Three Replacement Balls for the Catch the Balls Track
Product Description
The Trixie Cat Catch The Balls Refills are official replacement balls made to fit directly inside the Catch The Balls Circle Track. Each pack includes three balls measuring 1.6 inches in diameter. They are the same lightweight plastic balls that come with the track, and they roll with low friction to keep cats batting and chasing. Pick these up when the originals go missing or wear out so the track stays in full use.
Features
- 3 replacement balls per pack
- Lightweight plastic construction
- Low-friction rolling action
- Fits Catch The Balls Circle Track
- Also fits 3-tiered track
Benefits
- Extends Track Lifespan: Replacing worn or missing balls keeps the Catch The Balls track fully functional, so you do not need to buy a whole new track when a ball goes missing.
- Same Low Friction Roll: These are the same lightweight balls that come with the track and roll with minimal friction, giving cats the same fast, satisfying chase action as the originals.
- Works Across Tracks: The 1.6 inch balls fit the circle track as well as the 3-tiered Catch The Balls track, so one pack of refills works if you own both versions.
- Add More Balls: You can slot additional balls into the track alongside the originals to increase activity during play, giving cats more targets to bat at during a single session.
- Cost-Effective Replacement: At a low per-ball cost compared to buying a full new toy, these refills are a practical way to keep the track going without unnecessary spending on a replacement unit.
Material Used
Plastic.
How to Use
Usage Instructions
- Check compatibility first: These balls are made for the Catch The Balls Circle Track; confirm your track model before ordering.
- Insert through openings: Push each ball through one of the paw-sized openings around the rim of the track until it seats inside the channel and can roll freely around the full loop.
- Mix with originals: You can add these refill balls to the track alongside any remaining original balls to increase the number of moving targets.
- Set one rolling: Give one ball a tap to send it around the loop and let your cat take it from there; the low-friction design keeps them moving with minimal effort for continued play.
Additional Information
Care Instructions
- Maintain cleaning: Use a damp cloth to wipe the balls after each play session to remove fur, saliva, and dust that accumulates on the plastic surface.
- Wash with soap: Wash the balls with mild soap and warm water when they get visibly dirty, rinse well, and let them dry completely before returning them to the track.
- Inspect for damage: Look the balls over before each session for cracks, chips, or bite marks; replace any that are cracked or broken to avoid sharp edges near your cat's paws.
Safety Instructions
- Check size before use: These balls measure 1.6 inches and are not intended for chewing or unsupervised solo use outside the track.
- Keep away from small children: The 1.6 inch balls are a choking hazard for young children; always store them out of reach and only use them in a space your cat plays in without children present.
- Remove cracked balls: Any ball that cracks, chips, or develops sharp edges should be removed immediately and replaced to prevent injury to your cat's paws or mouth during play.
- Do not force into track: If a ball feels too tight going into the track opening, check that it is the correct replacement item; forcing an oversized ball can crack both the ball and the track rim.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Which tracks do these replacement balls fit?
Ans: These 1.6 inch balls are made for the Catch The Balls Circle Track and the 3-tiered Catch The Balls track from Trixie. Check your track's item number before ordering to confirm these are the right fit.
Q2: Are these the same balls that come with the track?
Ans: Yes. These are the official replacement balls from Trixie and are the same lightweight plastic balls included with the Catch The Balls track. They roll with the same low friction inside the channel, so your cat gets the same play experience as they did with the original balls.
Q3: Can I add extra balls to the track at the same time?
Ans: Yes. You can put additional balls into the track alongside the ones already there. Adding more balls means more simultaneous movement inside the channel, which usually gets cats more active during a session. Just push the extra balls in through the paw-sized openings along the rim.
Q4: What size are these balls?
Ans: Each ball is 1.6 inches in diameter. That is the same size as the balls that come with the Catch The Balls track. Because of this size, keep them inside the track during use and away from small children, as the 1.6 inch diameter falls within the choking hazard range for young kids.
Q5: Why do the original balls need replacing?
Ans: Balls tend to go missing by rolling under furniture during play, and over time some get cracked or chipped from regular use. Having a spare pack means the track stays usable without any downtime.
Q6: How do I put the balls back into the track?
Ans: Push each ball through one of the paw-sized openings around the rim of the track. Once inside the channel, the ball should roll freely around the full loop. Give it a tap to confirm it moves smoothly, then let your cat start playing. No tools or disassembly are needed.
Q7: Are these balls safe for cats?
Ans: They are made from the same plastic Trixie uses in the original track balls and are safe for cats to bat around inside the track. They are not designed for chewing or unsupervised play outside the track. Inspect them before each session and remove any that have cracked or developed sharp edges.
