It is a very well-made toy however I thought that the flashing light ball would get my cats' attention since they love the red dot so much but I was wrong. They are afraid of it. I haven't given up on it yet though. I sit and bat it around hoping that they will become interested. If they don't I guess I will donate it to a shelter.

My kitties love this! The scratcher part is always loved & appreciated, however my Maine Coon can't seem to figure out why the ball only lights up when it is moved. He will sit there & watch as the others play, then he will take his turn, then stop, then do mini taps on the ball then stop to see if it lights back up. He seems determined to be the one that figures out the "secret" of the ball. I love that you carry replacement scratcher pads for it at a reasonable price as well. I would say it's a big hit since there is something for us all to love about it.

Both my cats love this toy and use the scratching area. Fun to watch the ball light up and go around!

This toy/scratcher is a big hit in our family of cats. One cat is totally obsessed with the ball and game, the others watch him at his game and the others look like they are watching a tennis match. I have added other "like" balls in the track and it is much loved. An old track ball mouse ball is heavy enough to use in the track and the interplay is such fun to watch, since I play ball with the kitties. When not being played, it is a great scratch pad and the kitties hang out lounging on the cardboard. I hear it being played at 5am so it is well used.

The Star Chaser arrived quickly and it is pretty sturdy. Its an Xmas present so we haven't tried it yet but it looks like fun!

My Cat Doesn't Tire Of Playing With This, I Just Wish It Was A Little Heavier, As He Tends To Move It Around The Floor. I Wouldn't Hesitate Recommending It To Another Cat Owner.

My cat does not use as a scratcher, but loves rolling the lighted ball around. I have other family members with declawed cats and they also love rolling the lighted ball around.

I love this toy! My cats love it and my fosters also love this toy. The toy itself is great but my complaint is that the paper that is on top of the cardboard is glued to the point that when you take the paper off, it leaves some paper on the cardboard.
