What is MeMouse?
MeMouse is a new type of entertainment for your pet. It operates on a regular or rechargable battery, runs and vibrates with handmade cover.
Story
Like with most cats, it was hard to keep our cat busy and interested in her toys for more than 10 minutes. Once I had bought this Vibrating Mouse Cat Toy on a string which you have to pull for the mouse to vibrate for a few seconds. My cat just loved it, but as I can’t spend all day pulling the string for my cats amusement, I had to come up with some other solution. Then I had the idea to create a whole new toy mouse with a built in sensor, vibrating motor and a replacable cover which my wife knitted. This solved the problem and my cat would entertain herself for hours. After some time one of my friends' saw it and wanted one for his cat. I made one for him and now most of my cat loving friends have one of these toys.
This is when we realised that we could offer this to other cat lovers around the world. The MeMouse Vibrating cat toy is a guaranteed entertainment for your cat to play with for hours on end. Everytime your cat touches or walks by the MeMouse, she will activate the sensor and the mouse will start to vibrate getting the cats' attention and the hunting games begin.
How it Works
When the “MeMouse” feels direct or nearby movement, it will randomly select 1 of 5 vibration patterns and “plays” it accordingly. The standard “Battery MeMouse” runs on a 3.0 volt CR2032 button cell battery, which is included in the package and simple to insert. One brand new battery will play for around 5000 vibrating patterns. A new battery can be purchased at most local and major stores.
A “Rechargeable MeMouse” works on on the same basis but with a rechargeable battery which is charged via any USB port. A blinking red LED light indicates that the MeMouse is being charged and a green LED light indicates that a full charge has been completed. (a mini USB can be ordered if you do not posses one)
Handmade cover
As we wanted our mouse to be more personal and with a higher quality than those you can get in a pet shop, each outside cover is handmade which makes it more attractive, durable and gives a higher resistance against the cats' attack. It makes the MeMouse more of a challenge to your cat.
