This toy has been a complete hit at our house. Found that if I hung it in the center of the doorway, the bounce from the string would launch the mouse up and over the backside of the open door.

Found that if I hung it in the center of the doorway, the bounce from the string would launch the mouse up and over the backside of the open door. The cats ended up locking themselves in the room because they would have to go behind the door to get the mouse. Now I've propped the door open so it won't shut and moved the hanger away from the hinged side. Problem solved. Once in a while the mouse bounces up and gets caught up in the hanger and, only once, has the safety breakaway been pulled apart but it snapped right back on. All-in-all, it's a definite favorite! … more

The concept for this toy would have been great but unfortunately, it didn't fit on my doorway (kept falling off) and, even if it did, it would have been too tall for my cat to have reached (she's pretty small). I probably should have done a little more looking into what toy would best work for our doors The concept for this toy would have been great but unfortunately, it didn't fit on my doorway (kept falling off) and, even if it did, it would have been too tall for my cat to have reached (she's pretty small). I probably should have done a little more looking into what toy would best work for our doors but oh well. My cat does like the catnip mouse so I ended up just cutting it off the string and letting her bat it around the house. It's a good idea for a toy and probably works great for many homes, just not ours. Check your doorways before you buy! … more

Both of my cats absolutely loved this toy. Hanging it from the doorway was a hit, they would play with it for hours! Unfortunately, it didn't last long. The rubber tips came off right away, and after a few days, the 'clamp' was no longer strong enough to withstand play while hanging from the doorframe. They should make the clamp more square shaped so it can hang from a doorframe more naturally. Also replace the rubber tips with something else. If done right, this could be a long-lasting hit for many cats.

my 5 mo old kitten loved this. . .until he pulled it off (rather easily as our house has a wider area than the hanger section is made for). he now plays with the mouse though. i'd suggest they make a sturdier, wider hanger, i know i'd gladly pay a few $ more for something less flimsy.

toy was great...for about 2 hours. the mouse on the end broke off the string after only a few runs with my kitty. She still plays with the mouse (although it's a bit torn up), but the point of being able to self-play was sadly disappointing. :(

This is one of my cat's favorite toys. However, the first one broke a few days in, the rope snapped. The second one, within the first 5 minutes, the tail of the mouse broke off and was laying on the floor (I received the second one yesterday) - I can't rebuy this thing every week. So I'll have to stop and get her something else.

It seems well-made and held onto the door frame well. My cat absolutely loved it. Until it broke. The safety clip never detached like it was supposed to and instead the cord itself snapped when he finally chewed through it. I’m a little hesitant to buy this product again since the safety clip would never detach no matter how far away he tried to pull the mouse

My cat likes the toy, but it is not tight enough to stay in the door. He has it down in like 3 seconds. I don't want to stand there and put it up each time he pulls it down.

I have a normal 7' high door frame and the toy is too high for my 4 months old kitten to reach. Def for older cats. Should be stated on there for the toy. There's no extension to it. And the safety release comes off too easily.

This price of this item is economical, but it came damaged. The string that the toy hangs from was tethered + elastic partially snapped. Unfortunately, this wasn't noticable until the toy way removed from the packaging.

Cats bat at it once then left it alone. Good idea just not for my cats.

Loved the idea of this toy, but unfortunately my cats have not touched this once. They prefer the toys I hang on door knobs with strings, although I'm not sure why.
