Cats were never into it. It just sits on the floor no matter how we try to engage them. Update: it’s taken awhile but they are growing on this item. More playing with this as the weather doesn’t allow us the go for outside walks. Not unhappy with the purchase. Just needed to give them time to get used to it.
This cat toy is charged via USB under the zipper of the fish, to make the fish tail flop when you turn the button on. It comes with a little bag of cat nip inside. The toy is touch censored so when the button is turned on and the toy is moved, the tail starts to flop for a short amount of time and then auto shuts off with inactivity. I have two kittens, 3 months old, and bought this awesome cat toy fish for them. I think it's great and i think that I'd really like it if I were a cat. Not these two ungrateful, privileged, and spoiled little loves of mine. They will watch the tail flop for a moment and then go about their business unimpressed. I really hope they grow to appreciate this toy. Great idea in my opinion 🙃
I charged it up and promptly placed it on the floor; the tail thrashed so wildly that it moved along the floor on it's own. The cats were too terrified to actually pounce on it; it would be better if it flopped around more slowly. I placed it in a shoe box while it was on and finally our 5 month old kitten went after it like it was a live flounder. I don't know if she pounced on it too hard, but it subsequently died about ten minutes later. I removed the motor inside and I think the cats actually like it better because it's lighter and they can toss it around a good bit. I appreciate that it came with catnip, and I can refill it with fresh catnip later.
Okay, this looks like a fish and sort of flops like a fish but it is too busy, moving all the time and never stopping as promised when left alone. All three of my cats hate it.
My sweet baby, Sugar, loved the fish toys. She played with them a long time.
