Pokémon cat toys bring anime magic to your feline friend—see Litten, Meowth, and Sprigatito on scratchers and bowls for the perfect fusion of play and cuteness.
Unleashing Pokémon Fun for Cats and Their Humans
There’s something uniquely delightful about seeing the worlds of Pokémon and pet cats collide. When the fantasy of anime meets the everyday quirks of our real-life furballs, the result is pure, unfiltered joy—at least, that’s what I felt the first time I saw Necoichi’s Pokémon pet product line.
You know that feeling when you spot a product and think, “How have I lived without this?” That’s exactly the vibe here. Necoichi, a Japanese company whose name even nods to “neko” (cat), has teamed up with the Pokémon franchise to create a set of cat-centric toys and accessories. For anyone who has ever daydreamed about sharing their home with a Литтен, a Meowth, or a Sprigatito, these are as close as you can get—without falling through a wormhole into the Pokémon universe.
Pokémon for Pets: Where Fantasy Meets Real-World Feline Fun
Pokémon, short for “Pocket Monster,” has always offered up creatures that range from the intimidating to the downright adorable. And let’s be honest—some of the most beloved Pokémon could easily pass for pets if only they’d step out of the TV and into our living rooms. While that day may never arrive, Necoichi’s collection is the next best thing for cat owners.
From the moment these products hit the shelves, I knew I wasn’t alone in wanting a little Pokémon magic in my daily routine. The lineup features the trio of cat-inspired Pokémon—Meowth, Литтен, and Sprigatito—splashed across scratchers, tunnels, and more.
The Baribari Bowl: A Pokémon Scratcher with Feline Magnetism
Let’s talk about the showstopper first: the Baribari Bowl. This isn’t your ordinary scratch pad. Priced at around $24, it’s a bowl-shaped cardboard scratcher with artwork featuring our feline Pokémon favorites.
The sloped interior is designed to invite your cat in for both scratching and lounging. In all honesty, I wasn’t sure if my own cat would take to it, but once she curled up inside, there was no coaxing her out. Necoichi even warns that your cat may become so enamored with the bowl that reclaiming it could turn into a gentle tug-of-war.
This was the first hint that these products were more than just cute novelties—they’re genuinely appealing to cats, not just their humans.
Cat Tunnel Adventures: Pokémon Style
If your cat is more of an explorer, the Pokémon Cat Tunnel (about $17) is another winner. The tunnel is decorated with the same trio of Pokémon, and it’s designed for crawling, spying, and—let’s be honest—lounging in the middle, blocking all household traffic.
There’s even a strategic peek-hole halfway through the tunnel, perfect for a quick reconnaissance mission or a dramatic surprise attack on unsuspecting housemates.
As much as I was hoping for a burst of zoomies, my cat instead decided the tunnel was prime real estate for a mid-morning nap—which, on reflection, was very on-brand for both cats and Pokémon.
The Cat Play Cube: Hide, Seek, and Play All Day
Some cats want options—a place to hide, a place to pounce, and a place to peer out at the world. Enter the Pokémon Cat Play Cube, coming in at about $13.
This cube is lightweight, portable, and just the right size for a quick game of hide-and-seek. At first glance, I worried it might be too flimsy for my energetic tabby, but it held up well to some spirited play. It’s simple but effective—a recurring theme with Necoichi’s designs.
Pokémon Food and Water Bowls: For Mealtime Magic
What’s a day of play without a themed mealtime? Necoichi extends their Pokémon collaboration to food and water bowls, ranging from about $15 to $20.
The water bowls feature handy measurement lines on the inside—useful for anyone keeping a close eye on their pet’s hydration. Meanwhile, the food bowls come in two styles: a regular, flat-bottomed design, and a diagonal “Nyayame” model. The latter’s name is a clever blend of “naname” (diagonal) and “nya” (the Japanese meow). The result? A dish that’s easier for cats to access, and a wordplay that would make any pun-loving Pokémon fan smile.
Whimsical Details and a Quirky Omission
Dig a little deeper, and you’ll notice a curious detail. While the play accessories (scratcher, tunnel, cube) showcase Meowth, Litten, and Sprigatito together, the food and water bowls only feature Litten or Sprigatito. Meowth is conspicuously absent. It’s hard not to speculate—was it a design decision, a licensing issue, or maybe, as some fans suggest, because Meowth is the most “human” of the Pokémon cats and wouldn’t be caught dead eating off the floor?
I did wish for a complete trio on every item, but the playful approach and variety almost made up for it.
Japan’s Love Affair with Cat Puns and Design
Japan’s passion for cats is legendary, and puns are practically a national pastime. The “Nyayame” bowl is a testament to both traditions—practical, adorable, and irresistibly punny.
The overall aesthetic of the product line is clean, charming, and refreshingly not over-the-top. Sometimes, themed merchandise can feel forced or gaudy, but here, the balance is just right—even with the puns.
Final Thoughts: Expectations vs. Reality
Going in, I half-expected these Pokémon cat toys to be more about the gimmick than the substance. But having seen the reactions—both mine and my cat’s—I’m happy to revise that first impression. The pieces are thoughtfully designed, practical, and genuinely enjoyed by feline testers. That said, the absence of Meowth on all the bowls nags at me more than I’d like to admit. Still, if you’re hunting for a way to bring a touch of Pokémon to your cat’s daily life, this collection is a delightful crossover that lands right in the sweet spot.
