National Geographic™ Owl Teaser Cat Toy Review


I just recently adopted two five month old kittens and was recommended a "teaser toy" in order to help them build trust with me. I bought this product for $8.99, I chose  a more pricy option as compared to similar products since I assumed it would be built with a more durable quality. With the brand "National Geographic" you'd expect a solid product, since the brand is so well known for their quality magazines.

National Geographic™ Owl Teaser Cat Toy

Within two hours my two kittens had already torn more than half the feathers out of it, causing a major choking hazard. I had to keep a close eye on them when they played with it. I considered returning it, but the store I bought it from (PetSmart) has a horrible return policy - so I was forced to try and make the best out of my purchase. I will now no longer purchase toys that can be dangerous when damaged from PetSmart.

A few short hours after that my kittens had torn the owl plushy portion right off the string and ripped it, thus making the toy absolutely useless. I had to throw it out immediately. For the price I paid I expected at least a few weeks of play, not a few hours. Absolutely disgusted with the quality - I don't think it should even be sold!

I can't recommend this product to anyone, for any reason. It has horrible durability, is unsuitable for playing and can be potentially dangerous if the animal swallows the feathers! If I could give it minus stars, I would. For some reason the "reviews" portion of the product on Petsmart.ca has been blocked... Not impressed whatsoever. National Geographic™ Owl Teaser Cat Toy
