This is an ABSOLUTE TOPPER! As soon as I take it upstairs they go crazy. Absolutely their favorite toy. I even take it away after a while so it always remains a topper. One cat loves to play with it on the rod, the other will roll around with it and cuddle and smell and lick the fur - by the way, she does the same with me on my lap, "nibbling" on my clothes when she is seeking rest and comes to cuddle. Great product this
