Reusable Cat Tea Infuser Silicone Loose Leaf Strainer

A cat built to hold your tea leaves

Leaves stay inside

The perforated belly catches loose leaves while the water runs through. Fill it about halfway so the leaves have room to open up, and the brew comes out strong without a single leaf floating in your cup.

Paws that hook on

The dangling paws rest over the rim and keep the cat upright, so the belly hangs in the tea instead of slipping in. It fits standard mugs and cups. Very tall travel mugs are the one case where the paws will not reach.

Reusable silicone

Soft matte silicone rinses clean in seconds and replaces the paper bags that pile up in the bin. One infuser does the job of a whole stack of bags, and it is easy to give as a gift in the box it comes in.

Hang it, pour it, lift it out

1. 1
   Fill the belly halfway

   Spoon loose leaves into the mesh belly. Halfway leaves room for the leaves to open up while they steep.

2. 2
   Hook the paws on your mug

   Drape the paws over the rim so the belly hangs inside the cup. Pour hot water over the leaves.

3. 3
   Steep, lift, and rinse

   Steep for your usual time, lift the cat out, and rinse it under the tap. It is ready for the next cup.

From soggy mouthful to a cleaner cup

The soggy-leaf mouthful

Every cup of loose tea starts the same way. You spoon in the leaves, pour the water, and a few minutes later you are picking bits of wet leaf off your tongue. The bin fills up with paper tea bags in the meantime, and the mug still looks like a mess.

A cat that holds the leaves

Hang the charcoal cat over the rim and the mesh belly sits in the tea while the paws grip the edge. The leaves stay inside, the water moves through, and the cup stays clear. It is the simplest fix we have seen for a daily problem, and it looks good on the counter while it works.

Cleaner cups, happier mornings

Lift it out, rinse it under the tap, and it is ready for the next pot. Mornings get a little quieter and a little more playful, and the leftover leaves go in the compost instead of the bin.

Rinse it, hang it, done

• Rinse after each cup

  Run it under the tap while still warm so leaves wash out easily.

• Top rack only

  Dishwasher safe on the top rack if you want a deeper clean.

• Lift it out when steeped

  Leaving it in the cup for hours can leave stains and a stale smell.
