Good little entertainer!
My cats all interact with this, even if they're feeling lazy they will still sit and watch it or just lay there hoping to catch it in their mouth (Or just let it repeatedly hit them in the face - amusing to watch). I like that it comes with spares (Although a shame you cannot buy them separately) My only criticism is that it would be better if when the butterfly gets stopped in its path or comes into contact with something, it went back the other way? This would make it a little less predictable!

Kittens love this toy!
My kittens are loving this toy so far. One of them spends ages engrossed in catching that butterfly. The other sits back and watches and likes to pounce from a distance. It's been funny watching them enjoy the toy. Really happy I got it and not a bad price, I've seen it's more expensive elsewhere online.

best toy yet
I like keeping Jessie my tuxedo cat busy since she is an indoor cat. This new Funny Butterfly is great for keeping her very busy trying to catch it. out of all her toys this is the best!

Brilliant purchase
One of the best purchases I've made for our cats, they just love it. It provides so much entertainment.

Fabulous fun
My little tabby kitten Ollie absolutely loves this toy. He was a bit unsure at first but soon got stuck in and can't stop playing with it. It is a shame you can't get replacement butterflies though. Thank you Zooplus for making my kitten very happy.

Brilliant Toy But Won't Last Long.
My two BSH's LOVE this toy. They take it in turns and queue up as soon as it starts up. The big problem is that it won't last long as you can't get spare butterflies which is a real waste. I have one left and the toy will then be useless.
Be warned. Once the butterfly covering starts to crack get rid of the butterfly. My female cat ate part of the wing covering as it cracked and came off causing a couple of days panic until it reappeared.
A remote control would be very useful too!

Good toy
Great cat toy, keeps cat interested only problem is there's no where to buy more butterfly's so once the cats destroyed them all the toy is useless.

Butterfly fun!
All 7 of my cats aged from 7 to 12 have played with and enjoyed this toy. Another good buy. I am glad I bought this item.
Cats love this toy ... BUT ..................
........ Zooplus don't offer the facility of being able to purchase spare butterflies, had they have done I would have given this toy a 5* rating as my cats love it, but the butterflies don't last long in this house with my 3 large cats. Also it would be useful if batteries were included.

Very happy just a bit disappointed with batteries not included
My 9 week old ragdoll loves this soooo much I've been able to do my cleaning with no helper!!

did not dissapoint
amazing toy, my cat loves this! keeps her entertained.

Best cat toy ever!
Both my British Shorthair boys love this toy and play with it for hours! Such a great idea and cheap enough to buy. The only downside is you can't buy spare butterfly's separately. It comes with spares but my boys play rough so I doubt they'll last long.
5*
Great little toy, well worth the buy. All four of my cats love it! The extra butterflies are an excellent idea.

Hours of fun
Such a simple concept inexpensive but my cats love chasing the butterfly it keeps them entertained
Love it love it!
I have two boys, one will play with anything and everything the other is hard to please. They both go mad for this toy and it withstands a lot of abuse from both of them including being bitten and dragged around the room. The only thing I can't work out is how to change the butterfly once it's officially dead so will be emailling zooplus to find this out!

A Hit!
This is a hit with my kitten. He loves it! Keeps him entertained for ages during his "funny five minutes" at night. Great little gadget. Comes with a couple of spare butterflies. He did have to get used to the nouse of it initially but now he baps it all the time. The actuall little butterfly part is quite robust too and not as flimsy as I thought it would be. Top product.
Best Toy Ever!
I bought one of these a few months ago. My Cats love this toy.
It is a shame it is not the remote control version or that spare butterflies cannot be purchased separately, but all 3 of my cats will play with this toy even when it is not turned on :)

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.

Excellent
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.
