Introduction
Discover the VTech Glitter Me Kitty, a super cute and cuddly interactive toy designed to sparkle up your day. This meow-gical kitty responds to touch, changing its mood with color-changing stripes on its head. Stroke its head to make it move its paw and give a glitter stamp, or press its tummy to translate its meows into words. The Glitter Me Kitty can also indicate its needs, such as hunger, sleepiness, or itchiness, allowing children to learn about cause and effect and respond appropriately.
