BABORUI Interactive Cat Toy Ball – Automatic Interactive Cat Toys for Indoor Cats with 3 Tails, 2 Speeds Rechargeable Cat Enrichment Toys for Small/Medium/Large Cats to Keep Them Busy(Blue)

Awesome toy!
My cat drives me insane! He wants to play all the time! Constantly! If I am home he is dragging one of his many toys to me to play with him. So, I bought one of these little guys and HE LOVES IT. It took us a bit to realize that it has different settings. One setting would just play for 5 minutes and shut off. The other is more adaptable and it lasts a lot longer. Just make sure you pay attention to the settings. It does get caught and hung up in places because the ball is little bigger than a golf ball. My cat doesn’t mind because he will just pull it out and keep playing but if it was a wee bit bigger like a tennis ball it would get stuck in less places. If I was going to buy again I would have bought the 2 pack, for the discount and that way I can charge one while the other is in use.I am including a picture of my cat waiting for it to charge.

Overall ok, but…
Overall this is a toy on steroids when fully charged. Charging process is easy, just plug it into charger and that’s it. The order includes a variety of tails to attach, but they don’t always stay on which is a drawback. My rowdy kitten loves it nevertheless, my less rowdy kitten is scared of it. Its light weight, changes direction quickly and is pretty fast which makes for great play time. However, it really only works in large open spaces with no carpet or other barriers in the way because it constantly gets stuck in corners or behind items with the little engine roaring. That’s a bit annoying because the whole idea is to entertain the cat without human interference. Instead one has to constantly “unstuck” the toy taking away all the fun. That’s why I gave three stars instead of five. The ball is not cheap compared to other toys but overall it’s a good toy under the right circumstances.

This thing is a tank omg
I bought this for my cat Dale Earnhardt as a Christmas present. He absolutely LOVES it. It is an easy way to keep a cat occupied while remaining hands-free. This thing has impressive power behind it, especially on high-speed mode. It literally moved our Christmas tree when we weren’t looking. It almost always works itself out of any corners or spaces in which it may get stuck. But above all, I accidentally launched it into the toilet my husband was actively peeing into. He pulled it out of the toilet, we rinsed it off and disinfected it, and it continued to work perfectly thereafter. Not gonna lie, I’m impressed. I’d buy this again fo sho

Engaging toy buy recommend monitoring play
Initially I was afraid this toy was too intense for my cat and would be a return as they initially hissed at it on first play attempt. However after I put the toy away in a drawer I found my cat pawing at the drawer wanting to get the toy out.It’s now become a part of his daily play routine and a good tool for me to turn on for distracting him. That being said the toy does have some issues for our household that keep it from being a five star toy. I would advise owners to only use this toy while supervising their cat to assure the lure being used doesnt unravel or get swallowed by their cat. Watching play sessions is also important to assure you can monitor the location of the toy in case it gets stuck or you intended to keep it put away between play sessions.My cat primarily watches this toy and follows it around the house while it runs.1. The attached lure/tail that is default attached falls apart easily. This lure is comprised of fine string giving a fur like spiral effect and while this style of lure was engaging and worked well with the toy for movement it quickly started to fall apart leaving little pieces of string in clumps around my house. This is a safety concern as my cat could have easily swallowed the string.Once this part of the toy starts to unravel it becomes very unsafe in my opinion. I do have an adult cat that enjoys aggressive play so at first I thought it was negligence on my part not closely monitoring play with the toy but watching play sessions after the initial discovery of strings being detached I continued to find small pieces of string that seemed to be organic decay rather than my cat removing them from the toy.There is a feather style lure that comes with the package that we switched to and have not had any new issues with it coming apart for safety.2. This toy is very loud which can be a draw back or a benefit depending on your opinion. If the toy is on I know it’s on, I can hear it’s gears constantly working during a play session and while the noise isn’t pleasant and might intimidate a cat it does make it easy to know the play session timed out or locate the toy if it’s still running but stuck in an odd part of the house.3. The toy struggles on my carpet. Our apartment has a mix of carpet and vinyl flooring. The toy is primarily used for play sessions on a carpeted area and needs an aggressive setting to assure it will be able to roll freely. However if it makes its way onto a section of the vinyl floor it will then turn into a shooting star zooming around at a high speed that can make it difficult to catch.4. Play sessions are on the shorter side which could be a draw back. The toy doesn’t run very long in my opinion when you turn it on but honestly I think that is for the best so that it doesn’t accidentally travel too far and get stuck in an odd corner of the house. If it doesn’t bump into obstacles it can still travel a fair distance for interactive play. I always start play sessions in the living room and have watched the toy maneuver its way to the kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom of our home.5. The toy can and for us regularly gets itself stuck. This thing almost acts like a it has a consciousness and will roll itself into an odd space that is literally just big enough for it to get into and get stuck. On more than one occasion I’ve had to get down on hands and knees to free it from under a desk or reposition it from a tight corner. This is might not be an issue if your cat is more interactive with the toy and will get it unstuck themselves (my cat really just watches the toy and follows it around the house).
