0:18 like tail toown is for you so drop on by now why am I here I'm here because I'm testing more of Amazon's bestselling toys now the last time we did this was I a tiny bit harsh on our tested products oh this is just come on that's the freaking toy wand Too Short the hell is this thing feathers ribbon no the worst

0:42 attachments for your cat like ever the act of throwing this behind me is what I'm going to do I would rather set it on fire go away go away go away go away go away get out of here don't just don't maybe a little bit just a little hey I'm here for you I am a consumer Advocate I am incredibly

1:04 picky I'm in it for the cats and today we're going to put a bunch of other uh things to the look I'm doing this because I can't wait to decimate these toys now before I start uh decimating I mean reviewing I mean loving whatever all of these toys we will be using the Mojo rating system so out of a potential

1:25 five Mojo which who's going to get that around me I mean they might uh we will be looking at things like construction safety reliability value and playability these are bestselling toys on Amazon they are now in my hot little hands that's hilarious the second it hit my hot

1:52 little hands the world fell apart in my hot little hands is our first contestant we have the number one cat toy ball which I yeah is a niche type of thing on Amazon with over 28004 Star Plus reviews this is at about 4.3 stars and it just says smart cat toy let's find out what's in here I'm trying

2:15 I'm trying I already look like I'm like a smart cat toy I'm swear to God I'm trying not to be that guy all right so here we go we've got this uh kind of rubberized deal here just looks like a looks just like a wheel from the underside of your TV or something and it comes with this screw on

2:34 attachment which uh they do have an extra one and a cord to charge it up and then once you charge it up it does that oh oh oh okay now we've got 44 cats in this test laboratory here so what is our percentage here we got to figure of all the cats that are awake and curious there better be a number of them that

2:58 like this so let's check out the smart cat toy I it's not happy with me well I'm not happy with you either let's go oh okay that's got a little something going on with [Music]

3:26 it when we've got cats like this the corner I want to get them out of the corner especially if you have multic cats I know hey guys what here that's one way to break it up so what I do like unpredictable movement got a pretty sturdy tail to it really the way it flips around and everything I'm pleasantly surprised at

3:51 the moment ready ready [Music] go one of the things that kind of bugs me about all of these toys there's nothing on here that retains scent it's rubberized which I get why but I would love a little bit of fur on here something like that we know that any toy with some fur on it instant cat

4:13 attraction why play equals prey it still has to act like prey this thing moves like prey I'll give it that all right let me give you my thoughts on this guy here [Music] impress I'm waiting for a round of applause all of the Cats and I mean all of them went after this thing this guy

4:35 here I mean he was a total Helen so the downside of a good review with something like this in a place like this is that the better the toy the more everyone in this room is activated got to make a point to you guys this is why we don't leave toys just sitting around because when they are in that Hunter mode you

4:57 can't expect them to just shut it off because you shut this off the thing about toys like this it's not an excuse for you not to get involved in in playtime because you can control it you can put a period on the sentence what we would normally do right now is end this with a meal or a big treat time so

5:14 everybody can focus on one thing not each other not something that's running around the room and activating everybody so just remember that in the meantime that's the downside of a good review in a place like this this is a good toy from me the guy who's sitting here testing it with 44 cats it is sturdy as

5:33 heck there's no parts here that are going to kill a cat the spare tail it's still made of really heavyduty rope here it's and it's not going to come off so everybody if you look down here you'll see everybody down here is now going after the spare tail because it's something they can go after and Chomp on

5:52 and kill because they're cats so leaving out the fact that you get no no stars for your name cat interactive ball toy great uh I would give this out of five Mojo I'll give you a four four out of five Mojo did I really say that yeah I'll give you four out of five mojos

6:17 considering what kind of toy this is what I would call the self-activating toy you press a button and it activates all over the room I think it's great the only thing I would take off for this is the fact that that once a cat cat catches it what are they going to Chomp on again we do want to make sure a cat

6:33 can complete the hunt catch kill cycle also a disclaimer I have not seen this operate or not operate on uh carpeting but I bet you it does work cuz it is a pretty powerful motor and it's got this nice grippy rubber so yeah four mojos for the non-named uh Toy but also if I do recommend a toy go to the links in

6:57 the description and I will provide a link and I will for this one now don't forget if you've used any of these toys at home and you've got something out of them that I'm missing or you're missing a piece of them that I didn't get whatever it is let us know that's what this is this is a give and take it's not

7:12 just me talking to you it's you talking back to me put it in the comments so that we can all talk about it together while you're at it if you haven't already subscribed to the channel an alarming number of you guys watch these videos and you don't actually subscribe so also do that and throw us a thumbs up

