What Makes Silvervine Balls Popular Among Cat Owners?

Silvervine (also called Matatabi) has been used in Asia for generations as a natural stimulant for cats. Many pet owners find that even cats who are not interested in catnip respond strongly to silvervine. The attraction is caused by two natural compounds in the plant that trigger playful and relaxing behavior.

How Our Silvervine Balls Are Made

At XuanchuPet, the silvervine balls are produced from raw matatabi branches that are dried, polished, and pressed into a round shape without chemical additives. Each piece keeps its natural wood aroma and texture.

  • 100% natural material

  • No artificial fragrance

  • Safe for chewing and biting

  • Smooth surface to protect gums

This simple structure makes the toy safe for both independent play and supervised chewing sessions.

Benefits for Cats

  • Helps reduce boredom and stress

  • Encourages natural chewing behavior

  • Supports dental cleaning through gentle friction

  • Suitable for kittens and adult cats

Many customers use silvervine toys as part of their cat’s daily enrichment routine.

Potential Risks & Precautions

Like all natural wood toys, moderation is important.

  • Some cats may become overly excited—limit first-time use to short sessions.

  • Replace the toy when it becomes too small or heavily damaged.

  • Always supervise cats that chew very aggressively.

These precautions help ensure that the product is used safely and delivers long-term value.
