A single bob of Da Bird is completely irresistible to cats. It is recommended by veterinarians as a great way for your cat to exercise and in play therapy for behaviour issues.

Many of our customers highly recommend it. Its the most fun you'll ever have with your feline friends!
If you have not witnessed first hand a cat's reaction to Da Bird then you have no idea what you are in for! It's the best cat toy Yet!!

*Realistic feather toy activates your cat's hunting instinct
*Cats go crazy over the amazing real flight-like motion
*Even lazy and fat cats cannot resist it
*You need to hide it away while not in use!!

TIP- The 2 part rod is handy for storing the Da Birdy when not in play. (However, it is best to keep the 2 part rod as a whole rod for storage if possible as the connector can weeken over time with alot of separating for storage.)

PLAY THERAPY - How to use the Da Bird to help with behaviour issues.
You've probably seen your cat perched in the window watching real birds. With the Da Bird Cat toy, let the cat follow a pattern of flight around the room long enough to get completely involved in it: with rapt attention, tensing muscles, and a little twitch of the tail. Talk to the cat in a light praising tone.
At some point, swoop the toy close enough for the cat to make a grab. When he catches you, play dead, but keep gentle tension on the string. When the cat relaxes, you make your escape! Fly around a bit, then allow yourself to be caught again.
This whole routine can be repeated, of course, ad infinitum, until the cat is finished. But watch out for the "second wind!" This routine should truly tire the cat out.
The kitty kopter can be used to satisfy the cats catch instinct and some feathers for the kill chew instinct.
The final step is a high protein snack. This completes the natural cycle of hunt-catch-kill-eat.
Once the session is over, put away the special play therapy toy. It only comes out for these special sessions.
Regular daily play therapy work will make your cat happier and more confident, and less likely to manifest stress in unpleasant and unwanted ways.

Safety - As with all fishing rod toys, please ensure supervised play at all times. Some cats will eat the string when unsupervised. As this toy is so popular, it is recommended to lock it away when not in use.
