Cats are creatures of habit with short attention spans—that's why brief, scheduled play sessions with your feline are best. Just two or more 10 to 15-minute sessions of interactive play a day is paw-fect and can also help preserve the battery life in your cat's favorite toy. The expected battery life in this toy is 15 hours, so remember to turn it off when it's not being used!
|Battery Type|Number of Batteries|Replaceable (Y/N)| |--|--|--| |AA batteries| 3 | Y |

Favorite Toy!
By CatMomG on Mar 31, 2021
My oldest cat (7 years old) love this toy! She loves it so much the feathers are long gone but still enjoys a few minutes (45 mins) of play time and thought herself how to turn it on. Our youngest wasn’t a fan but it’s worth a buy if your cats don’t like to play with little stuffed animals, balls, bells, or lights. It’s a keeper!

Good for kittens, not adults
By zoe02 on Mar 9, 2021
Kittens love it, but plastic is weak enough for them to bend and sit on it, stopping it. The older cats are too distracted by the loud motor to be interested in the toy, the just sniff the center trying to find the root of the mechanical noise. Stays upright, and feathers are sturdy. Would reccomend for anyone with a cat under 12 weeks, a great way to get their energy out without having to actively play with them all the time. Once they're bigger they seem less interested in chasing it in circles. Timer is great, maybe let it go longer though.

so much fun
By 1234 on Mar 1, 2021
This is the best thing! My cat loves it!!! She gets anxious when me and my husband work all day and it’s a good thing to like press before we leave to engage her in some play and distract her for a little bit even though she plays with it when it’s off as well. Might need to find a replacement for the feathers has had it two weeks and there’s three feathers on the ground I don’t know how long the rest of the feathers will live lol

Loud but fun!
By Littlekittiesbigcity on Mar 30, 2021
My foster kittens had no interest in this toy when we first got it - the motor is quite loud so I think that may have contributed! But after turning it on a couple different occasions, I finally found my foster kitten at the start of a zoomie session and he’s loving it! It’s making him go nuts. I look forward to him being worn out tonight lol.

What an awesome cat toy! My fur babies love it. This keeps my cats entertained for hours and it's so much fun just watching them play with it. It's very durable and high quality. It runs long on the batteries. This is definitely one of the most perfect toys for any cat. HIGHLY RECOMMEND FOR ALL CAT OWNERS!!!!!

Amazing while it lasted ;’(
By kris on Mar 26, 2021
My cat absolutely loved this toy but after only a few weeks of having it, the motor became slow so the speed does not pick up, and I no longer have a feather on it so it’s less fun now but my cat will still ATTEMPT to play with it.lol. I’m going to probably buy a new one if I don’t find a better alternative but keep in mind they’re fragile :(

Maybe it was just the one we got
By Arle on Mar 17, 2021
It didn’t work. We put in a number of new batteries without success. It just wouldn’t do anything. I pick their toys carefully and have been satisfied with all the toys we’ve gotten from Chewy. But this one was dead upon arrival. So we’re out for the money. They are due for another toy. I’ll keep looking. I can’t rate it because it didn’t work.

4 paws up!
By dkn711 on Feb 19, 2021
All 4 of my furbabies love this toy! My 15 year old boy went crazy for it. If it can get an old gentleman like him going, well that’s amazing! He even swats it when it’s off and looks to me to turn it on for him. My 3, 7 year old girls love it too!

Great toy, just not for my cats.
By Catlove on Mar 28, 2021
The toy works great and my cats were interested with it at first, but after the first few minutes of it they lost interest. I think for kittens and younger cats this would be perfect, but my cats like a little more action and for me to play with them I guess.
