Purrfect Crunchy Feather Cat Toy

We received a PURRfect Crunchy Feather wand when we adopted our first Bengal and let me tell you, above any other cat toy this is the one they go CRAZY for! Of course, when we adopted our second we had to get a second wand - always a hit in our household. The cats are so attracted to the crunchy strings and the feathers emulate a bird, makes for some great play time. The wand is very well made and the feathers stay in tact unlike other mass-manufactured toys. That said, if your kitties (like ours) love to tug and drag the wand away, the rubber-like string may eventually snap. Not a major issue as they do provide an additional 'feather head' and the string held up for many months before finally giving way. Overall A+++. These are a staple for our energetic Bengals!!!!

I have never met a cat who didn't love this thing. It has been used by 7 of my own cats throughout the years. I even sent one to a youtuber once and got to see how much his cat also loved the thing. Months later, they said it was still her favorite toy. Just whip it around a lot and let your cats get their excercise. If you have a fat cat, this will get him moving. And I do mean, whip it around. I hate watching people just flop a cat toy around a little. Your cat craves the excitement of the hunt!

These are expensive but so loved. One star off because my kitten easily ate through the plastic-covered wire. But I think I found a solution! *That one star off is also b/c I think the wire could get easily wrapped around a cat’s neck, although I think my solution might help with this. I always put the PURRfect Crunchy Feather Cat Toy away when the felines are unattended, just to be safe.I’m on Number 2 of this Feather Cat Toy since the first one was destroyed due to my cat gnawing through the wire of the first one.My solution to this:I bought ++ Install Bay Split Loom Tube 3/8 Inch100 Foot Roll - SLT38 ++ here on Amazon and covered the black plastic-covered wire with it from the top plastic part of the feather-doodad on the bottom all the way to where the black wire meets the curved clear plastic tubing at the top.I then duct-taped both ends of the Loom Tube to the wand, as well as the middle of the tubing b/c the Tubing separates / will slide off with play.== Please make sure to remove any stringy parts left hanging on the duct tape pieces you use. I’ve already found human hair and thread in my kitten’s poop, and I’m sure he’d love duct tape string too.== The cats do not find the pink duct tape offensive, probably b/c they’re colorblind (it was all I had).== This idea will not win me a MacArthur Genius Grant, but I’m still pretty excited to have found a solution.== I also use the Loom Tube mentioned above on the two connecting wires on the ++ Cat Mate Pet Fountain, 70 fl. oz. Water Capacity ++ also purchased from Amazon and it works great.

This arrived very poorly packaged and broken in half. I was not impressed with what I saw even if it had been in one piece (not worth $15.00), and so am returning for refund.

Item delivered on time however quality is not up to standards. Cat managed to break it within a week as the wire is made if thin plastic. I have bought similar wands to this of much better quality for much cheaper

My Bengal Cat Gus had it apart in less then a week,...but he LOVE THE TOY!!!! Its not that we let him have it all the time- it was hidden when we were not around to play with him but because everything is glued/tied it comes apart easier, it just didn't hold up. Its still his favorite toy. I ever never seen him enjoy a toy that much. I would have rated it at a two just because of its design if he didn't love it so much.

When we first got this toy on a whim, thought it would get chased at once and go into the collection of cat wand toys that the cats don't care about.BOY WERE WE WRONG.This is their favorite toy. They never stop playing with it. They will carry it around in their mouth, dragging the string and wand. There have been times where we have tried to play with them with a different toy. They look at the other toy quizzically, and walk away, to bring us this toy, as if to say, "I get what you're trying to do but you're doing it all wrong - THIS, is a toy, I don't know why you're waving that around!"In consideration of how much they use this toy it holds up pretty well. It comes with two attachments - one with krinkles and one with just feathers. There are enough feathers that, even in heavy use, you'll mostly never be without feathers. We have had the feather assembly come off the string before - but then it just turned into a stationary bird toy for them. If you run out of feathers, or if the feathers separate from the string, or if your cat just gets bored of it, the second set of feathers which do not have krinkles is a VERY nice addition.Yes, it is kind of expensive for a cat toy. BUT - it's got pretty good durability, and if your cats love it as much as ours do, it's a worthwhile investment.

The media could not be loaded. The line is not high quality but I can replace that. We have to keep the toy in the closet and keep it shut or he will tear it up. When he cries by the closet door a few times a day we will grab the toy and play with him. Feathers clumped up with the streamers that make that noise just drive him nuts. In the video he is trying to get my kid to go over by the curtain where he likes to play with it. I do spend a bit of time fixing this but my cat is worth it.
