I have two cats. One is a bit smarter, one is a bit, shall we say, not as smart. The not-as-smart cat was very confused by this toy, and it felt seriously like he was sitting there doubting why his humans were giving him an impromptu ribbon rhythmic gymnastics performance. But that I suppose that is not the fault of the toy. It is superbly made, with a very comfy handle and a lightness that does indeed make it great for a gymnastics performance for your not-so-smart cat. My smart cat loved it though, and would play with it for as long as her attention span allows her to.
So YMMV, depending on the IQ level of your cat.
