Meowbox Subscription Box Review – November 2015

 Meowbox is a monthly subscription box for cats filled with fun, unique toys, and natural, grain-free, organic, or locally-made treats.

My Subscription Addiction pays for this subscription. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes.)

The Subscription Box: Meowbox

The Cost: $32.95 a month (save with longer subscription plans)

The Products: 5-7 toys and treats per month for your cat.

Good to know: Meowbox will substitute non-food items for cats with special dietary requirements.  (There is a box to check during the signup process if you want to do this.)  And for every Meowbox you buy, they give one can of food to a shelter cat!

Ships to: US (free shipping), Canada, and the UK (not sure of shipping costs for those last two)

I love this – they wrote my cats’ names inside the lid!  (Also…I had some “help” taking the photos, as you can see…) 

Here’s a look at the items.

Included was an information card detailing the items in the box.  Seriously, Monkey wanted to be in every photo…

Vitakraft Purrk! Playfuls Stimulating Cat Toy (Perky Bird) – Value $4.79 

This has something in it called Feline Silvervine which is a plant that is supposed to be even more interesting to cats than catnip.  Monkey loved this thing so much, I had to take it away from him at night because he was making too much noise with it.

Vitakraft Purrk! Munchies KitBits Semi-Moist Treats – Value $4.29

I remember Vitakraft from the days when I had a lot of pet rodents.  I don’t think I even realized they made stuff for cats.  Sneaky and Madison loved these.

From the Field – Chewy the Hemp Rope – Value $1.79

This was absolutely the most popular item this month.  When playtime was over, this thing was wet from cat saliva and pretty much destroyed.

SPOT Ethical Products Skinneeez Mallard – Value $5.48

My cats didn’t show a ton of interest the first day, but someone discovered this later as it is pretty beaten up now. 

Bio-Pro Research Urine-Off (4 oz) – Value $2.52

Every now and then, someone “misses” the litter box.  So this will come in handy.

And now, some gratuitous cat photos: 

Another Monkey/Madison face-off, this time over the hemp rope. 

Madison loving the hemp rope (it is HARD to photograph black cats!). 

Monkey with his new love, the feline silvervine bird.

Mr. Kitty with some of the toys from the box.

And Sneaky biting the feline silvervine bird.  Because that’s what she does – bites things you hold in front of her.  I never get tired of it… 

Verdict: I calculated a value of about $19 for the November 2015 Meowbox.  That’s quite low for the cost of a subscription, although you can bring the price down with a coupon code and/or buying a longer term subscription, making it a better value.  It’s also a big drop-off from last month.  It helps, in my case, that I have multiple cats, so everything is usually a hit with at least one of them.  I’m hoping to see an increase in value next month, though.

What did you think of the November 2015 Meowbox?  Do you subscribe to any cat boxes?
