Great entertainment for cats — and dogs,
This simple little thing drives my cat crazy! She loves it. Our dog does, too, but I’m scared he’ll tear it up if I try to play with him with it. A gentle dip with the stick and pull up, and this thing flaps, and makes a flapping sound. It’s very easy to make it soar horizontally, fly in a circle, glide up vertically and dive. It moves and sounds like a real bird. It’s also almost hypnotic to fly it around. Might even appeal to non-pet owners as a tool for relaxation
I think it’s the most fun of any toy she has. As for critics who say it would be easy to build one, I disagree.
The down side is, it’s very fragile. I have to be careful to relax the string and take it gently from Anya when she catches it. However, despite many catches and a broken feather, it still works!

|Cat goes crazy — but lock it up when not playing with it!,
I’m writing a review because I bought this a month ago, and our cat has gone absolutely bonkers for it. So bonkers, in fact, that he broke the string twice, and one day we came home and the birdie was there, the stick was there with about 3 inches of string left, and all the rest of the string was missing. It’s been two weeks since that and he’s still fine so I’m not sure what he did with it but it appears that he didn’t eat it, at least.
We have had plenty of wand toys for our cat and I’ve never seen him go as crazy for a toy as he did for this one. The birdie spirals in the air sort of like a fishing lure in the water, and he just has a ball. For the price it doesn’t bother me too much that it only lasted a month (and now he’s even removed all the feathers!) so I am going to order another, but this time we will definitely only let him play with it when supervised, and won’t leave it out when we leave the house.
Overall, probably the best toy he’s ever had. In fact he still carries around the little red plastic part where the feathers used to attach, still attached to the 3 inches of string and whole wand that is left. It’s pretty funny, and pathetic.

|This crazy little toy is the BEST EVER!,
What a great cat toy. This is the one cat toy that is guaranteed to actually get played with. How many toys have you bought over they years that just sit around and never get even a swat? Well, that won’t happen with Da-Bird! I have given tons of these to friends for their cats, and have only known one very elderly lady kitty to not be interested in it. But even the fattest, laziest cats I’ve known will motivate for this toy. You will get some amazing leaps out of your cats. The sound the feathers make when they go through the air, as well as how the birdie “flutters” apparently just can’t be resisted. And yes, there are many other feather toys on the market at the stores, but none of those other brands have ever gotten my cats to do a 5 foot twisting leap into the air. My cats will go for this until they are panting. Some of them like to try to walk with it in their mouths to another room to spend more time with their “Catch.” We use it every day for 20-30 minutes. The mouse attachment is also a big hit at our house. It is apparently made from deer fur, and my cats also get glazed eyes when they play with it. They even growl sometimes as they carry it around. I try to “walk” the mouse attachment along the floor, and around corners like a real mouse would run, but they jump for it too when I make it fly. As others have noted, you have to keep this toy put up very securely when you are not playing with it with the cats or they will eat it, chew on it, whatever. No one wants their kitty to eat string. Bad news. I have a genius cat that can open closed doors so I actually use a 3 foot poster tube to keep them in after we are done playing and i keep that locked away in a closet. They can be very clever when they set their minds to a task. I also find that I get better jumps from the kitties when I use it one-on-one with them in a room with the other cats shut out. That way they can concentrate on their hunting without distractions and don’t have to worry that they are going to land on the other cats when they leap. So we do a group hunt for a while and then take individual turns. I prefer the single pole version. I guess the split pole is good for storing it later, but I like the single pole best. Get this toy for your little fuzzy babies. They will thank you for it. And yes, you will need feather refills at some point. Some cats get pretty rough with it and try to really “kill” the bird, others just enjoy the chase.
