I knew my cat would love this, because she loves to hold on to something and kick with her hind feet. She's the only one of my three that does this. From the moment she saw the toy she grabbed it and started kicking. Also loves the furry mouse at the end and the strings. Of course, the catnip smell got her interested. I would recommend this only if you know your cat is already a kicker. Don't know if others would be interested.
