Quick Verdict

Appropriate for kittens or small cats. Quickly loses engagement for larger cats. Lasts only a few months with moderate use before destruction.

"This is great entertainment for the kitties and for us watching the kitties play. It lasted four months with 4 cats before it was completely destroyed. I added catnip every few weeks and it was used everyday."

"I thought this was cute, but It’s way too small. It’s more appropriate for a kitten. The holes are too small, and it’s too much work for them. They just lose interest. It would be better if it was a lot larger."

Bottom Line

Great entertainment for kittens but not suitable for full grown cats. Not durable, which isn't good for the owners.
