The package arrived 30 minutes ago, and this toy has been unpacked for 15 minutes. Batteries in, and you hear nothing!!! A plush part spins around, and my 10.5-year-old Murphy is thrilled. Someone tell me again that cats aren’t clever... He sticks two paws into the thing and tries to pull out the plush pom-pom. Luckily, it’s held up (for now). Two of my four cats are still crazy about it, while the others are busy inspecting and "unpacking" the box first.

My cat is only briefly interested in the toy; the material is too lightweight. However, it's a nice, albeit short, distraction.

Super toy! It's been a long time since we've found something that even gets our second (somewhat sluggish) tomcat to play. He can keep himself entertained with it for ages. Thanks to the variety in movement and changes in direction, it closely mimics a natural object, which is probably why it's genuinely interesting for playing/hunting! Absolutely brilliant :))

After my toy didn’t work, I immediately received a replacement without any issues. The second toy works perfectly and keeps the cats entertained for a long time. By changing the direction, the cats don’t get bored so quickly. Their hunting instinct is definitely triggered.

Very good activity toy! Our cats (10 years old) usually ignore almost every toy—except mice! But this toy was immediately claimed, and even after 2 days, it’s still not boring. Probably accepted because it’s super quiet. The automatic shut-off after 15 minutes is great too!

My three cats are having loads of fun with the new toy! I think it's brilliant that it has an automatic shut-off feature (it switches off automatically after 15 minutes). Definitely recommend buying it!

The cats really like the toy. The feather tuft inside doesn’t move evenly but rather alternates, stops briefly, and changes direction, which makes their hunting instinct even stronger. The openings are large enough, even for Maine Coons. It switches off automatically after a while. There’s a switch on the side to turn it on.

The first delivery: the toy didn’t work. But I received a replacement delivery, and the toy has been a hit ever since :-) My Maine Coon is absolutely thrilled, and the toy meets his needs perfectly :-) Brilliantly designed :-)

Both my cats are absolutely thrilled with the toy. Even my old, usually lazy Persian cat is playing again now. The many openings for their paws are particularly well-designed, as is the fact that the cats never know which opening the feather will pop out of next. The only downside is that there are no replacement feathers available in case the cats manage to grab hold of the feather. Otherwise, it's definitely worth buying!

Both kids and adults think this thing is brilliant. It's a shame there's nothing like this with mice, etc. :) One point deducted because it doesn't look very high-quality.

The first delivery unfortunately had to be returned because the toy didn’t work. The replacement toy also wasn’t functional. I’ve now contacted the company Trixie.

Both my 16-week-old Maine Coon kitten and my nearly 10-year-"young" Persian have been playing with it all day. The toy is completely silent, and I really like that it switches off automatically. I turn it on when I have to go to work, and it keeps the little ones entertained for a while! A clear recommendation to buy!!!

My 16-week-old tomcats are absolutely crazy about it!

Explorer. My two sat in front of it, and I had to start the thing at least four times because, unfortunately, it switches off by itself after 15 minutes. The body is made of hard plastic without sharp edges and can even hold a cat sitting on it. The holes are big enough for paws, and the feather stays intact, even when the tomcat drags the whole thing behind him. Rarely have I seen such a sturdy toy for cats that brings fun and variety. Brilliant! Tip: Put loose feathers inside for a successful hunt ;)

Tried the thing out today, loaded it up with treats, and all 6 cats were instantly interested. Something's moving – they can paw at it, and there's something inside. 4 out of 6 cats were completely occupied with it for over half an hour – very good. Also great that it's almost silent. It could, however, be a bit heavier, because once kitty grabs the feather with their mouth and pulls, that's the end of its stability ;-) Then the thing gets dragged away. Still: Brilliant!

Well, it's certainly a matter of taste, but I think the idea is great – the fact that it's battery-operated and has feathers attached, plus you can put treats inside, which boosts the cats' motivation. I also don't find it noisy. One of my tomcats played with it brilliantly, while the girls watched on with interest from a distance – though they're generally timid. Another tomcat was outside at the time, but I'm sure he'll love it because he's greedy and will get treats from it.
