After 3 days they are both still fascinated with it. I load it up with a few toys and some treats and they play with it, scuffle over it, fall asleep on it... Only 4 stars b/c I had to glue the snaps shut.

I bought these for my mum’s cats because they don’t get enough stimulation, and I tried it out with my own cats first. Both my mum’s cats and mine absolutely love it, so I had to get one for each. You can play with the mat in loads of different ways, plus they really like the feel of the material and often lie down on it.

After trying out loads of different games (including logic, activity, and automatic ones) and being disappointed, I was still a bit hesitant to buy this mat, even on sale, but I absolutely don’t regret it. Whether playing, getting treats, or just lounging around on it, my cat has really grown to love it. The material deserves extra points too: cat hair comes off with just a swipe of the hand.

I really like the mat, and my tomcat jumped on it straight away. Some reviews mention that the buttons don’t stay closed when things get a bit wild, but I actually think that’s a good thing. My cat had the brilliant idea to get himself tangled up in the holes and started to panic. Luckily, the buttons popped open immediately, and he was able to free himself while running. I think it would be irresponsible if the buttons had stayed closed. Unfortunately, the mat does slide around quite a lot when playing.

I have a 10-month-old kitty who absolutely loves this mat. He sleeps on it, plays on it, and even brings his "prey" inside. There are two downsides to the product that could be improved: 1) The snap buttons that hold the two halves together don’t stay closed properly, and every time the cat rolls around inside the mat, they pop open, so you lose the dome effect. 2) There’s not enough grip on the underside, so whenever the cat dives in or out, the mat slides across the room.

My cat loves it. Plays with it all the time. The only downside is that the press studs come undone really quickly, so I keep ending up with two separate parts and my cat can't play with it then.
