Hello Everyone! :) Odd question, but this looks like an awesome toy for my cats along with myself - anyone think an animal would like it? Thanks!

Sure. A cat might like it. That's a cute idea. My kids like it. :)

Anyone know what the metal is? I see some people suggest steel, but I think that is just a guess. Might anyone know?

I’m pretty sure it’s stainless steel. It’s not magnetic and has the right heft. I did use some scotchbrite to remove some small scratches and it behaved like I expect steel to.

How big is it? Box dimensions are given, but not of the rattle back itself.

Mine measures 3.758” long x 0.757” wide x 0.407” thick. I’m guessing they range within ~0.030” of those dimensions
