Highlighted Reviews

— Abigail

"My cat loves this toy! My only change would be that the plastic packaging does not allow for easy removal of the plastic ties."

— Samantha

"They don't slide against the tiled floor well, nor does it bounce well because of the flat one side and the both sides being hard. Since there's no crinkle either, they don't have much interest in it and have never played with it"

Bottom Line

Overall, this toy might not be a hit with every cat, which could be a disappointment given the ineffectiveness of the toy‘s design.
