Cat parents know that cats can be very fickle when it comes to toys. If your cat isn’t at all unaware of that cute toy you bought him, then he’s probably been playing with it for five minutes and is now completely bored – or he’s having more fun with the box he came in.
But according to pet owners, there is a cat toy that will keep your cat interested and entertained for hours – seriously! Even better: it costs less than $7. The toy is Cat Dancer’s Rainbow Cat Charmer and it’s about to become your cat’s obsession.
The Rainbow Cat Charmer is as basic a toy as it gets. It’s a piece of felt attached to a durable plastic wand. The felt is a bit stretchy, but won’t break like other wand toys, and the wand itself is super flexible, making tug of war games irresistible.

The Rainbow Cat Charmer has a 4.8 star rating on Amazon with over 17,900 five star reviews. One pet parent wrote, “This simple string item is a favorite with my three cats. He even got my old cat to play! [The] the best features are that it is long and the rope is durable.
Another added: ‘I’ve bought so many cat toys. These are by default the best. Simple, durable and cats absolutely love them. I only needed to buy four in about 10 years. They are awesome and sturdy.
So if your cat is a toy snob, try the Rainbow Cat Charmer to see if he can change his mind. According to thousands of reviews, it will probably be hard to resist!
