SENSATIONAL product!
My kitty has now enthusiastically and wholeheartedly worn out one Fire Dancer per year, and I’m treating her to the fourth one now. Even when there were only feather remnants left at the tip, she still wanted me to entertain her with it several times a day. This flexible wand is the only toy so far that my kitty has truly embraced with persistence and great joy. The Fire Dancer gets a "Very Good" with a gold star from us!

Cats love it, but it breaks easily.
The cats really enjoy playing with it, but where it's put together, it comes apart and doesn't hold anymore. This is probably already my fifth play wand. Unfortunately, it doesn't hold when you try to stick it back into the plastic. I find it very disappointing.

particularly loved
I got it as a gift, and my cat doesn’t just leave it lying around. :)
She takes it everywhere, and if it moves even a millimetre, she runs to it from 100 metres away.
Sure, she has several toys, but none of them have sparked as much interest as this one.

Favourite toy
Our young cat loves this toy. She carries it around like a dog and constantly asks us to play with her using it. She even takes it to bed and everywhere else, hardly ever letting it out of her sight. The toy is already thoroughly loved. We’ve ordered a second one as a backup. Unfortunately, it arrived in a different colour. We also noticed a rather strong smell of the feathers, reminiscent of formaldehyde. We’re not sure how cat toys are tested, and we don’t want our cat to be harmed, especially since she carries the toy around in her mouth all the time. For now, we’ve put the new "stick" away and only use it under supervision. Due to the strong smell and the associated concerns, we’re deducting two points. For the fun factor, though, it’s a full five points!

Favourite toy
Our cat Lucy (blind) absolutely loves this feather dancer. The longer white feathers create such great sounds that she can chase after it and jump up super enthusiastically. Quite often, she runs around the flat with the feathers in her mouth, and the flexible extension ensures she doesn’t get caught anywhere. I think the price/performance ratio is fair.

Favourite toy
The Feather Dancer even beats the Crinkle Dancer and takes the top spot in my kitties' toy charts. They go absolutely wild just when I walk towards the cupboard where their beloved wand is kept. The quality is good; hunting, stalking, and jumping are no problem for the Feather Dancer. Occasionally, a feather might come loose, but that's definitely manageable.

Great for all age groups
This fishing rod inspires even my 17-year-old senior cat to perform at her best! The sound is like rustling feathers, and the flexibility of the rod gives it a special bounce. Everyone plays with it, yet it’s still very durable – even though the feathers are thoroughly attacked and groomed. The purchase was more than worth it!

A bit noisy, but otherwise great.
I've had the feather duster for almost a year now, and it’s incredibly durable. My cats love playing with it. At first, they were a bit scared because it’s quite loud, but then they really got into it.

Very popular + also very durable
I’ve ordered 5 of these so far, 3 of which are no longer around as they’ve been used up over time. This leather dancer is very popular with our 3 cats (aged 2–3 years) and gets a lot of heavy use. It withstands most attacks without damage, though the white feathers do tend to fall off relatively quickly.
I’d appreciate it if you could choose the colour yourself.

Ultimate favourite fishing rod II.!
Another ultimate favourite toy! ;-)
All three of our cats go crazy for the fluttering sound it makes when you jerk the wand back and forth. The feathers on this toy are a real feast for our furry friends' eyes. It's like flipping a switch – suddenly, all they care about is hunting! The wand is actually quite sturdy, but I’d still recommend getting two of them. Favourite toys tend to get played with more often and more intensely. Top marks from me!

The big hit that unfortunately broke straight away
For two days straight, one of our cats spent every waking minute chasing this wand – the toy was an absolute hit, and I would have loved to give my little one many more hours of fun with it if it had lasted longer. Unfortunately, after two days, the entire feather part fell off. Admittedly, the cat was extremely rough with it, but it is a cat toy, after all. I didn’t expect the wand to last forever, but our cheap homemade creations from leftover materials lasted longer (though they weren’t half as popular).
Such a shame.

