KitNipBox

KitNipBox has delivered curated cat happiness since 2014 when founders Deena Bronz and Jordan Salvit launched the New York-based service to bring the excitement of subscription boxes to feline households. In August 2021, Caitec Inc. (a portfolio company of Fairchild Capital Partners) acquired KitNipBox, adding production resources while maintaining the brand’s cat-first focus.

Company Mission

KitNipBox’s mission is to make cats happy and support animal welfare. The company curates toys filled with premium North American catnip (higher potency than imported varieties), all-natural treats, and themed accessories. A portion of proceeds from every box supports over 100 animal welfare organizations.

Products & Services

KitNipBox offers three subscription tiers:

• Happy Cat: $25.99/month for up to 5 items (single-cat households)
• Multi-Cat: $33.99/month for up to 7 items (multiple cats)
• Purr-emium: $59.99/month for 8+ items including electronic toys

All boxes include Grade A North American catnip toys, all-natural treats (or treat-free option for allergies), and monthly themed accessories. Gift subscriptions available in 1, 3, 6, or 12-month options.

What Sets Them Apart

KitNipBox differentiates through quality catnip and affordability. All toys contain Grade A North American catnip, which is more potent than imported varieties. At $25.99-33.99/month with free US shipping, KitNipBox is among the most affordable cat subscription boxes, approximately $6 cheaper than competitors like Meowbox.

The service has earned CUBE Awards for Best Pet Subscription Box (2017, 2018, 2020) from the Subscription Trade Association and CNN’s Best Pet Subscription Box designation (2021). The A+ BBB rating reflects strong business practices. The charitable component, supporting 100+ animal welfare organizations, appeals to socially conscious cat parents.
