Hi everyone and thanks for watching! We’re back after an extended break in the upload department, during which we’ve been busy behind the scenes doing some much needed restructuring of the foundation that make up the episodes in order to make the production of the series a smoother experience going forward. Hope you enjoyed the episode and the new(ish) look! / Danzig, Zoltan and Soliman
ordering this baby tonight! love your channel-- the tone, theme & editing is so aesthetically pleasing and love how there's not a human in sight :) will be watching more of Danzig and Zoltan
A littel bird told me about you and sent a link to this video, and i must say this is one of the most wonderful cat toys review I have seen so far on TH-cam!
i´ve just bought one to my cat and i´m waiting it to arrive. After watching to your video i´m hopeful that Karin (my cat) will love it. She´s just like Zoltan, loves a intense playing time. Tank you for the nice content! you make really well produced and funny videos.
Thank you, Luis! Glad to hear you are enjoying the videos. Fingers crossed that Karin will like the toy. Zoltan still loves it! Feel free to give us a report of what Karin thought, once you've tried it :)
Just discovered this channel and realized you are Swedish too! Cats AND awesome esthetics, love it! I recently bought this toy for my cat and he has ignored it completely. I've tried everything I can think of but he only wants to play with the same string he's had since a kitten. Multiple times a day. He's 11... I am getting a liiiittle bored with that string lol.
Thank you! Have you tried detaching the tail and just holding it in your hand? Danzig really likes playing with it that way, although that does of course defeat the original purpose of the toy. Zoltan's all-time favourite toy from the kitten days is the remnant of a cheap toy mouse, which has lost its body and all that remains is a manky tuft of grey fur. I'm guessing it's kind of a comfort toy.
@@TheCatLodge Will try, thanks! He will probably like that, as he likes most wiggly things if I drag it in front of him. But only once or twice, then he wants the old string again. His second favorite is an old tiny pillow filled with catnip and something else smelly. It used to be white, now it's brown and chewed, super disgusting but he loves it...for a minute. Then the string. Again.
This thing does definitely not glide quietly! It scares my cats whenever I let it roam free. :S I wish there was a setting to make it move slower somehow, because the problem seems to be that it's moving too fast and too violently. The sound doesn't seem to bother them much, and they will play with it if it's on a carpet where its speed is impaired. Thing is, I bought this to give my chubby cat more exercise; she avoids getting up if she can and prefers to play lying down, so I thought this toy could get her to move around more. Shame, I may have to try something else.
Thank you for sharing your experience! I do think it moves quietly for being a motorised toy (compared to for example the Rolorat), but it is definitely not silent. I believe, as you say, that the violent movement is the biggest issue and a speed setting would have been great! The tail on its own is very popular though, even with Danzig. I actually use it as a focus point for the cats whenever I'm taking still photos of them. Have you tried a laser pointer for your chubby one? Or maybe a furry-thing-on-string type toy (like Window Teaser or Flying Bird), but placing it really high up, so she has to do a little jump to reach?

Thank you very much! We try our best.
beautifully produced video
the production quality on this toy review video is outstanding! also, kong now does make replacement tails for this toy, just fyi.
Thank you! Yes, we did an update video regarding the tails :)

Ha ha! Sounds like an amazing piece of string. Maybe it should get a review of its own.
First we need to design a fancy packaging. Then we can charge 30€ for it.
That looks amazing 😂 my crazy kitten will enjoy it
What a GREAT video! Me and my wife were amazed by the quality of your, I am just going to call it; Movie! Keep this up and thank you very much!
Thank you! That is lovely to hear 😺
Thank you so much!!
This looks so good I want to buy one. Question: Do I HAVE TO own a cat?
Well, I've checked the text on the box and there is nowhere that says that cat ownership is a requirement. So go ahead! /Zoltan
Your channel is so adorable your tabby took to the toy the one was like meh lol.
Cool, does it work on carpet?
It doesn’t work that well on carpets. It will spin just fine in one spot, but it won’t move around the room. At least not on my carpets.

My cats LOVE it, however as the video states. The moment the tail is broken, there is no way to replace it
Yeah, it's a great toy. They do now sell extra tails separately (although they didn't at the time of the video)
