I've loved kitty play in various ways for years. I grew up a cat person, with cats as my friends and companions. If you've followed this blog for any length of time you'll know about Foucault, our adopted cat with extra toes, who we spoil rotten. He's got everything you want in a cat- playful, affectionate, curious, friendly, a little off, kind of dangerous. Oh, right, and ginger, which I have a soft spot for. He's kind of the evil cousin to a cat I adore who scarred me for life, Teddy, out in the UK.
So when I got a chance to review something from body-positive toy boutique SheVibe, I couldn't resist this adorable set of hot pink cheetah BDSM accessories. They're super cute, they match, and they're surprisingly practical. Oh, yeah, and they're vegan! The material is a soft vinyl, which feels comfortable against the skin (if perhaps a bit sweaty).
With this kit you get multiple things- a set of two cuffs, a plastic mask that ties on with ribbon, a breathable ball gag, a collar with a removable nylon leash attached, and a small but stingy flogger. Probably an ideal collection for someone just experimenting with kink, as the cuffs and collar are all velcroed together, so easy to put on and remove and pretty secure. The ballgag does buckle rather than velcro!
The collar part itself is about 17" long, though can adjust up (it may not be as sturdy at that point because less of the velcro will be in use) and down (you can always cut off excess nylon). There's a metal O-ring in front with a 21" nylon leash (not including the handle).
The cuffs are about 9 1/2" when closed all the way and are adjustable a couple of inches in either direction. There's a chain between them that's permanently attached on one side, and clips onto the other, allowing you to put them around a bedframe (if you're into that sort of thing) or just restrict your kitten's movement as they crawl and play with catnip toys.
I was pleasantly surprised by the ballgag, which has a metal buckle and 10" of length on one side. The other side is about 15", so there's a lot of leeway for as tight or as loose as you need. The ball itself is about 1 1/2" I believe, so on the smaller side. It also has holes in it, making it easier to breathe while it's in. It's pretty comfortable to wear and can be worn at the same time as the cat mark if you feel so inclined.
The mask is a hard plastic and ties on with ribbon. Honestly, while it's cute, I doubt I'd get much use out of it except for maybe at a costume party. It's fairly big and would make it difficult to kiss the wearer- so, while good for dehumanizing someone, perhaps less practical for many kinky play sessions.
Finally there's a small flogger. It's got a 5" handle and 9" laces coming off it that are made of the same material vinyl as the collar, cuffs, and gag. It's pretty stingy when used with force, though it can also offer a sensation that's pleasantly painful without being too harsh if used a bit more lightly. It's cute, and not badly made for a beginner toy- I don't get the impression it's about to fall apart and, being vinyl, you can likely sterilize it with a bleach and water solution if you feel so inclined.
All in all the Kinky Kitty Kit wouldn't be a bad toy set for me to bring to a play party where I want cuffs but don't necessarily want to bring my pricey leather ones. I think it would hold up to light bondage rather than a more intense scene. It's certainly very cute and could be fun as an access point to petplay if a couple was interested in exploring!
Thank you SheVibe for sending me the Kinky Kitty Kit in exchange for a fair review! Check SheVibe out for a myriad of other toys, both kinky and not!
