Feather Teaser Cat Toy, Retractable Cat Feather Toy Wand with 5 Assorted Teaser with Bell Refills, Interactive Catcher Teaser for Kitten Or Cat Having Fun Exerciser Playing

This is just my initial thoughts but so far I am very impressed. At a cost point so low, you almost expect to get lower quality... this is not the case. Each “Toy” attaches to a well attached piece of nylon line and the line is attached to the pole. I thought the extendable pole was a gimmic and I had fully intended to attach the toys to another wand I have but, I was wrong again. The pole seems very solid and not flimsy at all. The “Toys” themselves are very well made and very well put together. These are higher quality than your local Mart and so far my cat has freaked out over the “Worm” attachment. We have logged 2-3 hours of play the first day and she is captivated by the movement. It’s very important to play with your pets and this makes it fun for both of us. I consciously try to mimic bug and bird and critter movements like stopping to “nibble” or “slinking” around corners and this drives my kitten crazy. I put her toys away when we aren’t using them to keep her from eating the feathers. I’ll update in a few months and let ya know how it’s holding up. So far... So good.It’s only been a few weeks but I had to come back and report that this toy is insatiable to my cat. There are days she cries when play time is over, but hey, I gotta go to work! We run all over the house with this and she jumps, slides, hops and flips in all kinds of hilarious ways. I am definitely as amused as she and I laugh out loud quite a lot while we play. 4-5 times a week I consciously work her out for an hour or so and this toy is all I need. We do stairs, sprints, climbing and lots of cardio. What I usually do is put on some fun music, grab the toy and play non stop until she is tired. I can tell she is tired because she stops looking at the toy even when I dangle it around her. Again this usually takes around an hour so be prepared. This playtime has strengthened the bond between myself and “Miss Winnie Lee” and the time we spend loving on each other has increased because of our awesome play time. I’ll update after a few more months of super fun play time. Remember 8 to 10 hours of play a week helps you and your cat. Turn the tv off, put on some fun music and run with your kitty. It’s more fun than you think.It’s been a couple of months and this is still our go to toy. There are very few perfect things in the world and this is one of them. Since it’s now the holiday season, I have attached Rudolph using the clip on the end of the line and the plastic hook attached to the toy for retail display. OMG they can both fly!!!! I pulled the pole in where it is only extended two lengths to make it stronger and it NEVER came loose and slid open. This toy is such a high quality, fun factory that you should buy a couple and give them away to other kitties. The worm attachment is so insatiable to my cat that she plays until she is open mouth panting. Your cat’s good health depends on you. Play with them frequently to keep their systems in line.

Had to house sit my sisters cats (two, with very different personalities) for a month and she was woefully lacking in cat toys, so I read some lists and did some shopping and got the best variety I could. While nearly every toy was a 'success', this one was by far the biggest hit with both cats.The different attachments might seem more or less the same at a glance, but seemed to make all the difference in the world to the cats. They each had their favorites and ones they couldn't care less about. Picked up a second toy for my parents (3 cats) and the same proved true there as well. Each cat has one particular attachment she just can't resist, 1-2 she might play with a little bit, and then 1-2 she practically doesn't even seem to see (usually different from the other cats).I cannot recommend this toy enough, and if you're genuinely unsure of what your cat might like, and need a cheap jumping off point, I strongly suggest starting here.If I had to give a downside... I would say that the cats love it so much that 'eventually' the feathered attachments do get worn down after too much clawing and munching on. But it's in no way a quick break or anything. By the time the first one wore out I'd had my moneys worth several times over, and ordered a second one immediately.(Biggest favorites for the cats tended to be they either were obsessed with the brown feathered one OR the orange fish eyed one. The only one I've gotten little use out of personally is the racoon tail style one, but I'm sure there are cats out there who love it.)

This is a great, sturdy feather toy. My cat has never been big on toys and is very picky. He goes absolutely crazy for this toy! He will jump up to 4 feet in the air to try to get the feather. However, he actively tries to destroy the feather attachments by trying to get the bell off of the loop. He has been able to do this once since I’ve had the toy (about a week). Now it is his main goal with the toy, and I have to watch him closely because he just chews on the metal fishing float connector. He has gotten his a tooth wedged in a couple of times while his claw is stuck on another loop in the apparatus, to the point that I’ve had to get him unstuck before he starts freaking out and really hurting himself. Could be really bad if he was home alone and this happened. The float connecter is also able to be opened and closed (like a safety pin). Not sure if he would be able to do that with his teeth, but it is a concern that he would get stabbed in the mouth if so. I am also worried he could chip a tooth on the metal, swallow the bell if he got it off, etc etc... I have included a picture so you can see how the whole thing works. Please watch your cats closely and observe how they play with the toy before leaving them alone with it!! This toy should be redesigned to have fewer places a cat could get stuck on. I plan on putting some electrical tape over the dangerous parts.
