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.

August 7th, 2011 at 12:45 pm
I think my two cat’s would love the tickle pickle! They play with everything that is long, small and full of nip. So, yes. Definitely the tickle pickle!

When my kitty, Emerson, is not bent on being the World’s Orneriest Kitty, he is determined to making kitty leaping an Olympic sport! The Flying Tickle Pickle would be just the lure needed to take his acrobatics to even greater heights!
August 7th, 2011 at 1:20 pm
Two of my cats would go nuts for any of it except the fish treats (we can’t have fish here) and the other could care less about the nip.

August 7th, 2011 at 7:35 pm
My 8 kitties would line up for a turn batting at a Tickle Pickle! Cute name.
August 7th, 2011 at 8:06 pm
The ball would be perfect in our blended cat and dog space! No temptation for the doggies, like the softer toys, but plenty of fun for the kitties! The fishing toys look like a winner, as well, because I am allergic to cats but still like to interact and play with them.
August 7th, 2011 at 10:36 pm
My cats would love the tickle tassel.
August 8th, 2011 at 4:45 am

We just got two new kitties from our local shelter, and it is obvious that they love EVERYTHING. That said, I think they would really dig the tickle pickle. I am glad to see a company obviously committed to reducing their environmental impact and am glad to learn about them!
August 8th, 2011 at 9:42 am
So many cool toys and stuff but the tickle tassel looks like lots of fun!!! My 3 kitties will love it
August 8th, 2011 at 10:16 am
Oh, our Gavin would love the one and only Flying Tickle Pickle — he could use the exercise.
Our Nikko, on the other hand, is quite the connoisseur of gourmet cat nip and would simply relish the Organic Tipsy Nip.

My cats have spoken and they agree, it’s the tickle pickle for them (although they assure me any of the Tipsy Nip products would be a very welcome addition to their kitty toy box). Thanks!

August 8th, 2011 at 3:57 pm
Tickle pickle would be wonderful. Freddy & Darby love their catnip, each react in a different way. It is soooo fun to watch!
August 8th, 2011 at 4:04 pm
I would say the Tickle Pickle or the Flying Pickle. They are so cute and my cats love things they can bunny kick and interactive toys like the Flying Pickle. Personally, I love the names of the products!!
August 8th, 2011 at 5:36 pm
