---"I want to add my praise for WiggleLegs Frog toy. My cat
loves to play with
WiggleLegs. No other toy will do. When I ask her to find
WiggleLegs she goes right to it! I just ordered 3 more as I'm afraid
you will stop making them and then I don't know what we will do!"
---"Once again, you have provided excellent
service with an excellent product. Thanks for the extra - it was a hit!
My cats are totally addicted to the
WiggleLegs Frog, so please keep plenty in stock!"
 ---"I
just wanted to let you know that my cat, Molly, is absolutely addicted
to your
FlyToys.
I literally have to hide them from her so she will go to sleep at night,
but as soon as morning arrives she is sitting right in front of their
hiding place waiting for them to come out and play."
Each MetPet FlyToy is
handmade by skilled artisans with great attention to detail. They
come in the form of bugs, amphibians, mammals and more in three very
reasonable price points.

company understands cats so well" |
