Absolute favourite toy!
My cat goes absolutely crazy for this play wand! It's his absolute favourite toy that never gets boring; just for that reason alone, the purchase has been totally worth it for me.
The long stick makes it the best wand toy I've ever bought, as it gives you loads of freedom to move around. Plus, it flies beautifully through the air! Unfortunately, the first wand was completely plucked after a while, but that always happens to us with feather toys and can be avoided if you simply put the toy away after playtime. We've been using it non-stop for 4 days now, and not a single feather has come off yet.
I can wholeheartedly recommend this product!

Favourite toy, but quickly destroyed
This cat wand is my two cats' absolute favourite toy. Probably because it visually and in terms of its flight characteristics resembles a bird. You could keep the cats entertained for hours with it, if it weren’t for the big downside that, as soon as the cat grabs the wand for the first time, the feathers get ripped out. None of the six wands we’ve bought so far has lasted a single day. If this flaw were fixed, it would be the ultimate toy.

Top value for money
This is THE ultimate toy. I can't complain about the quality at all. We've played thousands of times now, and the fishing rod just keeps holding up and holding up and holding up. Brilliant price!!! Highly recommended!

Super!
Great toy for our two cats, they love it and play with it all the time, but unfortunately, the toy broke apart after a few days... we've now ordered a second one... maybe the toy could be improved so that it lasts longer...

Great toy, but it shouldn't be left out in the open.
Our cat loves this wand – he tore the first one apart in no time, so I’m being more careful with the second one now. The feathers shouldn’t touch the floor, so they can’t be tugged at; that way, the wand lasts longer. If you don’t pay attention, the wand ends up plucked like a chicken… maybe it’s just too bird-like?

Unfortunately, it had to be changed to keep the fun alive!!!
After a few days, the string kept twisting, and the fun was completely gone. My partner then improved the string using a component from fishing. Now the component rotates, and the string stays straight.

For our tomcats, the new favourite toy
I never would have thought it, but our two tomcats (10 months old) go absolutely wild, racing around the house when the feathers swirl through the air. They could do this all day because their interest is just so huge. Of course, at this price, it’s not a toy that will last for years, but that doesn’t bother me at all, as we’ll simply buy new ones at this price. Unfortunately, I can’t reorder them at the moment since ours has already been pretty well plucked ;-) but you can still keep playing with it. A fantastic product for our two!

THE cat toy par excellence!!!
We had to find a secret spot for the cat wand because otherwise, the cats would tear the whole thing apart like crazy. As soon as we pick up the wand, we feel like Siegfried and Roy, as if we had tigers at home instead of cats. Both of them go absolutely wild and get completely out of breath. That’s how we discovered that cats can pant! Playing becomes so much more fun for both the owners and the cats. Occasionally, the feathers might come loose from the rubber wrapping, but you can easily fix that with some electrical tape or Tixo, and honestly, at this price, it doesn’t hurt to just throw it away and buy a new one—or better yet, get the pack of three. Our cats love it like crazy. We can only recommend this toy!

Broken after a few gaming sessions
No toy has ever managed to get my 10-year-old cat so excited as this one – for that, the cat wand deserves 5 stars. But what’s the point of a toy that only lasts a few days? For that, it gets no stars!!! I’m ordering it again and hoping it lasts longer – with this hope, I’m giving an average rating of 2 stars...

Great fishing rod, but poor quality
The fishing rod was a big hit with our tomcat and cat. The fun even surpassed that of a mouse fishing rod. Unfortunately, the elastic band was bitten through after the first play session, as the tomcat was very reluctant to give up his prey. Additionally, one feather fell off straight away. Conclusion: Great fun, but even at a low price, the rod should last longer than one play session.

Absolutely brilliant
Since we have four of these little furry friends, variety is really important. With this wand, all four of them "fly" into the air with sheer excitement to catch it. Unfortunately, the feathers bend very quickly; but otherwise, the wand is an absolute hit and highly recommended!

Endurance Toy
My cats – especially my tomcat – absolutely love this wand toy! Now he can really show off what he’s capable of! Unfortunately, the string was completely tangled when I unpacked it, so I’m deducting one point.

Great
The best workout for my lazy cat, who just refuses to move during winter and go outside. Played with the wand for 15 minutes, and the lady is completely worn out. Simply brilliant.

Short-lived fun
The price is simply unbeatable, which is why we bought it straight away for our little kitten. However, despite the low price, you have to admit that for longer-lasting playtime fun, you should definitely opt for better quality – the wand was already featherless and therefore unusable after just 4 days of short play sessions – and that’s with our 12-week-old kitten. How long would it last with a fully grown cat?
Conclusion: Not recommended, but in a different version, it’s sure to be great fun for playful kittens :)

Totally awesome fun for the little ones!
Tried it out now. My tigers are jumping all over the living room, criss-crossing in pursuit of the thing. Absolutely hilarious to watch. If you let one of the two enjoy the triumph, the prey is defended fiercely. There's hissing as if it were a real bird.

Durability leaves much to be desired - unfortunately
It’s my three Coonies’ favourite toy. I’ve tried many other fishing rods, but they’re not interested in those anymore. They chase after it, and they’re allowed to catch the feathers too. Unfortunately, the feathers aren’t securely attached and regularly get pulled out, after which they hide and dismantle their prey. I wish the craftsmanship were better so the rod would be more durable. That’s why I’m deducting a point.

Great toy, but….
The feathers were carried off by my young tomcat within minutes without the wand... such a shame, otherwise it would really be a fantastic toy for very active, under-stimulated cats or young cats.

Got the wand today and tried it out straight away. At first, I was sceptical about the feathers, but they don’t fall apart.
The attachment of the feathers to the string is a bit delicate, as the fixing came loose straight away, but you can easily put the feathers back on and keep playing. You just have to avoid tugging too hard when the tigers have the feathers in their mouths.
Conclusion: our boys went absolutely wild. The feathers have a great "flight path" and provide plenty of variety. You don’t really need the extra-long rod indoors, but it’s handy to have.
We think the wand is great!!

SUPER cat teaser
We've tried various cat wands before – this one is our little one's favourite. Thanks to the feathers, it flies brilliantly and really triggers our little one's hunting instinct. However, after a few weeks of regular play, the string tends to snap, so it's better to order the 3-pack to always have a spare at home :-) The price is unbeatable nonetheless.
