Cat Dancer Cat Charmer Wand Cat Toy

I have 9 cats and spend a fortune for toys for their xmas stockings. I probably have over 3 huge trash bags full of toys they got tired of or didn't play with long, along with all those wand toys that broke, were too short, too long, or too heavy to hold long and hurt the cats when they got batted on the head with them. These are perfect. The cats love them, you can manipulate them in many swirling ways, they don't have any sharp or hard parts to hurt them, and they are so lightweight you don't get tired or hurt your arms trying to play with them. The wands are quality, lightweight and flexible, and the fleece ribbon is nearly weightless but easy to play with. You might even enjoy just playing with it yourself like the exercise ribbons they made years ago. The price ... MoreI have 9 cats and spend a fortune for toys for their xmas stockings.

You might even enjoy just playing with it yourself like the exercise ribbons they made years ago. The price is very reasonable, and it is the best wand toy out there. I paid a fortune for a famous retractable fishing pole type toy last xmas and it lasted one day, wouldn't retract anymore, was too heavy, and the cats didn't like it. This is much nice and far cheaper. I have 14 of them now, since I buy them every year for their stockings because I can't find anything better out there.

Env: developmentOverall, the cat charmer is a nice product to get cats up and moving. I've had mine for a couple of years and have not had any damage to it, and it appears to be pretty sturdily made. It's got a clear, acrylic handle with a long, soft fabric tail. It's not my cat's favorite toy to play with. He will go after it for about 5 minutes at a time, and then he's done with it. He has other toys that seem to capture his interest for much longer spells at a time (such as the Go Cat Da Bird). That said, I like to "mix it up" a little and use different toys to keep his curiosity piqued, and for that reason, I am glad I added this to his toy collection. It's important to keep things fresh and interesting for an indoor cat that needs stimulation. This does get ... MoreEnv: developmentOverall, the cat charmer is a nice product to get cats up and moving.

It's important to keep things fresh and interesting for an indoor cat that needs stimulation. This does get him moving (running, jumping, swatting) even if it doesn't continue to motivate him very long. I also like that this is a very safe toy- if you accidentally hit your kitty (or a bystander) with this, it's just a nice soft fabric that won't hurt anyone. It would also be difficult to knock over a beverage with it, since it's so lightweight. All in all, a good product!Env: development

This is absolutely my cats favorite toy by far! Every day, all day long, she literally bugs me to take it out to play with her. The funny thing is that, not only does she play with the tail, she loves the stick also! And the connecting part! She doesn't just chase it, she jumps up to get the stick part; the higher the better. I call her my Cirque de Soleil cat! When I get tired of playing with it she plays with it by herself. She drags it all over the house. I have found it in my bathtub!The one I had was worn out and and, since Lira chews on the connection, it finally broke off. I tied the tail on but still decided to buy a new one .It coincidentally was on sale so I bought three of them. I volunteer at a cat adoption center which is where I discovered this.

The cats love to chase it but I never had one jump up in the air for it like Lira does. I would say to definitely buy this if you have a cat.
