How cute is that?


Installation: 

Installation was supurr easy, and it took less than 1 minute to find 3 x AA batteries and set up.

Next, locate the 'on' button on the left side of the unit, press and off mew go.

Finally, find a suitable place to put the dancing Laser Dot Toy and let the fun begin.

Watch our video below to see how we got on, so sit back, chillax and hit the play button.


If for any reason to video doesn't play, please click here to watch direct on YouTube.

Mew can select One Time Play by pressing the button once, and the session will last 15 minutes, or for even more fun hold the button down until mew hear 2 beeps and mew can have the Play All Day mode set, and every 2 hours it will turn on for a 15-minute session. So purrfect for getting snoozes in-between playtimes. 

It does make a little bit of noise as the motor whirls the laser dot around but aftur a few minutes mew hardly notice it. Mew purrobably can't hear the motor whirr on the video because of the mewsic, but at approx 57 secs, mew can see Melvyn's very furst reaction to it. Though it didn't take long for him to furget about the noise and get chasing the dot!  

Fudge got supurr curious at 1 min 34 secs and batted it to face the other way! MOL

We would suggest from this that wherever mew site or position it, make sure that it's safe and secure so it won't get knocked off anything, though as we were moving it around for the video we didn't secure it.



Our closing thoughts

We've been having great fun with this toy for weeks now and let us tell mew why.

We love laser toys here and the P.A. often entertains us with the little handheld ones, but this laser toy is so much more than one of those.

As we said, there are 2 play modes, so if mew just want a quickie session mew can get that sorted or if your peeps are going out and leaving mew alone while they go to wurk etc... the Play All Day mode is purrfect for this scenario.

It has a little strap attached to it so mew can hang it from door handles, cupboards or wherever mew like, or mew can just place it on a shelf or flat surface; though if your kitty is a bit like Fudge mew might want to stick it down with something like a command strip to stop it getting toppled off.

 We also liked that the laser patterns were random and changed constantly, plus the higher mew put it a bigger and faster pattern is projected on the floor, so if mew have a huge room put it as high as mew safely can to use the floor space for maximum zoomies or for a smaller room, lower down for a smaller chase, and as mew can see in the video we tested it on various heights to demonstrate this. 

We think that the bigger faster pattern is definitely the way to get a better wurkout, especially for any kitty that's looking to shed a bit of weight if they've been overindulging during lockdown.

This is a totally top toy, and we give it ten out of ten paws as it:

has 2 play modes

is supurr fun 

is great for feline enrichment 

is highly entertaining with or without pawrents in the room 

increases daily exercise 

nurtures natural hunting instincts

keeps your daily step rate up which is especially good for indoor kitties

prevents boredom when alone

plus it looks ameowzingly stylish too in gloss white, so will suit all decors

This toy ticks all the boxes, and mew only need 3 x AA batteries to enjoy hours and hours and hours of fun.

In summary

This toy is the cat's whiskers!

WHAT'S IN THE BOX? on In The Spotlight ~ Product Review featuring the Peek-a-Bird™ Electronic Cat Toy ~ A TOP TOY FOR CATS!

Welcome to

What's In The Box on In The Spotlight ©BionicBasil®

Supurr Monday greetings fabulous furiends

Today we're sharing one of our *sponsored posts with mew from the fabulous peeps at..

... who contacted us a few weeks ago and asked if we'd like to try some of their supurr products and when we saw what they had on their website, we were so excited and even more so when a huge box arrived at BBHQ. 

Today is the second review of three, as we got three different products to test, try and use here at BBHQ - how exciting, epically exciting!!! And to see our furst review, just in case mew missed it - click here.



So let's show mew what was in the box.

Now it may only be a small box, but it really contains so much fun!

Smooch was first on the scene after the unboxing and sat staring, not quite sure what to make of it!

"Can mew eat it?" he asked.

"Er... NO!" I replied. "It'd be a bit chewy!!!" MOL MOL


Playtime at BBHQ 

We've got a fun video for mew to watch again, so hit the play button sit back, relax and enjoy!


 or click here to watch direct on YouTube.

It took about five minutes to set up, and then all mew need to do is push the button on the birdies back to start the fun. If mew want a 10-minute session hold the 'on' the button for 1 second and for all-day entertainment with the motion sensor on, hold the button for 4 seconds



Our closing thoughts

The Peek-a-Bird™ Electronic Cat Toy is a really fun and nifty toy, definitely a great buy especially if your staff is out all day or for extended periods of time.

Parsley loved it the minute it went on the floor, though Smooch took a while to warm up it. Melvyn was quite unsure to start with but we think it was the noise it makes as the little motor moves the feather tickler side to side, but he soon got with the programme! MOL

They were very curious 

Not all B Team memfurs are the same; some dive straight into the fun, others are a little more cautious, there are those that are supurr cautious and then there are those that are not bothered at all, not mentioning any names, Pandora - we can see mew sitting in the catservatory watching effurything. [Pandora isn't interested in toys at all - she's a bit of bahumbug kinda kitty!]

The B Team Boys have really been enjoying the Peek-a-Bird toy, and we really like how it can be set for a short 10-minute session or for all-day play, so if mew're feeling really energetic mew can keep coming back and setting off the motion sensor for more entertainment which is especially great when mew are home alone and need some entertainment to fill in the time till your staff returns and gives mew treats! MOL  

We've had to monitor Parsley with it as he likes to drag it around the kitchen with the tickler - OOPS! And talking about ticklers - it's very well built, and mew get an extra feather tickler just in case the original one gets a bit icky or shredded over time. Also, it doesn't come with batteries, so mew'll need to have 3 x AA's to paw before mew can begin.

In summary

A TOP TOY FOR CATS!

We think it's epic!


We would like to say a special thanks to the pawesome peeps at Petsafe fur giving us the opportunity to try out their amazing Peek-a-Bird™ Electronic Cat Toy
