Bergan Turbo Scratcher Cat Toy

This has been our favorite cat toy purchase! She doesn’t need us to play with it ans it keeps her entertained. We’ve had it for about six months and she still comes back to it daily

So, this is a fun toy for the cats. But I have to say that this version is an inferior product compared to the original Turbo Scratcher, which we still have, and which is what I thought I was buying. I have the original from my previous cat, it was his favorite toy. Now we have two cats and they both love the TS, so I wanted to get a second one because they sometimes get into fights over who gets to play. I got the new one, and it's all-around inferior to the original. It's much thinner and lighter, and came warped so it doesn't sit flat on the ground; it also doesn't seem uniform in shape so the ball doesn't really roll smoothly. That might also be because the ball isn't perfectly round So, this is a fun toy for the cats.

That might also be because the ball isn't perfectly round, it's two pieces that weren't put together evenly, and had a nib, so it wobbles more than it rolls. I took a sanding block to it and that made it a little better but still not great. I was expecting the same Turbo Scratcher I have and would give that 5 stars. This is just disappointing. The cats probably won't know the difference because they're cats and they sniff each other's butts for fun, but as a consumer I feel this is a sad, cheapened version of what was a great product. It should be called something other than Turbo Scratcher because I have one of those and this ain't it. … more

My crew of 4 love this toy! Still playing with it and it’s going strong!!! Great quality!!

The little rubber stoppers in the bottom are useless as they constantly come out, and the toy itself does not stay in place when my cat scratches on it. This sucks because my cat seems to really like it, but she can't scratch too hard on it or else the toy slides around. And this is with the toy sitting on carpet. The cat nip it comes with is really popular with her, but I just don't know how to keep the toy in place. I even bought separate rubber pads and that just doesn't work. It's almost like I need to drill it into the ground.

Both my adult cat and new kitten like to play with this scratcher. I sprinkle a little catnip on the scratcher and they will hang out playing with it for long periods of time. I like the scratcher, ball combination.

Kitten loves it, I love it, I was excited awaiting this item because I knew she could amuse herself when I can’t always play. You can still interact with this toy. She scratches the cardboard too, without adding the catnip she was instantly interested in this.

The product is great. The only issue I have is that it arrived to the building next door, and by chance, when I went to throw the trash, I saw it there and checked that it's mine. The two buildings are similar, and I know someone in that building also orders from Chewy, so I understand the mistake, but still, I would appreciate it if the delivery service double-checked to make sure it arrives to the correct doorstep next time.

It's always a guessing game when buying cat toys for my fickle furry overlord. The Turbo Scratcher remains consistently in the 100% success camp 1.5 months since I got it. I love how it's designed, with the shape of the inner track helping the ball keep going even with gentle taps. If your cats like cardboard as a scratching texture they'll also love the center ring, and you can continue ordering replacements once the cardboard's worn out, helping this stick around long-term. Mine prefers sisal and carpet so his main interest is the rolling ball and the sound it makes. You can sprinkle catnip over the cardboard or use catnip spray if you like.

It comes with little rubber stoppers for the underside to prevent it from moving around during play. I found one on the floor two weeks ago while the rest have stayed in place. If you're concerned about it and have pets or kids who eat stuff they shouldn't you can glue them down when you put them in, most likely, or just opt to not use them. One last note - this is not a silent toy so if you're a light sleeper or the noise would disturb you just put it away overnight or in another room if your cats get the zoomies at 4am, too. Other than that I have no complaints. There are very few cat toys I'd recommend to everyone given the varied ways cats like to play, but this deserves recognition as a solid choice for just about all cats. Get it for yours or as a gift for someone with a cat in their life. … more

This thing is incredible. It must whisper in cat, "Please scratch me. Stretch out your claws. I am waiting..." I have two cats and they love it. It sounds like they are tearing something apart, but it is only the cardboard. And, they quit scratching everything else! Whoever invented this deserves an award.

Nice toy, like the scratch insert and the cats do too, but it only took two days for one of the cats to pop the ball out of the track and now it's no where to be found. None of the other balls I have around the house fit into the track so now there's no toy feature. Luckily, they still like the scratching insert so that's good. Wish I could get replacement balls at a reasonable price.
