Cons

  • Not Always a Kicker Toy (2) minor

    The toy may not work as intended for all cats, as the toy isn't sturdy enough to to be a kicker toy for an adult cat. While it is a good size and well made, it is not sturdy enough to be a kicker for an adult cat. They only way my cats will play with it is when I dangle the legs over them, but once I drop it, they ate done with it. It’s just not as interesting to an adult cat because they can’t really kick it like a proper kicker toy.
