The Real Truth About Poisonous Honeysuckle!
 3 Little Known Facts You Must Know...

Fact #1

In the family of honeysuckle that we use there are over 65 species of honeysuckle.  It is important to do research on the honeysuckle in your vicinity.  An excellent source of this kind of information on all kinds of house and garden plants can be found at http://hortiplex.gardenweb.com

Fact #2

It is the berries only of our honeysuckle that are reported as being mildly toxic to humans.

Fact #3

We only harvest these shrubs in the spring or fall when there are no leaves or berries present.  Since only the wood is used in our toys, harvesting at these times makes it easier to keep the honeysuckle wood free of leaves and berries.

We have observed dozens of cats scratching on these honeysuckle shrubs when the berries are present.  They don't seem to be even attracted to the berries at any time.

Our own cats have lived with the honeysuckle cuttings in our storage facility for 8 years - rubbing, playing, chewing, napping contentedly - with absolutely no side effects.

"It has come to our attention that there is a concern with the safety of using honeysuckle n toys for cats.  Our clinic has carried the Kitty Kottage line of honeysuckle toys since early 2001 and to date we have not seen any allergic reactions or poisonings from the toys.  We have had no clients voice concerns or worries over these products.  The plant part is inside the toy so that there is no ingestion of the plant.  Honeysuckle is a very nice alternative to catnip, and it sells very well.  A lot of customers return to purchase new toys as their cats love them.  We will continue to carry these inexpensive toys that cats love, and continue to offer then as a viable alternative to catnip toys."  Dr. Dell, D.V.M., Animal Ark Pet Clinic, Edmonton, Canada

We certify - without reservation - that the Honeysuckle we use is completely safe for your cats.
