"The item with the spokes is not glued very well. After taking the toy out and the cats played with it for 2 minutes, it broke. The ball with the bell is one of the cats favorite toy. I wish the other one didn’t break."
Bottom Line
Considering more durable alternatives for cats. This toy can be converted into a single-item purchase to avoid disappointment. The one-minute durability seems very low and negative feedback for the recommended reason.
