Liked the price compared to pets shops where its 8 pounds, but this particular model tangles a lot and you end up with knots very quickly. Bought 10 as thought it would be a bargain , cats loved them, but I do not like the design as much

This has always been my cat’s favourite toy. The new design, with the clip-on feathers, couldn’t have had much testing because it just doesn’t work. Not only does it get tangled more easily, but the line also bunches up and becomes half the length. Please bring back the old design!

This is a very long, light feather toy made with a composite material that reminds me (frankly) of a car aerial – it's very flexible and easily manipulated. As others mention, the string is prone to getting tangled and does form knots occasionally. However, my cat (a ragdoll) _bloody loves it_. I get chirrupy meow noises periodically and have to play with him until he's contented, eats, and sleeps. Often I run out of energy before he does. It's a light, simple toy and flies through the air well.

The boys love this new toy, even my timid shy boy is flying out of nowhere to join his brothers to play but damn that string! It’s so so annoying it keeps getting tangled and I have to sit straightening out whilst they impatiently wait to play 😭 will definitely have to look for an alternative of something similar as they love it so much!

It does get very tangled because it spins in the air. I solved this problem by using a fisherman's swivel to attach it. Works a treat now

I have bought this item for the last 8/9yrs. It is still the cats favourite toy, but their has been some changes, the feathers have got a little sparser,for some reason the string now seems to get more in a knot, so I’m constantly untangling it, this may have something to do with replacing the metal beading to plastic ( which is a good thing ) this means I have to keep buying new ones

This toy is the best thing I have ever bought my cats. It even taught my very shy, anxious cat how to play and enjoy herself! Both of my cats (one male, one female) will play with this thing for hours. The string gets tangled because it’s thin elastic, but we haven’t found it to be anything more than a slight nuisance.

My cats used to love this toy and spent hours chasing them. The new design now means I spend more time untangling it than playing with my cats. Not sure why they would approve a new design that’s so much worse than the original.

The toy is so easy to work with, I really enjoy the fact that you can extend the holding stick, my cat is crazy about this toy, perfect imitation of bird, also excellent express delivery service, thank you

I don’t know about the old design but this is now my cats favourite toy

I've two cats and they adore this toy, I have to buy 6 to last me a year. They're really easily broken but have a realistic flutter which my cats love.

Unfortunately as others have found without a swivel of some sort or a different line, The New Cat Dangler tangles far too easily, the old design worked.

Please go back to the old design, yes it wasn't 100% Purfect, but it worked & it worked great. I was willing to keep buying when it broke because my cats loved it so much. This one is completely un-usable as it tangles all the time, every time! No one else makes anything close to this. This new design DOES NOT WORK! It needs the original metal (or even plastic) beads, as it's this that allows the feather to spin in the air without tangling as soon as its waved in the air.

Cat dangler toy has long been a favourite with all our cats. Hugely disappointed that re-design means that, after just a few seconds of play, the string becomes a tangled mess and you have to stop and disentangle it. Hoping the manufacturers will revert to original design with metal swivel as the new version is no use at all for our lively and impatient Bengal.

This used to be one of my cats favourite toys. I ordered more (as feathers wear out quickly) & didn't realise that the attachment design had changed. This affects the way the feathers move, they used to swoop in a bird flying motion, the new design just flops about & tangles. Please zooplus go back to the old design as this one is awful!

I have never seen my cat jump so high and I've never seen him get so excited with any of his toys before. Thank you so much.

Why ruin something that worked great This new design is rediculas, constantly tangles up One swoop & it back to waiting for it to unwind So so upset & really annoyed at who ever for this new plastic clip was the way forward Can't be used all in bin Cats are furious, this was there most bestest toy in the world!
