my cat loves this more than he loves me
this very quickly became my cat's favourite toy, he spends hours batting it and comes running whenever I turn it on

Cats and kittens love it
It's a good toy both my adults and kittens love it

Cat loves it
Make sure you have batteries ready for when it arrives my cat loves this
Excellent
My Maine coon kitten (7months) adores this and asks for it to be switched on. She plays with it for ages and the batteries are still going strong after a week, as is the first butterfly (though I’m pleased there are 3 more in the box)

My Cat Loves It
From the very first moment I turned this on, my cat loved it.
When it's off and she wants to play again, she stands over it and won't move until the butterfly is fluttering past. Unfortunately, she's very good at catching it and so I'm already having to buy spare butterflies to replace the 'dead' ones.
Replacements - not actual toy
Disappointed

Doesn't work
Motor gets stuck after a few seconds, never worked properly

Really Good, but...
I found it difficult to rate because my cats love it! The issue issue is the butterflies don't last 10mins with my two. The first butterfly was shredded pretty quickly so I used another one and this lost it's bounce because they had squished the wire with their capture technique. This hasn't stopped me buying replacement butterflies but this will be saved as a weekly treat.

Temporary fun
Cat adores it, and he will happily play with it for ages, however, it seems to suddenly stop working after 4-5 weeks. I've had 2 and seen the same thing both times, a shame.

Kittens love it!
My 2 six month old kittens love this toy.
I was worried that the butterfly might be too fast for them but they love it.
They spend ages chasing the butterfly around, trapping it and letting it fly around again. Also comes with extra butterflies which is really useful.

They love it
One of my cats doesn’t it leave her butterfly alone. Always stays its side. We started a collection

No batteries needed!
My new cat who we believe is a bengal cross so needs tons of exercise and stimulation was initially frightened of this toy in operation and then found it boring as it whirled predictably past her nose. But with the batteries not in operation - you could use spent batteries to add weight - she plays with it endlessly as it’s movement is unpredictable like a real butterfly. It is very strong and the butterfly lasted for two weeks before she shredded it which I thought was good considering.
Keeps cats entertained
Easy to set up. Kept both cats entertained for hours . Good exercise for them. Butterflies are good quality and you get 4 in a box. Butterflies spin in circles very fast . Best money I've spent on a toy.
Kitten likes it but I difficult to replace butterfly
Kitten destroyed first butterfly. Manufacturer supplied extra butterflies in the box but I can't work out how to remove the first butterfly.

Broke days after it arrived
This toy broke after just a couple days of use - by 13 weeks old kittens!

Fussy cats
I have 2 Mainecoon males, and they love the blue butterfly, they love the noise and the speed but only love the blue one and refuse to play with the yellow one in the last 3 days they have killed 4 butterflies. They need to be more durable and have more blue butterflies as yellow can be hard for cats to see. Anything on the red spectacles makes it hard and this yellow definitely is red based so please bare this in mind when making cat toys and I hope you guys find an upgraded version in future.

Cat loves it
My cat is fascinated by this and will spend ages catching, batting or just staring at it. It comes with 4 butterfly attachments which is needed as it doesn’t take her long to destroy the butterflies. It does have a realistic fluttering action but some attachments need a bit of jiggling to sit in the right position to flutter rather than just spin. Downside is it makes a bit of an annoying noise.
|
Good for pouncing on
My cat loves this toy. There are times she'll ignore it completely but others where she plays with it for a good half hour at a time. Well worth the money.
|
Great until stopped working
My cats loved this toy! However pretty quickly it stopped working and became useless.

Very satisfied
It's a brilliant cat toy

Very sad
Nice toy, especially when it's switched on. The butterflies are quite delicate though. Once they've been bent, you can't straighten them again, and unfortunately that happens very quickly (after about 3 minutes), so the fun was over pretty fast.

it doesn’t move
For the first time it worked, but it doesn’t spin like in the video. I have to push the white circle part, it moves once and then stops…

säästöpakkaus: Funny Butterfly 1 kpl + vaihtoperhoset 4 kpl
The puppy was smitten
The speed was a bit wild at first with new batteries, but using slightly used batteries at the start helped with that. There's nothing you can do about the metal rod bending because of the way it's attached (it also causes some squeaking). Our butterfly is flying again after I carefully bent the metal rod in the middle to make an angle.

My cat is getting old and doesn't move around much anymore. But with this toy, she's found a new lease of life.

Super
I bought this for my kitten and I didn’t even need to put the batteries in, he just plays with it as it is. Luckily, there are 3 extra butterflies included! I’ll have to buy refills soon :)

My cat loves it
I've tried loads of different types of toys—either my pet ignores them completely or gets bored after five minutes. But this one, they absolutely love! Just a heads up, it takes three batteries and they don't last long; after a week they were already dead, and I didn't even use it that much. Still, seeing how much fun they have makes it worth it.

Great idea, but broke quickly
My cats love it! Unfortunately, the second device has already broken. The batteries keep leaking, which means the device stops working afterwards. It's really a shame, because otherwise my cats absolutely love it.

Great entertainment for kittens
For now, they're having loads of fun with this game. There are 4 butterflies in total inside, the first one lasted a week but they seem pretty sturdy—my furry little killers are to blame. Three AA batteries not included.

Damieh's butterfly
Very good toy, my cat loves it. At our place, it's always on, and when the battery runs out, Damika lets us know that her butterfly has stopped.

Funny Butterfly + 4 Ersatzschmetterlinge
Great while it lasts..
Basically, a beloved toy for all our playful cats... But I ordered it in November and now the motor has already given up. I also had to replace the butterflies quite often, mainly because the rods bend down very quickly and it's almost impossible to bend them back... plus some butterflies were just badly made and flew backwards...
Yeah... what a shame.
Fun factor: 9/10
Lifespan: 3/10
Battery consumption: 200/10

Zubehör: 4 Stück Ersatz-Schmetterlinge (OHNE Katzenspielzeug)
Really great and interesting for my two kitties
I never would have thought this toy could be so interesting. The butterfly still really encourages both my cats to play. They chase the butterfly for hours and never get bored. Definitely buy it. It keeps cats busy for ages because it also switches sides. It spins around as soon as they tap it with their paw. Highly recommended. No matter if they're young or old, the cats enjoy it for a long time.

Fun
My cat has quite a laid-back temperament, but he’s never gotten tired of this toy since he was a kitten. He tries to catch the butterfly while lying on his back—it’s really fun to watch! However, I recommend having some spare butterflies on hand.
