Product Description
If cats had opposable thumbs and a checking account, this is what they'd buy for themselves! Battery-operated Two speeds Hangs on a standard door knob Why We Love It: The Fling-Ama-Sring Cat Toy is a high-energy cat toy that will provide hours of non-stop entertainment! One side of a long string is sewn to a flat elastic conveyer belt that is constantly roating. The string flings in and out for a kitty's amusement. This toy has two speeds for the extra-ambitious feline! Batteries not included.
WARNING:
Important information
The Fling-ama-String Cat Toy hangs on any standard door knob. It is battery-operated and can run for hours. A long string is sewn to a soft, flat elastic "conveyor belt" which constantly rotates to bring the string out and then back in. Even if the string is caught, the string will automatically begin to rotate again after it has been released! The toy has 2 speeds to satisfy the frisky or faint feline. The Fling-ama-String was a "Best New Products Showcase winner" at the Global Pet Expo. Takes three AA batteries (not included).

She cannot get enough of this toy. I would give it 10 stars if I could. I am truly amazed by how sturdy it is. She has not broken it in a month of play. We do reattach the belt quite a bit. That's fine with us, it's easy to do.
Sophie has started attacking the FlingamaString when it is off. She cries for us to turn it on. She has never been interested in any toy for more than a day or two. Highly recommend!
I have two requests for the genius who designed this (seriously, every day you are going to ask yourself, why didn't I think of that?). One, please make a rechargeable version. We have already gone through two sets of batteries! And two, please make it remote controlled. The number of times I have to get up to turn it on and off everyday is crazy! (I'm really not complaining.)
Easy to replace a band and string too!
Your cat will play for hours so stock up on those AA batteries ! Just only put it on when home as you don't want your cat to ingest the string or the batteries to wear out.
Great for high energy and high intellectual thinking cats ! Prevents boredom and the problems that can come with that condition...destructive behavior and / or depression.
Your cat will love this! We have had one for 4 years now and now have two ! Ordered free replacement bands with strings recently !
Great folks and an amazing toy ! Enjoy !

I'd suggest hanging it on to a door you do not care about; the paint on my door has seen better days. But better that than my couch!

Would feel better knowing there was a way to buy a replacement conveyor/string thing - when it eventually breaks it'll be another £20+. I guess it's worth it though as it's the only toy he will play with.
My other cat is not interested as he prefers toy mice to kill. :)
