zooplus Basics Plush Ball Blaster for Cats

This is generally a nice product, great concept, interactive and simple. However, the sound it makes when it shoots a ball is a bit loud and kind of scared my more timid cat. He now runs away when he sees me take the shooter part out, but he is happy to play with the balls on their own. So if your cat is more confident, this is a great choice! But buy beware in case your kitty is more cautious.

My cats didn’t like it, because they’re not the type that chase things—they prefer objects that fly or "simulate flying", so they didn’t even pay any attention to it.

The idea is brilliant. However, the gun looks like it could break just by looking at it, the plastic is that thin. Depending on how you push them in, the balls either shoot out well or get stuck. At least I’ve got a stash of balls I can use on their own.

The balls can be completely taken apart, so it's better not to leave them unattended!

The gun was already a bit broken on day 1. It shoots softly, and at most 2 metres. My cats really like the balls themselves, so I just throw them by hand.

I don’t know if the problem is with the product or the user, but the ball often gets stuck in the gun when shooting. Still, it hasn’t really spoiled the fun – I just reload and keep going. It was so affordable that, in the end, the price-quality ratio is really good :) The balls fly far when you shoot, and at our place, the balls are played with daily, even without the gun! As a surprise, my other cat, who usually isn’t interested in toys, goes wild for these little balls! New favourite toys <3

So, the description says it’s also suitable for anxious cats, but the gun is too loud and unfortunately my cats are SCARED of it 🥺
