Simple and Effective
By Arashi on Apr 5, 2021
The creators of this toy understand the simple fundamentals of cat toys: They don't need to be fancy. Sometimes twists of cardboard on a single piece of wire are the most effective toys for cats. My cat's favorite toys (besides the laser pointer) are essentially trash. Crumpled up balls of tin foil, the plastic edge cut off of clamshell packaging, a wad of packaging tape. The wire makes the cardboard twists dance and move erratically in an enticing and unpredictable way that a string doesn't get. I'm not calling this toy trash by any means, but I am saying it harnesses the power of the "trash toys" my cat seems to so much enjoy. It's simple in its concept yet effective in its results.

My one minor issue is that since it is just essentially a long piece of thin wire it's not the easiest to maintain the good grip. Small alterations can help with that if you find necessary, but it's not anything I would complain about. If anything the difficulty to grip it steady means a more bouncing, alluring toy for the cat, but it is something some people may want to take into account. … more

Perfect cat toy!
By Patty on Apr 7, 2021
Less than $2, no assembly required, easy to operate with a flip of the hand ... What's not to love?! Note: BUT if you have trouble picking up small, fine things AND/OR using swinging, swishing cat toys without a handle, this may not be for you. That said, it just might be a perfect cat toy for someone else you know. Consider this: it's such a great, affordable cat toy and it arrives packaged flat so it's easy to wrap or mail. It'd make an excellent little gift to another cat person. I find it's always good to have useful, practical, easy to use, highly recommended (by me) gifts on hand -- buy several. You won't regret it!

Wow who would have thought?
By SFNJ on Mar 27, 2021
This toy is amazing. I never would have thought my cats would love it this much. It’s so simple and yet it drives two out of three of my cats absolutely bananas. I don’t leave it out all the time so as soon as my cats hear me pick it up out of the toy bin they come running. One of my cats is 8 and he jumps and runs around until he’s exhausted. The wire makes the way it moves unpredictable so I think it’s keeps the cats on their toes. Rolled up cardboard is holding up well considering how much action this toy gets. I had to buy another so two of the cats could play at the same time. And for the price you cannot beat it.

Best toy for “hunter” kitties!
By Linds24 on Apr 8, 2021
My boy cat doesn’t care for it much (he’s lazy lol) but my girl cat is OBSESSED with this toy! She’s very much a hunter and this is the only toy she will interact with for as long as I’ll play. I’ve gotten them a lot of toys but this is the only one I’d buy over and over again. We use it every night for months and have only had to buy one so it’s very durable. Definitely recommend!

the best toy
By Blitz on Mar 27, 2021
My cats love these super simple toys. I have one suspended from the ceiling and there is always one of my chonky kitties playing with them. I’m finding that my cats respond way better to wire as opposed to string. I think it’s the movement. That it’s more unpredictable makes it realistic perhaps. I recommend you buy several and keep where you interact with your kitties. My guys are getting much more of the exercise that they need!

One cat likes it
By SMCRL on Mar 3, 2021
This wire toy is not as sturdy as the original Cat Dancer brand. I wish Chewy would bring that brand back. I will have to buy it elsewhere. One cat likes this best but our other cat and I like Cat Dancer best. For me, the Frisco version is not easy to control to direct it better to our cat who plays differently than the other cat who likes the more frenzied movement of this Frisco wire. Now that my more playful cat likes this brand better and our less playful cat will only play with the Cat Dancer, I feel there is room for both brands at Chewy. I, for one, will be buying both to appeal to both our cats' personalities, but I will have to buy the Cat Dancer from another site.

I don't like the flimsy feel of the Frisco, since a person has to make it move for the cat. It's just too bouncy for me. This type of wire toy is their favorite and is requested after their morning breakfast, but now that our most energetic cat has gotten a taste of Frisco's more bouncy version, I must alternate the two brands to appease both cats. High maintenance cats : ) … more

Kitty acrobatics
By CMNJ on Mar 24, 2021 top1000Contributor
Our cats are beyond spoiled and had become bored with their choices for evening play time. They had a similar toy they had destroyed so ordered this. All 3 LOVE this toy. Even my Thomas who tends to do lazy play, comes running across the room and jumping in the air to catch it. Timmy goes to the closet and meows at me to get the toy. Highly recommended. I added 3 more to my next autoship so I have plenty in stock.

Best Cat Toy Ever
By HappyKittyMom on Mar 9, 2021
I can not say enough about this cat toy. I do not understand why but every cat that I have ever had in 20 years LOVES this thing. Such a simple design yet engages cats to play until they fall over panting. I have bought these as gifts for new cat friends and 100 % of them LOVE them as much as my cats have. I continually have to change where this item is stored. My current cats try and open the cabinet or drawer that it is in or will MEOW LOUDLY until I get it out and play with them. They never tire of this interactive toy. Definite props to whoever designed this toy!

A must-buy!
By Tyler on Feb 20, 2021
Of ALL the toys I've ever bought for my present cat, THIS is the one he absolutely LOVES. He was already seven years old when I got him and he had been a barn cat before that. For some strange reason, it's not a normal instinct for him to retract his claws when caught on something, so there are toys he likes but require my getting him 'unhung' onto something like the felt streamer. This toy is perfect for him. I had two cats before him from kittens through adults and they loved this toy as well. The only thing is that when I bought theirs, it came with a 4"-long rounded, wooden handle on it, which gave the person a much, much better way to hold onto and control the movements.

I've not seen one like it since my little boy adopted me nearly 8 yrs ago. (He's a healthy little guy who'll turn 15 in June.) I think the manufacturer should begin making them like that again, too, to give owners a choice. When I bought the one for my kittens, that was in 1993. … more

Best $2 I’ve Ever Spent
By meowmix187 on Apr 12, 2021
My cat Sampson goes crazy for this toy. He pulls it out of his toy box and plays with it all day long. He will come into the room and meow at us until we play with him and he only wants to play with this. It’s relatively cheap, so I think it’s more than worth the money.
