Highlighted Reviews

— Donika

"This is one of my cat's favorites. He likes chewing sticks, but this is more for him to play with. I like that it's small, neutral colors, and only makes a light rattling sound."

— Kelly

"Unfortunately I wish I read more the description more carefully. The last thing it mentions is that it is only one toy from the three, randomly selected. Unfortunately with the picture and pricing, I thought it was a set. My two cats had to share the one when it arrived and it was a bit sad! I gues..."

Bottom Line

Potential safety concerns and low satisfaction with the value of the product make this a questionable purchase unless specifically suited to a cat's preferences.
