My little one took to the fishing rod really well. I reinforced it a bit straight away... The feathers were glued in place, and the rods were glued together too. That way, it lasts relatively long. And my little one isn’t exactly gentle with it. She drags her prey around the flat. The first rod gave up the ghost after 4 weeks. But I’ve already ordered a spare in advance.

This cat wand looks nice, and I can use it to encourage my cat to play. She jumps really high to catch the feather. She also likes playing with it on the floor afterwards and biting into it properly. For this reason, these wands don’t last very long with us. But the cat really enjoys them. However, the human has to join in and move the wand in an "enticing" way for the cat.

Due to the arrangement of the feathers, it actually simulates butterflies or birds better. Unfortunately, it doesn’t last half a minute with my cats before the first feathers start flying, and with painstaking reassembly, you can barely extend its lifespan to 5 minutes before the thing completely falls apart... Therefore, unfortunately, it’s poor quality.

If it hadn’t broken after just 10 minutes. And my two are only 5 months old. The attachment of the springs also needs to be reconsidered. The clip is dangerous if the cats bite into the springs. Such a shame, because my little tomcat was absolutely crazy about the toy.

The quality of the fishing rod is unfortunately very poor – after barely 10 minutes of play, all the feathers were torn out. I managed to stick it back together somehow with parcel tape, and it’s actually the most popular toy here. My cats love this rod so much that I have to properly hide it when it’s not in use. The price is good, but the craftsmanship definitely needs improvement...

The fishing rod consists of two relatively thin poles that can be joined together to reach full length. Unfortunately, it’s a bit of a gamble to get them securely connected; otherwise, the pole tends to come apart when playing tug-of-war with the cat. A threaded connection would have definitely helped here. The feathers make great flying noises and even manage to get our lazy cat excited to play again. As for durability, I can’t say much after just three days, but I certainly won’t leave the rod at the cats’ disposal, as the feathers seem very fragile and delicate.

The flight pattern and the whirring sound in the air awaken the hunting instinct even in the laziest house cat! A lovely, albeit often short-lived toy. The natural feathers also trigger the chewing instinct of the little hunter, so after "catching" it, a thorough treatment with teeth and claws follows... The disassembly rate of the flying part is accordingly high... If the feather parts were available cheaply in packs of ten, I’d give it 5 stars :-)...

This toy awakens the hunting instinct in even the laziest house cat – five stars for that. But the durability is absolutely terrible: the feathers seem to just be loosely inserted, so it happens that after only 30 minutes of play and fun, the cat has already ripped them out and happily chewed them in the furthest corner. If I hadn’t taken the individual feathers away, they probably would have been eaten :O It would therefore make sense to offer a refill pack of replacement feathers along with the wand. Especially since the feathers are already delivered on a separate feather ring.

My two young cats (5 months old) absolutely love this toy. Unfortunately, the feather tuft is completely destroyed by the second day at the latest because the cats chew on it. The rod and the string would last much longer. Perhaps the manufacturer should offer replacement feather tufts that could be attached to the rod. I've now attached a toy mouse instead, but it’s not as well received.

My hyperactive Coonie and the tomcats absolutely love the fluttery feather toy. Assembling the rod takes a bit of effort, but once it's put together, it's very sturdy. So far, my cats haven't managed to dismantle the rod or the string. Unfortunately, after two months, the feather has been chewed up and fallen off, which is understandable given how much it's been used. The rod is still intact and, thanks to its flexibility and reach, it's fantastic. Now there's something else attached to it, and it still gets the cats racing around.

The item looks nice, the tomcats went crazy for it and the stick even held up, but within a few minutes my two young cats had torn apart all the feathery bits. Such a shame. I'd recommend spending a bit more money instead.

Great toy! Since I have two tomcats, there were fights, so I had to order a second fishing rod.

The rod couldn't be assembled properly; I had to glue it together. Even the feathers were already on the floor after 10 minutes and had to be fixed with tape as well. Now it no longer makes those great fluttering sounds! The cats would have been really excited about it—great toy—but I'd rather pay £5 or more for something with solid craftsmanship and longer durability. Having to glue everything back together after 10 minutes is just annoying!!!

My tomcat loved it – until he plucked out all the feathers. Quick tip: Just buy some new feathers and stuff them into the holder, they stay in place pretty well and the fun can continue!

The feather wand immediately caught the attention of both our cats (1 year old) – especially Jeany. Unfortunately, the small wire holder that connects the string and feathers broke after the second play session, but it was expertly repaired with a small piece of heat-shrink tubing. At this price, it’s not a big deal. A video I made of both cats playing with the wand can be found on YouTube – title: "Billy Jeany Feather Wand." Conclusion: Great toy – imitates a bird very well – unfortunately breaks quickly – but good price.

Just arrived, unpacked, and the problems started right away. The two-part rod keeps falling apart and had to be fixed with tape. After 2-3 play sessions, the spring holder tore, and the springs keep falling out as well. Conclusion: Not usable, even though the cat enjoys playing with it.

As soon as our tomcat bit into it or got caught on it for the first time, the first feather already came off. After two days, all the feathers were gone. I definitely won’t be buying this again!

A lovely toy, our two little rascals go absolutely wild when we bring it out. Highly recommended! And the price... you don’t need to think twice about whether to get it or not. Clearly, it’s a must-have :-)

My two little rascals go absolutely wild whenever I bring out the wand toy. I always have to hide it when we're not playing, otherwise, it gets completely destroyed. Normally, they don’t show long-term interest in any cat toy, and their urge to move around isn’t particularly strong either, but with this "prey bird," long-lost hunting instincts suddenly come alive. The stick, which can be assembled, is almost twice as long as other typical wand toys, giving you a great range. Unfortunately, the feathers don’t last very long, but given the affordable price, you can just order several at once, and the little predators can regularly burn off their energy with them. I’ve also gifted a few to friends, and their cats are just as thrilled. So, I can only recommend it!

My two Coonies absolutely love the wand toy. As soon as I bring it out, there's no stopping them!
