It is a really good concept and creates different play as you can actually move the toy in a bit more fixed and controlled way as it is on a pole, not string. My kitten went mad for it, but it didn't last long at all, feathers started to fall out and the pole pulls out now, although you can put it back, but it is annoying as kitten now constantly pulls it out. The price also makes me reluctant to replace it too often, a pity really...

As soon as the feather wand was unpacked, my cats wouldn’t leave my side. They’re absolutely crazy about it and even fight over who gets to play. One point deducted because the first feathers started falling off after just a few minutes.

Our young cat is absolutely crazy about this wand... unfortunately, one of them has already broken, but it lasted a whole year... so we immediately ordered a new one...

Exactly the right thing for playful cats... The absolute favourite of our Bengal cat. A nice, long and sturdy rod, great for extending the reach of the human, yet still light enough to drag the prey across all surfaces. The longer, firm feathers are perfect for tugging and plucking, and there are even a few left... Why only 4 stars? After about a week, the spiral extension slipped out of the holder, though my attempt at gluing it has held so far. After several chewing attacks from the cat, the entire feather tuft came loose from the plastic sleeve. And this is where gluing becomes tricky, as it only holds temporarily. Conclusion – the cat’s favourite toy needs to be replaced, and I’ve ordered it again...

My cat Susi (8 months old) is such a whirlwind; she breaks everything and steals anything she can get her mouth on. And when I read that even a dog couldn’t get the feathers off the rod, I thought, this might be perfect for my Susi. But, I was wrong—Susi manages to get both the short feathers and the long feathers off the rod! Oh well, but it’s still funny to watch her play. :)

Super cat toy... Our tomcat, who is usually lazy when it comes to playing, was unstoppable... For us, it was even a bit startling... We had to secretly hide the thing... But during the second play session, the front part came off... It could no longer be used as a fishing rod... But for our tomcat, it's a top toy that keeps him entertained on his own... and he even hides it somewhere.

A great cat wand that really motivates my tomcat to perform at his best! The only downside: the stick could be longer. You have to bend over or kneel down for the feather dancer to glide across the floor. A bit inconvenient during longer play sessions...

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.

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.

I only need to go to the drawer with the fishing gear, and the two tigers come running... Absolutely brilliant, except for the price.

My three cats absolutely love it. They literally jump into the air. Even the one who’s usually quite lazy when it comes to playing leaps a metre into the air to chase the feathers... Brilliant toy, but unfortunately not exactly cheap. That’s why only 4 instead of 5 stars.

My four furry friends are crazy about the feather dancer and come running straight away when I move it. Even my usually lazy Jerry gets really active and won’t let go of his prey. Unfortunately, some of the feathers came off after just a few days, so I’m deducting one star. Otherwise, it’s absolutely brilliant – it really brings out their hunting instinct! ;-)

Our cats LOVE this wand. They play with it all the time and everywhere. Small downside: it occasionally loses a few feathers :-D and our little troublemakers managed to separate the tip of the wand from the rod, but that clearly hasn’t affected the fun they’re having :-D

My cats still like this toy even after a few weeks; they keep enjoying playing with it. The workmanship could be better, though. The feathers came loose from the holder during the very first play session. I've now tied and glued them securely. Otherwise, I can recommend the wand for playing.

Both my 5 kittens (10 weeks old) and both parents LOVE this wand!!! And thankfully, this item is finally sturdier and more durable than what you usually come across. One star deducted because, unfortunately, even here, after a week, the twisted top part of the wand came loose from the rest of it. However, you can still push it back in and continue using the wand without it immediately falling apart again.

Tried out this fishing rod because my little rascal destroyed the Bird Rod after just one day. Unfortunately, he doesn’t chase this rod as enthusiastically as the Bird Rod. That’s why only 4 stars. But the quality is definitely better, which is what I’d expect for the price.

... this toy awakens the beast in the cat ;-) They've never gone so wild and hunted like this with any other wand toy before. Unfortunately, I had to repair it within the first 10 seconds, but since then, it's been giving the tomcats loads of hunting fun and me a bit of physical exercise.

... finally a toy that gets both of my tomcats playing at the same time. They go absolutely wild as soon as they even catch sight of the wand. Unfortunately, I had to repair it within the first 10 seconds. Took it out of the packaging, one of the cats (3.5 kg) grabbed it, and "poof" – the whole feather tuft ripped off. I fixed it with non-toxic adhesive and since then, their excitement knows no bounds. The bird sound seems very authentic and really triggers the cats' hunting instincts. I’ll definitely order the wand again despite the questionable quality – now I know how to fix it!

I have one of those cats that likes to play (noisily) by herself after lights out, but will only half-heartedly push a toy around if I happen to be in the same room. Little will tempt her to play with me, although she's affectionate in every other respect. Whether she's shy, cool or is just torturing me, I don't know. However, this toy always gets a reaction and I get at least 10 minutes worth of boisterous play with her each evening when I wave the feather in her face or swish the stick around. Whether it's irritation or pleasure that engages her I haven't quite worked out, but at least with the feather dancer I get to SEE her have some exercise, rather than just HEAR her antics at 3am...

I have to leave another review now. I’ve already mentioned before that my tomcat is absolutely crazy about the wand toy. Unfortunately, such a wand doesn’t last very long because my cat hasn’t quite grasped that he’s not a rodent :-))) and he chews exactly at the spot where the feather is attached to the wand, which sadly doesn’t hold up for long. Such a shame :-((( and at this price, the cat obviously doesn’t get a feather dancer all the time.