7:27 because these cats really thrive on compliments thank you Amazon handing person oh it's from uh poto Roma who does make a lot of these sort of affordable cat toys but yes Potomic flapping bird no flying lifelike Sandpiper chirp tweet I don't know anyway the number one best seller in cat

7:48 mice now I see how this works you could be the number one in like Sandpiper toys uh but this this is the uh number one seller in mice and animal toys which begs the question who's number two God I just have so much fun Amazon is the Jackson cat toy so anyway it does

8:14 have holy crap 4.5 stars with over 11.5 th000 reviews it comes with our Sandpiper toy you're a Sandpiper huh and uh as they all do a little charging Dad let's figure out how to turn this guy on sure enough there's going to be a bunch of cats coming over here I'm

8:44 sure all right we got interest here and I think it's I mean the bird sound is pretty authentic um I'm trying to figure out why it stops when it does I think it must be activ AC at when a cat does something to it but I mean yeah obviously the sound is pretty good gummy take it

9:09 easy I just want to see what happens with a cat that's not gummy bear all right I'm not talking to you okay you oh my god gummy bear okay okay everybody yeah so that's what it is as soon as one of the cats touches it then off to the races is yeah what I do like about this though is because it's plush

9:35 the way it is you'll see a lot of the cats sort of rubbing their faces up against it getting their saliva on it which is just marking it as theirs and that's what we would do with prey all right I mean I'm I'm liking what this is doing I'm going to leave it with these guys for a second yeah it's working sort of as a

9:57 kicker also which I like hi okay you guys okay can I take this away from you please see how all the cats are taking their time marking this thing yeah see it doesn't take all that much to activate it so I like that too again multicat household you definitely want to control when this is out how

10:21 many toys are out I would definitely recommend multiples but in the meantime surprise surprise Jackson likes this toy for what it is again flick a switch it plays not a substitute for interactive play but the Tweet absolutely brings all the cats to the yard the eyes are sewn in so they're not the kind that they can

10:41 pull out and do damage with even the feet on here oh well you just lost a Mojo head didn't you if it's a part that can be yanked off like this easily then give it a yank test if it comes off it comes off because you don't want it in somebody's mouth so in this case I would also say

11:00 just make sure to flip off the the labels the Tail's pretty strong but there it is it's up to you but for construction passing grade for sure I like the fact that it's uh unpredictable intermittent in terms of the flapping your charge gets saved because it really does shut off and then the cats have to

11:16 work it in order to get it tweeting again so that's all great so for what it is again I'm going to give this guy a pass and grade this just lost you an extra Mojo head so I'm going to give you I'll be nice 3.5 Mojo heads that's a half a head uh but three and a half stars for the again lamely named

11:37 whatever it is Sandpiper best cat toy whistle Sandpiper in the world toy but again Link in the description on this guy worth it shut up bird nice this one's got the this is too much you guys ready for some more fun gather around everybody it's another toy from smart cat cat toy I I can't pronounce the name of the

12:01 brand Geo Civ interactive cat toy ball fast rolling in pouch motion activate whatever blah blah blah 4,000 plus of these have been bought in the past month and we've got a 4.3 rating on Amazon with over 1,000 ratings this uh if I'm not mistaken is a is a variation on a toy that I'm sure that you guys have

12:21 seen before in which we have all of these pieces so we've got this part of it well it's crinkly so that's a plus and then I think all you are doing is putting this ball in the oh it's the same ball from the other toy oh there's the tail or the

12:46 something this little furry part goes like that and uh then we I I think all you do is turn it on and put it in this thing it makes me happy that it's this big and so I assume there's a bunch of cats who can get involved here and not want to murder each other so let's find that out all right so all you're

13:05 supposed to do is take this put this in here close her up and see what happens okay so we got blinking happening and oh okay my Wonder is if it gets activated more when a cat touches it if

13:30 I'm honest one of the things that I'm questioning right now is why would something that goes in a sack have the furry collar on it all right so from what I can tell I don't think it's being activated by touch I think it just has its own timeline which is pretty slow and I'm trying to figure out other than

13:47 the fact that our friend here has decided to sit on it which is going to happen can I get you off here for a sec can I get you can you get off here for a sec come on okay I just want to see what happens when we've got the whole thing [Music] here oh there's always this part too I don't know so let's give our

14:12 review on this one sort of a for effort number one I have no idea why this furry thing is on here because it it's in the sack and if it's in the sack what's the point the plus side is they are treating it like prey very well and but then instantly they trap the prey in a corner this thing doesn't really move all that

