FLING-AMA-STRING Automatic cat toy: Interactive Cat Toy for Bored Indoor Cats with motorized String Action, Ideal Hanging Door Toy for cats

Five stars simply aren't enough for the Fling-a-ma-String! I've owned countless cat toys over the years, but nothing has captivated my two kitties, Milo and Lucy, quite like this. It's a non-stop, hilarious frenzy of feline fun!Milo, my more solitary hunter, loves to stalk and pounce on the string when it's moving slowly. He gets this intense, focused look in his eyes, like he's channeling his inner jungle cat. Lucy, on the other hand, is a social butterfly, and she ADORES playing with Milo when I start the toy. They chase the string together, batting at it with their paws, and even take turns trying to catch it mid-air. It's the cutest thing to watch! They've developed this whole elaborate game around it, and it keeps them entertained for hours.What's truly fantastic about this toy is its versatility. It satisfies both their individual play styles—hunting—and their need for interactive play. Whether they're playing together or independently, the Fling-a-ma-String keeps them engaged and active, which is wonderful for their physical and mental stimulation.And let's talk about Moody Pet! I was absolutely blown away by their customer service. After a few months of intense play (and believe me, Milo and Lucy are intense!), the elastic strap started to show some wear. I emailed Moody Pet, and they sent me replacement parts completely FREE of charge! I mean, who does that anymore? It's clear they stand behind their product, and that kind of generosity and customer service is incredibly rare.If you have cats, you NEED this toy. It's a guaranteed hit, and the fact that Moody Pet offers free replacement parts makes it an even better investment. My kitties, Milo and Lucy, give it a resounding paws-up, and I do too!Videos to follow! Thanks, Moody Pet.

A kitty of mine, that has since passed away loved this toy for several years, and she loved ALL parts of it, as she not only chewed up the rotating elastic with the string attached, but also the black elastic strap that goes around the door to secure the entire toy. After she was gone, I sadly put the toy away, but I now have two new furry bosses, and one really likes this toy. The manufacturer promptly replaced the rotating elastic a few years ago, and is sending me a new door holder elastic now. When they say lifetime guarantee, they mean it! Talk about durability! Sadie played with this toy from 11-2017 until she passed 10-2021. I am a small animal vet and have told several of my kitty parents about this toy, as part of enrichment for their little furry friends. If your cat loves strings, this toy is for them!

My cat LOOOOOOOOVES this toy. She always begs us to turn it on BUT it broke within 6 months. The spindle kept coming out. We try to tape it into place but it didn’t work. Considering buying another one just because she loves it so much but I’m worried it’ll break again.

The media could not be loaded. There are several pros as well as cons to this toy. It's a great idea, no other like it. I bought high mah rechargeable batteries which help a lot. Now...I've read a lot of reviews on here. Some I agree, some are strange(as usual). After a day, the string kept getting stuck at the top of the roller. My cat would meow when it happened which told me she was mad. So I'd untangle it....and untangle it.....and unangle it. Everything in the rollers is clean. It KEPT happening because from being stuck, the string formed a circlular pattern in the shape of the roller. It it is a little rough on the door, but nothing damaging. For $30 though, I'd have thought for all the rave, a more durable string, as well as safer string could be used. Also, some sort of way to replace the string. A long string, short string etc... Is it worth $30? Not really. $20, yes. Cat loves it though, but definitely need to keep a frequent eye when she is playing with it. For string tangles, and possible safety risks like the string coming off, or being eaten. The concept is FANTASTIC and it's quieter than most electric toys I've tried. Some are REDICULOUSLY loud. Hence my 3 star review. It's almost a 4, except for the price and the safety concerns. For the price, there shouldn't be the safety concerns that are involved with the toy. Do I recommend it? Yes. But I would NOT leave it on while your out of the house. If you do, don't get on here and write reviews that your cat was injured. You left your cat unsupervised and it CLEARLY SAYS,USE WITH SUPERVISION. Therefore, it's also your fault, in part of the safety concerns of the toy.Now, I had to get it replaced once because the motor blew. Got replacement, and 2 weeks later...boom. Stopped working again motor shot. What's up with this??? Twice?? This manufacturer needs to do something about the motors. I'm not the only one.

Excellent product. It’s our third one in 8 years (gets daily use). Cats love it. They paw at it for me to turn it on. Has two speeds for energetic cats and low-key cats. Hardly any upkeep; occasionally change batteries and clean fur from around pulley ring at the bottom.

This is a cute toy and most of my 7 cats love it. Unfortunately they broke the elastic band that holds it onto a door but they like playing with it on the floor anyway. I wish this was rechargeable rather than using batteries.

My lil cat son loved it for the first few days though the battery life isn't the longest which is fine since I have rechargeable batteries. But Unfortunately the motor or something went wrong inside of the machine and it stops after 4 seconds of running. I've checked for fur that might be stuck or if the batteries just died but it seems somethings wrong with the item itself. this is really unfortunate because other than that the product is amazing for cats. would be 5 stars but died after just a week of use.
