Insect Cat Toys

Cats didn't play with them until they flipped onto their bags as they were so noisy. Small plastic legs could be easily eaten. Battery life terrible. Binned.

Only one bug is working

One got stuck under my fridge but died soon after, so good thing it didnt go on for ages, but the ones that didnt get stuck only lasted for a few hours. Will have to change batteries, not sure what type it is? This is also great when I'm working from home and my cat wants to play, but it is very loud when it gets flipped upside down haha!

My toothless older Persian cat liked these but one arrived not working and now they are finished I don’t know which battery to get. They only work on hard surfaces.

My cat wasn't that interested. But the top red bit keeps falling off which basically leaves a vibrating black rectangle.

They either stopped working or 1 worked for a short time very small i would not leave my cats they are small the price was ok worth a try

Out of 3, 2 worked, ordered more as they keep my cat entertained. Don't work on carpet so I brought some lino and put toilet rolls and ping pong balls on it.

This isn't the kind of toy you leave on the floor for your cats to get on with...abd I think the manufacturer needs to step up here. I have found success by 1) limiting the time play which means that when they're brought out again, it's new and exciting 2) these toys needs obstacles...they go around in circles because they're designed to bump off things then change direction! Put down empty toilet/kitchen rolls, put small obstacles in the way etc. Most importantly, stay to supervise & interact.

All 3 stopped working within 24 hours

put the insect toy in the plastic ring with the balls, it will push the balls around and wont get lost under the sofa. Its a double win!

Only 1 working

Didn’t last a day

Rubbish, hardly moved and fell apart in minutes. Total waste of money and quite dangerous

Bought 3 1 didnt work the others didnt last a day cats had no intrest cheap waste of money

The 3 bug toys looked really nice they worked for a few minutes or just round in a circle i would not recomend them for a chase toy ok as a toy to bat around but nothing else

Basically they just go round and round in very small circles. My boys were not impressed

I've got 6 cats and they all love these, especially the beetles. Some of them are more fascinated, following them around and occasionally tentatively prodding, rather than pouncing.

I think this is a great toy if the battery would be included to last more than 10 mins. I have ordered 3 of the items and o2 of them did not work at all, the other 2 run for 10 mins max

I bought one of these bugs and when it arrived I put it out for my cats - they actually showed little interest in it. When switched off one of them started to play with it and within a couple of seconds it broke in half - exposing the workings and the cell batteries. Luckily I saw him do this and removed it from him - thankfully he did not swallow the batteries but this is obviously a danger not only to animals but children as well. think they should be taken off sale TBH

I ordered 2 of these and I wasn't pleased that the battery on one went within 5 minutes and the other didn't work at all. After buying batteries I let my girls play with them and they seemed to like them. The yellow bug goes very slowly and sort of round in circles. The purple one was faster and did just go round and round. They are very easy to flip over and I found myself flipping them back several times but my girls liked them and had fun playing with them which was the point of getting them so worth it for the price.

The kittens really like the bugs. The downside is that their sharp little teeth can bite off the beetles’ antennae. So I just broke them off myself.

The bugs are really funny for quite a while and definitely grab your attention. But unfortunately, the fascination is already gone by the next day. And by the way, the batteries run out really quickly and are an absolute pain to change.

My cats and the kids have just as much fun with the insects. We have a good laugh. My kitties aren't too keen on the vibrations.

...unfortunately, these toys didn’t interest any of our four. They look at them for about a minute and then walk away.
