Highlighted Reviews

— Sherry

"Bootsie loves to throw this mouse in the air and catch it. With the feathers it looks like a bird. The squeeking noise is cute, not too annoying. I ordered a 2nd as she's lost the last one. Only negative is the feathers do fall off."

— Carly

"We got this toy, pulled the tab out and it squeaked a few times and died before my cat even got to play with it. Previously bought her a squeaking skunk which she loved but this toy does not interest her without the squeaking and it's also way too big."

Bottom Line

If your cat loves interactive toys and you're okay with frequent replacements, this toy is a good choice. However, be prepared for potential durability issues.
