Really Good, but...
I found it difficult to rate because my cats love it! The issue issue is the butterflies don't last 10mins with my two. The first butterfly was shredded pretty quickly so I used another one and this lost it's bounce because they had squished the wire with their capture technique. This hasn't stopped me buying replacement butterflies but this will be saved as a weekly treat.

Temporary fun
Cat adores it, and he will happily play with it for ages, however, it seems to suddenly stop working after 4-5 weeks. I've had 2 and seen the same thing both times, a shame.

Kittens love it!
My 2 six month old kittens love this toy.
I was worried that the butterfly might be too fast for them but they love it.
They spend ages chasing the butterfly around, trapping it and letting it fly around again. Also comes with extra butterflies which is really useful.

They love it
One of my cats doesn’t it leave her butterfly alone. Always stays its side. We started a collection

No batteries needed!
My new cat who we believe is a bengal cross so needs tons of exercise and stimulation was initially frightened of this toy in operation and then found it boring as it whirled predictably past her nose. But with the batteries not in operation - you could use spent batteries to add weight - she plays with it endlessly as it’s movement is unpredictable like a real butterfly. It is very strong and the butterfly lasted for two weeks before she shredded it which I thought was good considering.

Keeps cats entertained
Easy to set up. Kept both cats entertained for hours . Good exercise for them. Butterflies are good quality and you get 4 in a box. Butterflies spin in circles very fast . Best money I've spent on a toy.

Kitten likes it but I difficult to replace butterfly
Kitten destroyed first butterfly. Manufacturer supplied extra butterflies in the box but I can't work out how to remove the first butterfly.

Fussy cats
I have 2 Mainecoon males, and they love the blue butterfly, they love the noise and the speed but only love the blue one and refuse to play with the yellow one in the last 3 days they have killed 4 butterflies. They need to be more durable and have more blue butterflies as yellow can be hard for cats to see. Anything on the red spectacles makes it hard and this yellow definitely is red based so please bare this in mind when making cat toys and I hope you guys find an upgraded version in future.

Cat loves it
My cat is fascinated by this and will spend ages catching, batting or just staring at it. It comes with 4 butterfly attachments which is needed as it doesn’t take her long to destroy the butterflies. It does have a realistic fluttering action but some attachments need a bit of jiggling to sit in the right position to flutter rather than just spin. Downside is it makes a bit of an annoying noise.

Good for pouncing on
My cat loves this toy. There are times she'll ignore it completely but others where she plays with it for a good half hour at a time. Well worth the money.

Cats go bonkers for the toy
Had this toy a few yrs . Cats love it but today my kitten learnt how to pull the button off the toy. I put it back on within minutes he had again removed it and trying to eat it. This could have been a very expensive outcome. My kittens pedigree if he needed an operation for this it would have been very costly. Please either supervise your cats with this toy or don't let them have one with the button

Moves really fast cat not interested
This moves way too fast. I thought it might be like those solar powered ones for the garden which all cats like to play with but it spins at such a speed she just looks bemused by it and won’t even entertain it switched off. I’ll probably be giving it to a friend whose cats might enjoy it more.

Rather loud and fast moving
This was loud and the mechanism was so fast it deterred the cats. I used the dangling part on a stick and they loved it!

Doesn’t move?
I have purchased this item. Placed batteries in it. It doesn’t do anything. Does move neither on it own on when it’s being touched. My cat has no interest in this. A bit of movement would encourage the play.

Scared at first then loved it
So my 13 week kitten enjoyed playing with it without the butterfly moving (note that batteries aren't included and they are AA ones). Then when we switched it on he was scared at first but after he saw us playing with it he started playing with it bit by bit till he was full on batting and pouncing. You get a few extra butterflies. So I would definitely recommend if your cat has a very strong hunting instinct as that overcomes the fear of the machine.

Unsafe
My kittens love it however one of them got his nail trapped in the butterfly and was screaming out of pain. It's a great toy but do not leave it unattended and watch for the eyes too as
