KONG Connects Punching Bag mounts to a smooth surface on a locking suction base and stands a spring-loaded bag in front of the cat, so every swipe knocks it over and it springs straight back up. Two gloves hang off it on elastic, each with a bell inside, and the bag itself crinkles when struck. Cats that like to rear up and box get a target that answers back with nobody holding it. One option, about 32 cm tall on a base roughly 14 cm across.
- Spring-loaded bag returns upright after each hit instead of falling flat
- Locking suction base — press down and flip the lever until it clicks
- A bell inside each dangling glove, plus a crinkle bag, so contact makes noise
- Carries KONG North American catnip in the gloves; response to catnip varies from cat to cat
- Needs a smooth, clean, non-porous surface — glass, tile or a sealed benchtop, not carpet or raw timber
Size and materials
About 32 cm tall on a base roughly 14 cm across, 160 g. Built from polyester, polyurethane and PVC over a steel spring, with corn starch beads, elastic and catnip inside. Wipe both the suction cup and the mounting surface before attaching, spot clean the bag and gloves rather than machine washing, and retire the toy if the spring or a glove seam goes.
