Pet Owners Say Their Senior Cats Are ‘Obsessed’ With This $4 Chase Toy That Holds Their ‘Attention Right From the Beginning’

As a cat owner, few things are more entertaining than watching your feline friends play with kitty toys. And not only is it free amusement for you, but playtime is also really beneficial to your cats’ fitness and overall health. We love a win-win, right?

But what if your furry friends generally aren’t interested in toys and would rather lounge in a puddle of sunlight than zoom across the room? Well, we’ve found a game-changing toss-and-chase toy that even the laziest of cats can’t resist — and it’s just $4.

The Smartykat Toss-a-Fox Feather Cat Toy features a cute plush fox head with feathers pluming out beneath it — it looks sort of like a badminton birdie. The feather design allows the toy to be more aerodynamic, simulating prey-like movement when it’s tossed through the air. This, in combination with the multi-textured mix of materials, will stimulate your cat’s hunting instincts, enticing them to play with the toy.

Kitty owners with younger feline friends are likely sold on the interactive toy, but if you’ve got senior cats who are reluctant to play, maybe you feel like this isn’t for them. However, other senior kitty parents went out on a limb by purchasing the toy, and they couldn’t believe how much their older cats loved the toss-and-chase plushie.

“My 10-year-old cat loves this thing — it has become his favorite toy!” one happy pet parent wrote in an Amazon review. Another person shared, “This is the only toy my 11-year-old cat plays with. And even if she didn’t, it’s really cute to look at,” they funnily added.

“Makes my 14-year-old cat play like a kitten again!” another shopper wrote. “He even started to bat at the toys before I took them out of the package.”

Tons of people shared how “obsessed” their cats are with the plushie — one person gushed, “My cats are absolutely OBSESSED with this toy. This is the third one I’ve had to buy because it’s their absolute favorite. They would fetch this toy for hours if I would keep throwing it.”

Another shopper wrote the toy “had our cat’s attention right from the beginning.” They explained, “Our cat is 2 years old and beginning to not be interested in her solitary toys. This had her from the get-go! She loves it. Tosses it up in the air and chases it around the floor like she’s really caught some great thing!”

Regardless of your kitty cat’s age, you clearly need to sacrifice $4 on their behalf to add this fan-favorite toy to their collection.
