Our Story
As Burmese breeders, we understand cats’ love of, and need for toys. Burmese mothers start introducing their babies to toys before the kittens can walk! The kittens grow up loving sounds that crinkle, tinkle and rattle. Their greatest fun is chasing and catching the “prey” on the ends of teasers.
Our kittens go to their owners with a goody bag of toys. Finding inspiring, suitable, affordable and safe toys was the challenge. The solution was to make the toys ourselves. Over time, the toys evolved, manufacturing methods were refined and our range of toys expanded. Most rewarding was the demand for our toys from fellow cat lovers, a demand that grew and grew and grew!
Feline Fun Factory was formalised in 2018 and our part-time hobby became a dedicated commitment. We are fanatical about two things: quality and safety.
Wherever possible we use natural materials and we make no compromises. When you get a Feline Fun Factory cat toy, you are assured that it is made to our high standards and that your cat will be thrilled with the new acquisition. We continue to make the toys ourselves with love.
