Pounce-Bot™ Smart Cat toy

The motor does make a slight whirring sound. We recommend starting with the slower speed for more apprehensive cats. This allows them to get used to the movement and sound gradually, turning curiosity into playful engagement.

The battery life can vary based on usage and surface type, with some users reporting shorter charge cycles. A key feature is that the toy will automatically shut off or go into dormant mode to conserve power.

Yes, the toy is designed to work on both hard floors and most carpets. While the fast speed can navigate even thicker shag rugs, the slower speed might struggle a bit on very plush carpeting. It is most effective on low-to-medium pile carpets and hard surfaces.

The ball itself is made from a durable base material designed to withstand daily play. However, as some reviews have noted, the tail attachments and their clips can be fragile. We provide three interchangeable tails to extend playtime and offer variety for your furry friend.
