Great toy-worth the money I had recently read an article about aleviating boredom in cats and this product was mentioned so I decided to get one for my young male cat Toby. He played with it almost immediately & rarely walks by it without stopping to send the ball rolling. I have it laid out in a wavy line and it is fun to watch him stalk the ball as it passes the openings. The design is unique as the end pieces are slightly elavated so the ball hits the end & is sent back the other way.
sturdy & fun K. Smith’s review is spot on. This is a reconfigurable tube with holes. Inside the tube is a ball. The cat puts its paw through a hole and pushes the ball, which goes rolling up and down or around the track. The ball makes a soft noise as it rolls. Some other cat balls can be fit inside. The best we’ve found so far is plastic balls with jingle bells inside; these are too fragile normally (they get stepped on and break) but very appealing inside this tube. We’ve also left cat treats, toy mice, and ribbons inside.The tube is very sturdy, up to the riggors of having a cat pick it up and chew on it, etc. Our cats are more likely to play with it if you change the configuration often. Also, this was not obviously a toy to them until we trained them. That is, for the first week we left it in front of the TV, and my daughter or I would play with the ball as we wanted the cat to do. We also pulled their string through it, and sprinkled catnip inside. The cats would watch and chase the string. After a week they got the idea and would play sometimes on their own — just one push to begin with. It is best appreciated late at night when we are not there to observe the cat. My daughter has it in her room, now, as an attractive lure and entertainment for the cat — she hears the ball rolling at night sometimes, and so knows the cat is playing. This works very well as a child/cat toy, because the cat likes when she changes or moves it.—9-months later: our younger cat died of cancer, and we since adopted a kitten. The kitten figured out how to play with this toy after being shown twice (i.e., we pushed the ball twice — that’s it!) Our new kitten adores this toy, and will sometimes play with it for 20 minutes straight. The older cat acts as a foster mom to kitten, and uses all of her play-energy on the kitten, so I can’t comment on its extended appeal to an older cat. The sturdy construction continues to impress me. The ball never pops out & gets lost.
One cat is facinated, one can’t be bothered I’d classify this as one of those “when it works, it really, really works” things.Our lazier cat couldn’t be less motivated by the catit play circuit, but our more active cat – holy cow does he love it! Even months later, all you have to do is rearrange the track, then start the ball rolling. He’ll come running and wear himself out with it. The funniest is when he bats the ball, then leaps high in the air – like a victory celebration.It’s not irresistable, as Cat #1 has proven, but for the right cat, is a very good cat toy. On par with a laser for entertainment value.
