Oddly, our cats didn't really do anythign with it when the skirt was attached. After removing the skirt and raising the device up on a stool, then they would play with it. Then we tied a couple pieces of ribbon to the end of it and now they go nuts over it. After it ran for a couple hours or so, it started squeaking badly which was driving us nuts. I took it apart and applied some wax (bicycle chain lube) to the contact areas that support the spinning mechanism and it's been silent ever since with a quiet whirring sound as the motor spins it. We will buy another if it breaks and the cats remain interested in it. Our older cat lost interest pretty quick, but our 6 month old cat demands that we turn it on daily for her. She will stand on it and cry at us until we turn it on. Then she plays with it for an hour or so and we shut it off when she gets distracted by something else.Read full review

My cats just weren't into this toy. My one cat played with it before I turned it on, then immediately lost interest. I wish I could post the video of them watching it for a few seconds and then walking away. The epitome of boredom. Of course, my cats are 9 years old so maybe younger cats would have a better time with it. For $10.00, the product seems well made though.

It occupies our Cat and sometimes she just loves to watch it. This is however the 4th one purchased in approximately 3 yrs. It's made in China & won't last a year. However, we continue to purchase b/c our Cat needs the stimulation in the winter months, when she can't go out and when it hasn't worked & we have had to wait or search to replace it, when it no longer functions, she truly misses it. Great concept, but the quality and value is not evident.

The Cat Meow is enjoyed mostly by my two young cats, but I do see my two older cats playing with it occasionally. They like to attack it, hold down the toy so it basically doesn't move, or go after the little tail that sticks out. The only problem is the battery life is short and the "C" batteries (2) have to be replaced frequently. . It does make some noise and the top plastic gets stuck or rolls under but for the money it is worth it. The movement is very entertaining to most cats so I would recommend this product.

we had 2 others before we got this one and it was different in a couple different ways. original one has alternate speed buttons on the top and a light to indicate it was on and the cord under the blanket was stronger. within a day or two the cat had the cord chewed off and we had to improvise with weedwacker cord and a mcdonalds coffee stirrer and gorilla glue. it seems to be working fine now and the other thing is it doesn't shut off it just keeps running till the battery dies.
