1. A stuffed cat for all the millions of times your child has begged you for an actual kitten. You can "feed" the animal and it will also make purring sounds while you pet it.
Promising review: " My 4-year-old son loves this little kitten! He takes it everywhere with him, lol. He loves to brush it and feed it the bottle until it falls asleep. It's about the size of my hand, which makes it perfect for little hands.
