1PC Snake Cat Toy for Cats, Smart Sensing Snake Rechargeable, Automatically Sense Obstacles and Escape, Realistic S-Shaped Moving Electro-Sensing Cat Snake Toy, Interactive Toys for Cats

This is one great toy for the kitties, and keeps us entertained as well! We are a childless house, I wouldn't use this as a child's toy because it's not made for that kind of play. It does keep our two nearly one year old kittens very occupied, though. They follow it around the house, occasionally dragging it by the tail when it goes to sleep. The motion sensor works great. It's very sturdy and runs about a day on kitten time before needing recharging. After the first day, I learned to put it on the charger at night to avoid play time at 2 am. The only downside is that my kitties have longer hair and it does pick up cat hair from the wood floor in the front wheels from under the furniture, which makes the directional sensor slow way down. This is resolved by cleaning the hair from the front wheels with a pair a tweezers about once a week. Now that we've had the snake for a couple months, I hide the snake and the kitties play hide and seek with it. Truly a great toy for them and endless laughs for us! Highly recommend.

It was a nice interesting toy at first. But after a few trials, my cats lost interest. There was something wrong or lacking about the design of this product that didn’t work well for my cats and my house. First, my cats were curious to see it wiggled, but after a short time, the toy’s movement slows down and my cats lost interest. Second, my house has spacious hardwood floors but would also have rugs. Upon reaching the rugs, the toy would get stuck and my cats would just stare at it until it runs out of charge and stops, which isn’t going to take very long. Third, the snake’s sensor does not effectively detect blockages. I would put my foot or boxes to block its movement ahead and hope it would evade my foot, but just kept on bumping. Suggestions for improvement: (1) design the sensor to avoid rugs and other types of small blockage, not just high walls (I don’t know what height of blockage the toy starts sensing and avoiding); (2) improve battery design to keep the toy running for longer periods of time; (3) improve mechanical and/or battery design to make the movements of the toy more agile to keep cats interested. Demonstrating how a puppy liked the toy in a video ad isn’t necessarily going to receive the same response with cats.

I must say, I would give this 5 stars except for the fact that I initially ordered 2 and one of them only worked for about 10 minutes before one of the wheels quit functioning. The other is still going strong, so I did order another, with the mindset that for $13.00, there' s bound to be a dud. My 2 cats LOVE them. Since they have auto shut off timers, I leave them turned on on my tile floor and when they're ready to play they just give it a paw and they're off. 🤣 Except for the dud, really a great toy for the money.

My 1.5 year cat is growing out of most toys. This would be great for a younger kitten, they play with anything, and this would be great to add to a kitten toy collection. One star less, like too many cat toys has a noisy motor and the hard plastic makes all kinds of additional noise. It needs a really flat floor, I have a small ridge where the tile changes and it gets stuck at that point. If you have an adult cat, it's likely after the curiosity wears off, not so much interest like most toys anyway.

Even though it's a cat toy, I bought it hoping to give my yorkie something to chase & be distracted by during the day. Unfortunately, he was not remotely interested in it or affected by it. However my almost 4 year old nephew found it on a visit and had a blast with it! He had a ton of fun being chased around by it and asked for one for his birthday. Of course, he walked off doing who knows what and came back with it in two pieces. I figured it was done for, but the segments of the snake had separated and were actually connected by plastic pieces that just needed to be reconnected and it was fixed in 10 seconds. Honestly, for the price, I didn't expect much, but the charge lasts a solid amount of time, it wiggles around a lot due to the object detection sensor and this thing can really get around on solid surfaces (fine on tile, but can't handle carpet). It's easy to charge & turn on and off. Only had it a month, but so far, so good. I think any playful cat would enjoy it and it's going on my list for future toddler gifts.

The product works as advertised but my cats couldn't care less about it. The product itself is well made and works as advertised so maybe my cats have bad taste in toys.

My cats enjoy it. It can back up so when it runs into or up onto something it can un-jam itself fairly well. It starts by moving around continuously for a while, and then, to conserve battery life, it will only move even batted by your cat. Battery life is decent. It's not perfect. It can get totally stuck on certain rugs. It can get flipped over by your cat and then it's useless until you flip it back. And your cats will eventually lose interest in it because that's what cats do. But for an electronic toy that's under 10 bucks it's pretty good.

First and foremost. it came with the snake and a charging cord and no directions. I had to figure it out myself. Once that was done. I charged it first because that is what all directions say. Then I set it out for my cat. she loves watching it and interacting with it, she has even learned how to turn it back on when it goes off. I love the motion senses it is programed for and how it backs up and changes directions. the other downside is that it picks up all the cat hair on teh floor better than my rumba and it would be wise to invest in a sharp pointed pair of tweezers to pull the hair out because on teh bottom side it says not to turn the wheels when off. But I still gave it a 5-star review because it's so interesting to watch and to watch the cats interact with it. But I do love watching the cat learn it's quirks so quickly..
