Picky! I grow my own catnip and one year made nearly 200 for a fund
raiser for the local no kill shelter. He bought one for his mothers
cat, she maintained it was a waste of time, however when the mouse was
produced, this one he liked. So it's his yearly treat.

I invented my own knitting pattern for the mouse, a good knitter can
produce one in an hour or so and they look good.
