"June absolutely loves to this interactive cat toy! The three soft pieces are well made and seams hold up well. The middle one crinkles which makes it extra intising. Vibrant cute Saint Patrick's Day colors are festive. Obviously you need to be interactive with your cat for this top. Please don't lea..."

— VJ from CA

"None of my 4 cats found this toy very entertaining. I had to really work to get them even to look at it and even harder to get them to interact with it at all. I even squished the sections trying to move the catnip it's supposed to have in it, so that it might smell more and get them interested. ..."

Bottom Line

If your cat enjoys wand toys and is younger, this could be a fun addition. However, be aware that the toy may not appeal to all cats, especially older ones.
