Amazing
The handle is SUPER long so the toy can move very far very fast , but you can also take it apart to store it inbetween uses!

Best toy ever
I can't overstate how much my cat loves this toy. The length helps to get him running and leaping, he is now an indoor cat so great for us. Playing with it is all he wants to do now - beware!

Incredible
I had no idea it would be as long as it was, my cats have never got to play with a toy that covers such a large space so easily before, they both love it!
Endlessly reattach
Good idea for a Da Bird competitor but a couple of concerns with this toy. With enthusiastic play the stick comes apart at the join and constantly needs putting back together. There is also a fair bit of metal to allow connecting different toy attachments so extra care needs to be taken to avoid eye / teeth injuries.
Lasted less than 5 minutes with kittens
I bought these for the rescue I volunteer for. The feathers were pulled out in seconds by kittens (circa 3-4 months old). Hopeless and a waste of money.

The most tangled toy ever
It doesn't have rotating parts, so it gets all tangled after seconds of use! Do not get it, it doesn't work as intended.

Fun cheap toy
My boy loves anything with feathers, and we've got several of these over the years. I find it too difficult to maneuver if you add the bottom part of the handle, so I just use the top part. As with any toy, they get muched on and destroyed, but that's to be expected. For the price, this is great value, and provides hours of.fun before needing to be replaced.
Very good
My cat loves this toy! It’s well made and feathers look good.

Zena loves it
All cats are different, but mine went nuts when she saw this. Love the motion it makes. Zena adores play time with it
Love it!!!
This is very similar to my cats favourite toy from the one I buy at pets at home but way cheaper and more durable. So far all the feathers have managed to stay on whereas on the other one it wouldn’t last more than 20 minutes!
Old design was better
This toy was much better then the attachments had metal balls instead of plastic bc the toy could spin and it wouldn't get tangled constantly. Was v good before that. A lot of hassle now.

Didn't last long...
My cat occasionally likes to play with swishy toys and he seemed quite engaged with chasing it and chewing on the feathers... until he chewed through the "string" meaning that within ten minutes of me detaching it from the cardboard packaging, he has broken it. I'll keeep trying to tie it back together, but I don't see it lasting much longer, which is a shame.
New favorite
My cats love this toy, it's got my girl going nuts every day, she hasn't tired of it at all.

Hounded Daily
RESTOCK ASAP PLEASE I've purchased 10+ down to 3! My cat loves these feathers! This design the feather SPINs so expect you fur baby to turn into a full on hunter predator. To those pet parents rated 1 star Think what happens to string when it turns. Try some patience & attention to detail with turning the opposite way your cat will spend ages playing with it requesting it daily

Birdlike
This flexible real feather dangle toy spins as it flies and gets my cats leaping and playing.
I have to hide it when nit in use or they get it out themselves.
Excellent value toy
|
Terrible design
Tangles within seconds, the clip design needs to be able to spin to stop the string coiling around it. Really terrible so disappointing

Cat loves it
My cat struggles with playing. She'll freak out when she catches most toys but this one she's very happy playing with. Maybe I've got lucky compared to reviews that say it falls apart but she's very violent with it and aside from losing one of the feathers (which you expect to happen with time) it's not in any way damaged.

My cats’ favourite toy
All three of my cats love this toy. Our black cat grabs the feather in her mouth and brings us the toy, meowing - as she wants us to play with her. Definitely the best cat toy we have. She prefers this one to the £8 equivalent at our local pet shop.

The best fishing rod
The best fishing rod my kitty has ever had! She loves playing with it and goes absolutely crazy for it. She’s lost interest in her other toys – this one is definitely her favourite! 🐱

Gets tangled up
Unfortunately, the string gets tangled and twisted together after just a short time of play. Otherwise, it would have been really good since the stick is longer than on regular rods.

Used to be the best toy on the market, sadly not anymore.
I've used these fishing rods for years and they were always the toy that every cat I knew found interesting. I often gave them as gifts to new cat owners because I was so enthusiastic about them. Now, with a new kitten, I bought 3 new rods, but unfortunately the swivel has been replaced with a plastic thing that makes the string twist together after just a few swings through the air, and it takes about a minute to untangle it. Had to buy new swivels at the fishing shop.

Essential
I bought the three-piece set hoping my kitten would play with it, and I was surprised: he absolutely loves it. It's his favourite toy ever. He plays with both the full wand and when it's taken apart (just the bottom part as a stick, or with the wand assembled but without the feather part), and just hearing the sound makes him run to play no matter where he is in the house—he's already destroyed two of them!

Cats are addicted
I've got three tomcats and they've loved it from the very start. By now, the feathers are gone and only tatters are left, but my cats still chase after it.

Good cat teaser
It's basically good and was well received. Unfortunately, like most toys, it broke pretty quickly.

Bird fishing rod for cat
My cat loves playing with this toy. After a few rounds, she gets tired out. The advantage is the "telescopic" rod, which increases the range. The downside is the "lure"—the feathers get damaged quickly when the cat catches them. There's no option to buy replacement "inserts", even though you can unclip them. The price matches the quality. I recommend it.

The favourite toy
I added them to my order using points and then bought them again because my pets ended up destroying them from playing so much. The value for money is really good. It has a very long stick which makes it easy to play with them. Yes, the string does tend to get tangled quickly, but it's still a good toy.

Great toy
My Ragdoll kittens love this teaser wand and chase after the feathers 😊.
You do have to be careful with the string though, as it can get bitten through pretty quickly – well, it happens. That's why I ordered 3 straight away, so I've got some spares 😁.

Crazy about it
If my cat could write this review, he would give the toy 10/10. However, I’m worried that it might damage his teeth. My cat likes to bite the string and the plastic piece that holds the feather in place.
The wand is very long, which makes it hard to handle, but the feathers are quite durable.

Super cool
The cat chases it like crazy, it's long and easy to play with. Honestly, it's the perfect toy—my cat chewed it to bits, but a bit of tape fixed it. Great value for money!

For the hunter
Very good product, my cat has a great time playing with it. It’s a perfect substitute for a real bird – my cat really got into the "hunt", and no living creature was harmed.

Bad
Unfortunately, the springs twist around themselves, which causes the rope to spin and constantly get tangled. Sadly, I can't recommend it at all.

The best fishing rod
My cat is absolutely thrilled with this fishing rod toy. It's his absolute favourite. It's a pity you can't buy replacement attachments for it separately.

Good price for a playtime favourite
The cats absolutely love it! I didn’t have much trouble with the rope getting tangled, and the two pieces don’t come apart during play either.
The rope just isn’t very sturdy—one of my cats likes to chew on string and managed to break this toy surprisingly quickly, so make sure to put it away when you’re not around! And watch out for choking hazards if the rope comes loose! (He managed it during a quick bathroom break, unbelievable.)

The best rod
My cats love it. More than any other feather wand toy.
The way it moves mimics a bird in flight.
