My cat is very sound oriented; does this mouse make any noise? Does it rattle or crinkle?

It's evidently not a sound audible to most humans. I can hear it. There's a very slight dry-rubbing sound caused by friction when it moves against different surfaces. I must have really good ears :P

It makes enough sound for a cat to hear. Our cat is blind and this is by far his favorite toy.

no, it doesn't make any sound, it goes on the end of a wand and my cats love it.

The mouse doesn't. If you get the one with the feathers in it and get it going with good speed, it sounds like birds wings and it gets my cats attention immediately. My cat seriously goes crazy for these toys.

No sound at all. But I've yet to hear about a cat that isn't mesmerized by this toy.

It doesn't make any noise by itself. HOWEVER, if you kind of jiggle it quickly it ends up looking and *sounding* like a medium to large insect having trouble flying, as if it's wings are flailing around and hitting things. That got my cats (all three of them--5 month kitten, 3 years old, and 7 years old) going crazy. They loved it even before I did that though.

This mouse makes a clicking sound when you press the button. I've never actually worked with a mouse that was completely quiet when I browsed with it.

Hi Jamie,No, these mice don't actually rattle, and they no longer come catnip-filled, but you know what...we rescued three cats after our 18 year-old cat died, and we bought $125= dollars worth of little cat toys for them - a wide variety of crinkles, rattles, catnip toys, etc. - and hands down, these mice are the one thing EVERYONE fights for. I've now come back and purchased three packets of these mice, and I still have to fish them out from under and behind every piece of furniture we own. For whatever reason, these mice are irresistible to all three of these cats. Go figure, right? But no, no rattles with these. Hope this helps!Merry Christmas,Michelle Hi Jamie,No, these mice don't actually rattle, and they no longer come catnip-filled, but you know what...we rescued three cats after our 18 year-old cat died, and we bought $125= dollars worth of little cat toys for them - a wide variety of crinkles, rattles, catnip toys, etc. - and hands down, these mice are the one thing EVERYONE fights for.

Hello Frank,No, no purring sounds as it is not battery operated. But I have large smiles and giggles from the person who plays with this friend very often. Hope this helps.

My cat acts the same way. To the best of my knowledge there is no catnip in the mouse. :)

Well all mice click. This one is actually pretty quiet. It shouldn't be annoying but it all depends on the people.

It doesn't make a sound. I thought I had finally found a toy my cats would enjoy -- but no such luck. It seems to be a good toy but my guys are just not into playing.

It's not as quiet as cotton (which is pretty darn quiet), but it's very far from noisy; and does not at all sound like plasticky or crinkly stuff. To the extent it makes noise when you shift (which isn't much), it's like a soft whisper like leaves in a breeze. I can sometimes here my cats' footsteps as they walk across it.I use mine as the top bed covering rather than having a comforter or duvet inside it. Very happy with it - it's breathable so I don't get too hot.

Not quite a mouse, but pretty quiet. I have an older cat that can be violent when it comes to grooming and he actually got used to it pretty quickly even rubbing his face on it (I do 5-10 minute sessions). I ordered a $60 one at the same time as this one and this one is a good amount quieter than it and my cat still prefers it over the spendier one.

It's not loud, but it's not quiet. When the cats walk across it, you can hear each step. So there is some crinkly sounds. Oddly enough, the material is rather soft.

No, it should never rattle! I think it depends as to whether you can hear a SMALL background whine or not. Mine is fine on the low speed, but has a very high-pitched background whine on the high speed. My husband can't hear it, but I can't stand it! Is yours still under warranty? Sounds like they should exchange it.

To: Doctor "K", I will look right now, so hold on. My cats are all so nutty, it is hard to tell if they are having that special "feeling" from one of their catnip toys. I ordered these because they have the rattles in them and when I throw them, I shake them first and they love that noise. Then it is like a herd of buffalo running for them. My veterinarian came to my home and told me that hands down, she has never ever seen so many cat toys. LOL From what I can see on the box and also read on the individual tag attached to each little mouse, there is no catnip in/on them.

What up Nestor. Cool name btw. The mouse has a noise as all mice do, however; it is barely noticeable and relatively quiet in my opinion.

I'm not really sure what you are talking about. The mouse itself is quiet when you drag it across a surface. The left and right click buttons make a standard click sounds when pressed and depressed. The center wheel also clicks when pressed and depressed. The small center button clicks as well, but it is quieter than the other buttons. In general, this mouse is no more loud or quiet than any other mouse I have used in the past. If you are in a quiet room, you will hear the mouse buttons being used.

I have the silver version and when I bought it back in 2011... I don't know if it was made the same now as then, but I have 2 cats one 15lbs and one 13lbs and they sleep on the top together and no problems. It does shake and make noise but they love it and the door is open. I put a flannel fitted sheet with some padding on top and it give them privacy and they love sitting on the top of it as well.

It does have a clicking sound when you scroll which sounds kind of like a zipper being zipped. If you are in a quiet room, that sound can really grate on your nerves! I wouldn't buy this mouse again because of the clicking sound.

No, it's not... It no louder than most mice, giving off a light crisp "click" with the click of a button, but I would not say it's quiet. Sounds like this is a very important feature to you, therefore I would NOT recommend this particular item.
