Best product in the cat fishing rod category!
I read in the reviews that some people criticise the feather piece separating from the rod. That’s correct and has been the case with all of the approximately 20 Crinkle Dancer feather wands I’ve ordered so far. But that’s not a flaw! It actually enhances the fun during playtime, as the cat can then run off with the fluffy bit. It doesn’t separate (!!!) easily from the rod, but only after some serious tugging. My three Bengals absolutely love this wand, and once you’ve tried it, you’ll keep buying it again and again.

Too large for small breeds
This is a very well made toy and appeals to both sound and sight. However, the head is huge by comparison to other ‘feather duster’ type wand toys. My cats took one look and told me to stuff it! My girl is obsessed with wand toys so I can only assume she was put off my the size.

Could be improved
The cat absolutely loves it, but unfortunately, the quality isn’t great – the inner part comes off after a short time.

Cat magnet
I went through the door with the fluffy toy, and in no time, the cats were clinging to the feather wand. They were absolutely over the moon with joy. It’s super sturdy and replaces another very expensive fluffy toy, which has now lost most of its feathers.
The plastic crinkle in the middle is what makes this fluffy toy so special. TOP PRODUCT!
My now-retired one was more expensive, and even with that one (as mentioned by another reviewer here), the wand separated from the feathers. Duct tape was the quick fix.

Doesn't hold
I’ve always had the Feather Dancer, and my cats, whether big or small, absolutely love it. At first, they were startled by the size of this wand, and not all of them play with it. The first one broke after just one play session – the cat gave it a quick tug and ended up with the movable piece and feathers in its mouth, while I was left holding the stick, unfortunately separated from the rest. The craftsmanship/gluing doesn’t seem to be particularly good, which I’m not used to with the Feather Dancer and certainly didn’t expect for the price.

Lovely product - the effects encourage playful antics :-)
My cat's favourite toy! I used to always buy the cheap wands, but now I’ve got two of these and I’m absolutely thrilled! Very well made, and the crinkling effect combined with the feathers really encourages play. Occasionally a feather might come off, but that’s just how it goes. I’d buy them again and again :-)

Great toy
For my two British Shorthair cats, the feather wand has become their favourite toy. Especially the tomcat has enormous fun jumping after the wand.
It’s a bit pricey, but it was worth it.

Absolutely top!
After some initial hesitation (the thing is quite large, about the size of a cat’s head), it’s now being played with enthusiastically. The rustling sound is fantastic. Can’t say much about durability yet, but it seems sturdy and has barely lost any feathers so far.
Small downside: The annoying sticker on the stick is almost impossible to remove.

Extremely massive
For large cats, definitely 5 stars. Mine, despite being feather junkies, are a bit scared of the massive bundle. The Feather Dancer is better suited for them. One star deducted because you can’t store the thing properly, and it’s clearly oversized for medium-sized cats. If that were mentioned, it would be 5 stars, as I can definitely see it being great for large cats.

Not interested
Our cats love the budget version of the feather wand, but unfortunately, it loses all its feathers after just three play sessions. So, I thought I’d try this sturdier version, but neither of them has any interest in it at all. The quality might be fine, but for us, the wand just sits in the drawer, so it doesn’t get a full star rating.

Highly sought-after
A great play wand for romping around. The rustling effect makes it even more exciting.

By far the best cat wand.
We’ve tried quite a few cat wands for our little rascals. Unfortunately, most of them only lasted a few minutes to, at best, a couple of days. The cats either tore them apart or promptly ripped off the attached pieces. This sturdy wand has already lasted a few months (even though it’s lost a few feathers along the way), and our pets play with it several times a day. A definite recommendation!

The hit
The cat goes absolutely wild for it, very high-quality, really well received, provides long-lasting playtime. I have to hide it now and then because he grabs it from everywhere and drags it off. Well, actually, I’d deduct one star because the feathers fall out quickly, but that’s the case with all feather toys. And really, another star off because it’s quite expensive.

Fun to play vs durability
It was great fun for my two one-and-a-half-year-old Burmese cats to catch the waving bundle of feathers and crinkling foil strips. Unfortunately, the fun didn’t last long. After a few minutes, the feathers started coming loose, and after three days, the flexible front rod detached from its connection.
The image and the price led me to believe it was a higher-quality product. I wouldn’t recommend the Crinkle Dancer – at least not for lively cats.

My kitten loves this wand!
I got the fishing rod for my little Norwegian from the breeder. And the little darling loves it. She drags it everywhere and has already got the other cats hooked on it. The rod has quickly become the favourite toy!

His favourite toy
This is by far our kitten's favourite toy. He plays with it with us, he plays with it on his own, he carries it around the house. He attacks it and chews on it and it's still intact - very well made!

Well...
I was recommended the cat wand. Unfortunately, it’s not going down so well with us. Little Bear is more scared of it, but maybe the fun with the wand will come later. :)
It seems to be popular with other cats though.

Disappointing?
When I first unpacked the cat wand, I was personally very disappointed because I had imagined something a bit more "sturdy." However, my first impression was completely wrong. This cat wand is an absolute hit with my two cats. They would love to play with it all day and are more than thrilled. We now have a second one in the house so there's always one ready to use. And sturdy it certainly is.
A clear recommendation to buy!
