I've used these fishing rods for years and they were always the toy that every cat I knew found interesting. I often gave them as gifts to new cat owners because I was so enthusiastic about them. Now, with a new kitten, I bought 3 new rods, but unfortunately the swivel has been replaced with a plastic thing that makes the string twist together after just a few swings through the air, and it takes about a minute to untangle it. Had to buy new swivels at the fishing shop.

Unfortunately, the springs twist around themselves, which causes the rope to spin and constantly get tangled. Sadly, I can't recommend it at all.

Unfortunately, the quality has really gone downhill. There are fewer large feathers attached, and the string gets so twisted that the cat wand is only usable again after painstaking untangling. Thank goodness I still have an old one where that doesn’t happen and I can always swap out the attachments. It would be great if the attachments were available separately or in multipacks (without the wand), for the sake of sustainability.

Used to be the favourite toy... now I’m constantly having to untangle and straighten it... it’s annoying... such a shame...
