Customer Reviews
A popular toy with my boy cats
Like the other review says, the mice will sit idle, but only if you don't wiggle your fingers. I find I can drive my cats crazy by running one long Freddy Kreuger-like finger down their spine and then pop a surprise mouse over their head. Their eyes dilate and spin like pinwheels before they pounce.
It's a pretty cool toy, if for no other reason, that spares my hands the inevitable scratches and wounds from playing with our rough tom cats.
Interesting idea, but my cat doesn't seem to care for it...
While this toy seems like a pretty interesting idea, I have to say my cat at least, a nine year old tabby, didn't seem to care for it at all, meaning I just wasted money on trying to entertain him. =\
However that's not to say kittens wouldn't like this toy, because I can see merit in its design. It's a glove you wear to protect your hand, and the little mice and toys dangle from the fingers for the cat to attack. My cat did play with it, but only for about 30 seconds.
I think the main drawback is that the mice sit there, idle, until the cat reaches for them to pull them down. Otherwise, it's static, unless you yourself pull the mice down in front of them. Perhaps if this were a more hi-tech glove, there'd be raise and lower buttons in each of the fingers to give control, to create movement and entice the cat into playing, but that would be a much more expensive glove.
Good Toy
I have a picky cat and she actually likes this toy. The only thing I have to say is that those little toys hanging on them with them being on elastic when they fling from the cat letting them go watch out for them to hit you.
