 6th, 2011 at 3:11 pm
Definitively the Tickle Pickle. I have two big boys so we would need at least three. Two for the daily hoarder to lay on and one to lap out and be available for stealing!
The Nubs looked interesting but I believe they would be gone in a flash so no fun for me. LOL
August 6th, 2011 at 5:04 pm
My kids would LOVE these toys especially the Tickle Pickle, Tipsy Nip and the Tickle Tassle Balls! What fun they would have!
August 6th, 2011 at 5:17 pm
Oh, Tajar would LOVE any of these toys! But, if I had to guess what his favorite would be, it would have to be the Tickle Pickle. He’s always been partial to kick toys. The pickle is a great size and so cute!
August 6th, 2011 at 5:50 pm
My 3 would all luv the Flying Tickle Pickle…great giveaway, thanks!!!
August 6th, 2011 at 5:56 pm
my cats helped me look and we like the tickle tassel best! looks like lots of fun trying to grab all the tassels (that what they said …).
August 6th, 2011 at 7:05 pm
My cats would definitely love the Flying Tickle Pickle!
August 6th, 2011 at 7:24 pm
I think my Kids would like the Tickle Pickle, and the Tickle Tassels.
Also I am going to order one of their T-Shirts for myself from their
website.
August 6th, 2011 at 7:38 pm
Definitely the tickle pickle. Perfect for bunny kicking and biting!
August 6th, 2011 at 7:38 pm
My cat loves mauling stuff animals so the tickle pickle would be the best for her.
August 6th, 2011 at 8:23 pm
I love the Tickle Pickle. I think mah kitties will too.
August 6th, 2011 at 10:04 pm
Cats would go crazy over the Tuna Sushi with the Tipsy Nip. I would too
August 6th, 2011 at 10:20 pm
The flying Tickle Pickle will drive my boys C-R-A-Z-Y!
August 6th, 2011 at 10:52 pm
I’m thinking the tickle tassle for my cat.
August 6th, 2011 at 10:58 pm
Without a doubt, the Tickle Pickle would be Imp’s favorite. She loves the kickers and filled with nip? Heaven to her.
August 7th, 2011 at 12:23 am
I’d go for either the flying pickle or the rolling ball…but what I’d really like is the cat whose picture is featured on the website’s splash page!
August 7th, 2011 at 2:36 am
The original pickle would be a hit with Hops, but our Pumpkin would certainly prefer the sushi!<3
August 7th, 2011 at 7:49 am
Dominic The Cat, who sends me thought haikus, tells me:
Thinking expecting / The Flying Tickle Pickle / Happy hours soon
August 7th, 2011 at 7:57 am
The Flying Tickle Pickle looks awesome!
August 7th, 2011 at 7:57 am
My cats would all love the Tickle Tassel
August 7th, 2011 at 8:03 am
I have three cats of my own and volunteer at an animal sanctuary that has about 80 cats / kittens on a regular basis. Catnip is a favorite and the tickle pickle looks like awesome fun!!
August 7th, 2011 at 8:05 am
The flying tickle pickle! My cat would love to play with this because he loves to jump and bat things around.
August 7th, 2011 at 8:24 am
My two boys are 15 year old brothers who still have some playful moments. They would like the pickle for sure.
I wonder if the Debra Vermeulen who posted on Aug. 7 is my former student at RSHS? If so, where is the shelter? The RSHS office could put you in touch with me.
August 7th, 2011 at 8:30 am
I have 5 indoor cats. Some like catnip, some do not. But they all love things that I can make fly through the air for them. The jumps and backflips are outstanding. I can just imagine them playing with the pickle!!
August 7th, 2011 at 9:33 am
My cat would like the tipsy nip ball since he is all about batting and chasing things, and he loves cat nip.
August 7th, 2011 at 9:36 am
I can already see Sancho loving the Flying Tickle Pickle!
August 7th, 2011 at 10:46 am
my cats would LOVE tuna sushi!
August 7th, 2011 at 10:59 am
The Tickle Pickle is a definite must have! My cats have a catnip cigar that is their current fav… organic catnip, long shape, they love it – so I’m sure the Tickle Pickle would equally be in demand!
August 7th, 2011 at 11:01 am
My kitties would love the Tickle Pickle! They are natrually jumpers but when you give them something to jump for they are amazing! I’ve never had cats that jump like mine do now. We want the Tickle Pickle!!!
August 7th, 2011 at 11:26 am
My cats go crazy over catnip! I think this catnip toy would be much enjoyed with my 6 cats. The more catnip, the merrier!
August 7th, 2011 at 11:39 am
A flying tickle pickle would be a great conversation piece, not to mention something my cats would love.
August 7th, 2011 at 12:11 pm
Definitely the Tuna Sushi!!
August 7th, 2011 at 12:27 pm
Our cat and kitten would like the Tickle Tassel, because they’re very picky about their toys. It seems like we’d all have the most fun together with the tassel because they both love chasing things, a lot. Plus, I think it would save our hands from the kitten’s destructive tendencies.