Bouncy toy
Super, my cat Gino is absolutely crazy about the feather dancer, I can really get him to play with it. It's just a shame that the feathers come off so quickly. We've never had better toys until now, and the Cat Dancer is also ideal...

Unfortunately, with a nasty smell of oil
Basically, this is a great toy; we previously had the Feather Crinkle from another manufacturer! That one was 1000 times better.
This one smelled so strongly of motor oil that even the cat, who absolutely loves feathers, wouldn’t go near it.
Even washing it didn’t help, so we had no choice but to bin it.

HAMMER Spring Dancer...but...
The feather dancer is the best toy we've ever bought. Our two tomcats go absolutely crazy for it. No matter where they are in the house, as soon as the feather dancer rustles, they're both there ready to play. Sometimes they even beg us to play with them, which no other toy has ever managed to do before.
Now for the downside... the bristle feathers, which seem to be such a hit, get chewed up quite a bit, and during wild play, the bristles and feathers unfortunately come off very quickly. Since the feather dancers are currently on offer, I'm ordering a quick restock anyway, because there’s probably nothing better for our cats to play with. :o)

Hmm... that's debatable...
When I ordered this toy for the first time, my two tomcats went absolutely wild. One of them even went so crazy that he dashed around the flat like mad and wouldn’t let go of the toy at all. When I hid the toy later on because otherwise he wouldn’t have calmed down at night, he got sulky and meowed non-stop :) Well... since the first one seemed relatively sturdy and was constantly monopolised by one of the cats, I went ahead and ordered three more so the other one wouldn’t have to just watch and we’d have some spares. Then the second delivery arrived: the dancers looked completely different this time (coloured red and green), and after less than a day, I had to throw the first one away because the feathers had come loose from the holder – and that kept happening day after day. Now I’m totally disappointed with the toy and the current price!!! At €8, you really have to wonder if it’s worth it for this kind of quality?! But as far as the cats’ playfulness is concerned – absolutely: THUMBS UP.

Super Christmas present
One of our four cats is absolutely obsessed with this wand toy. From 5 a.m. onwards, as soon as she's awake, she already wants to play with it. We have to play with her all day long—barely are we home when she starts meowing for the wand and stands in front of the cupboard where we keep it. The only downside is that we humans are completely exhausted. This wand toy is a must-have for every cat! If you swing it up and down quickly, take a listen—it almost sounds like a real bird flying. And it's super sturdy.

Great toy
Our cat loves this toy! And the best part is, it really lasts a long time. Other cheaper feather wands were often ready for the bin within just a few days. This toy has already lasted 2 weeks and is still almost as good as new (just a few feathers missing). I’d buy it again anytime, even though it’s admittedly quite expensive.

Amazing piece!
Our "adopted" cat (she technically belongs to the neighbour but spends a lot of time with us) goes absolutely crazy just seeing this thing. And then it's all systems go!! Even the tomcat, who's usually not much of a playful type, wants to join in from his spot on the shelf! So, we bought a second toy, and now everyone's happy...

Great toy, but unfortunately it got torn up quickly.
My two 7-month-old tomcats went absolutely wild. They were literally flying through the flat, always chasing after the wand, so fast that sometimes you couldn’t even react in time. Unfortunately, this super wand only lasted one day... The front part of the wand isn’t properly "secure," so it can come loose if the cat pulls on it. One of my two wouldn’t let go of this front piece anymore; he even growled when I tried to take it away from him. The straw-like threads were then pulled out along with the feathers. Such a shame. For me, the purchase wasn’t really worth it. The wand might be more suitable for older cats who aren’t quite as boisterous.

Sensational piece!
The idea for this definitely came from true cat enthusiasts. The wobbling part on the teaser is an absolute hit with my kitty, even though the feathers quickly end up being just a few remnants.
