Are these hard foam or squishy foam? I'm looking to replace some squishy foam balls that my cats go nuts over. They don't play with hard balls.

These are great. My cat is a retriever. I throw it -he chases and gets it-then returns it to me. Just like a dog. It's so light and can hold in it;s mouth.

They're squishy. My cat won't play with hard balls either, but these are great.

These are squishy and my cats love playing with them. They can carry them around in their mouths and love when they bounce! And they really love hiding them under the furniture so mom has to go find them!!!

These are squishy. My cat also won't play with hard foam balls, but these she loves and can grab them and carry them back upstairs after knocking and chasing them down the steps

They are soft foam. My cat picks them up in her mouth and tosses them. She loves them so much I had to reorder.

No they don't. They are just fluff filled toy mice. They are sturdy against light play, but the cat can easily rip them up if he or she breaks the seam. Nothing bad inside just brown batting you would normally see in toys.

They'r soft and do squeak. After some initial play, our ball had trouble re-inflating (we had to manipulate it back into shape). The material isn't as high of quality as the squeaky balls that come in packs of 4 at Petsmart. We have a Border Collie and this ball wasn't durable enough for her play needs.

I'm a little confused by the question, but you can't pop these balls. They are made from some solid material. They are not hollow and therefore cound not pop.

I haven't aired them back up, as another user suggested, so find them extremely soft. I would think they'd pale in comparison to something like a tennis ball or Trigger Point ball on your back. However, I haven't tried to really pump them up and see. Good luck!

That's an interesting question. I have noticed a little hardening after a couple of weeks but my cat still eats them right up (I hide them in her kibble and she can't tell the difference). My first thought would be to try those terra cotta brown sugar savers. You moisten them and them towel dry them and put them in bags of hardened sugar and they magically restore moisture levels. That may work with those chews? But I agree that the safest would be to contact the manufacturer and ask them. Good luck and please keep us updated if anything works!

There is NO REAL FUR in these little balls. Your cats will love them. Mine plays fetch with them. Hours of fun for your cat and you laughing at them playing with them.

I didnt realize that bouncing counted. But yes, they will bounce. they arent hard, but almost like a raquetball with dimples

Nope. They are very durable. They will puncture and lose some bounce, and my Lab chews constantly. These are the only balls he does destroy in a minute. He has some that altho a bitted ragged are months old. Certainly well worth a try.

No kidding!! EVERY brand is the same shape, same hardness. I swear they are all made by the same company and just resold under different packaging, so don't bother trying to get a different brand. I tried cutting them up and mixing them into wet food (to which I always add a little water anyway). My thought is that they would soften and take on the smell/taste of the wet food I know they like. It seemed to work OK (just OK), but I couldn't tell if BOTH of my cats were getting dosed and by how much. I finally just switched to a powder form that should mix evenly with a wet food, which I can better monitor.

I have tons of these in various drawers around the house and have never noticed any lack of bounce. One of my 4 cats still loves these and never tires of chasing these balls up or down the stairs. The others seem to get bored after a few throws. I am super happy with these but will try the Angry Birds plastic balls as well.

They are hard to break. In fact the my dog had a hard time crewing it. She was trying to chew up the kittys new toys, I caught her and she bite it in half. Hard for a cat to break threw it. I step on them all the time and they are still together.

As I mentioned in an earlier review, when I first started ordering these for my cat she loved them and her skin allergies all but disappeared. Subsequently, though, when I ordered they would be a different color, different consistency, different smell, etc. Originally, they were soft chews and, honestly, my cat would have eaten the whole bag if I would let her. When she started to scratch and try to cover them up I knew they were no longer "a good thing." Don't know what happened from the original chews until the last ones (last year sometime), but I believe they either changed the formulation or the manufacturer.

I'm sorry, I don't know the answer to that. My cat has been playing with these flashing balls since early December 2013, and they're still flashing. This is only the beginning of February 2014, so now I'm curious to see how long the flashing lasts. My cat plays with these every day, and sometimes I see these balls flashing on their own for minutes on end without the cat or anyone disturbing them into activation.

They roll around on the floor and can bounce when hit the right way (by the cat of course). My cat chased these springs around until he tried himself out or lost one.
