"My kitty is enjoying these toys as much as possible given her arthritis issues. They have a nice bounce, roll easily, and are a nice size for chasing. They are made from a semi-soft rubber with lots of gaps, so if she were as spry as she once was, she would easily be able to carry the balls in her..."

"Cat wont even touch. Its rubber and bends but its so thick the cats cant chew on it. These were made of dogs but's too small foil made cat toy. My impression at least."

Bottom Line

A good choice for interactive play, but be prepared for varying levels of cat interest and some durability issues. Works well for fetch and chasing games.