14:34 fast I'm sure they could just change the setting on this so that it moves just more you know fast and tries to get out of corners but it's not working I honestly think that this toy will outlive its usefulness in 10 minutes and then you've got this big crinkly sack sitting around on a separate note if you

14:51 take a look at these guys doing this right now if you do get this pick it up after you're done playing cuz I guarantee you if this this is down for more than 5 minutes it's going to get peed on oh there's always this part too always always this part too it's got that texture you can tell it's probably

15:15 also I've got Tallow in it which is a non-stick agent which is derived from Animal product and I can guarantee they're going to smell it they're going to want to own it they're going to scratch on it someone's going to pee on it and that's it on this thing really good idea not great execution I give you

15:32 uh two mojos so Sandy and I are just sitting here bonding a little bit and Sandy by the way is up for adoption as is 43 other cats here at tail toown Cat Cafe in Pasadena California if you're in the Southern California area there is no way that you should pass up the opportunity to come down here for an hour hang out

15:51 with these cats maybe want to take somebody home because as well as these guys have it here it's not home and that's where you can change things and whether or not you're in Southern California there are cat cafes now in all 50 states there's well over a hundred of them in the states right now

16:08 whether it's a shelter whether it is a rescue whether it's a cat cafe now is that time for you to bring a cat into your life we need your help in more ways than you could possibly know if you can adopt you can foster if you can't foster right now you can donate to organizations that you trust ask them

16:26 what they need they'll tell you how to volunteer here and how to help what has become a pretty large problem in this country so in the meantime if you can get your tail down to tail toown in Pasadena you ready for some more fun she's not ready for anything but little does she know we have more toys

16:45 all right we're moving on here to this guy here crazy up down interactive cat toy have a fun with your cats anyway this says cat toy on Amazon however only about 500 views but again about 4.2 and so this is meant to hang in a doorway so pretty self-explanatory I believe although I've just been having a ball

17:07 today with self-explanatory things so we we'll see how that works out we've got a toy here that I know everything is so exciting right now whether it's a plastic bag or just a thing that looks like calipers uh okay I know I'm going to have trouble with this I hate reading instructions

17:25 will you do it nope so we've got a number of the same toy by the way the ad is very misleading cuz it makes it seem like there are three mice that hang from it at the same time which is not true okay so I thread this I tie a knot yeah I'm capable of that I'm tying this it's in a tight knot okay

17:50 fine okay well we got that part going on I am already so annoyed by this they are not a tough crowd because at the same time this cat is playing with this toy they're also playing with my shoe oh well the good news is I didn't break it I guess we just go like that and my shoe is still in in use even

18:15 though I'm already annoyed let me just show you something that already will annoy me more yeah come come with me the first thing about this toy even though me and this toy have not gotten off on the right foot I'm more than happy to give it a chance but I don't like this see what it wants to do is hang right

18:37 here on the door jam like this and then just take a look at that sign right there that tells you everything you need to know here and why I really hate Toys that actually hang in doorways and you want to know why they're doorways you go in and out of doorways they're significant areas if you don't want to

18:58 teach your cat the lesson of going in and out of doorways whenever they want to maybe you don't care but maybe you do maybe they treat this doorway the same way they treat the front door doorways are not to be trifled with in terms of territorial importance and potential problems with it why would you hang a

19:15 toy there why would you hang a scratching post there there are dumb like shelves that you can hang from a doorway too they're dumb that's what I'm trying to say now that said I'm sure there's a place that we can hang this I'm going to hang it from here okay what I can do I guess is

19:36 this let the fun continue so now we're going to press this button okay so now we have a taker here clearly not half as cynical as I am but it doesn't go all the way up oh this couldn't be any stupider I mean it could be wait till somebody catches it then it gets stupider in the meantime they're

20:02 competing with a very unsafe string wow hey [Music] everybody I mean this does make for great photo ops but I feel like one of the old guys in The Muppet Show who's always like what do these guys think they're doing these

20:27 stupid whipper snappers this is a more familiar position for me to be in looking at some toys from Amazon and being like so let let's let that come out right now there is so much wrong with this toy number one I don't like toys that hang from doorways I think it's a dumb idea I think territorially you're

20:48 not really thinking it through and uh that's number one number two a toy that doesn't ever fully wind itself back up and you've got this string attached to it the chances of a cat getting this but at the same time getting caught up in the string is so great I mean I wouldn't leave my cat alone at all period with

21:11 this toy kittens 100% don't let them near this toy this is inviting them to get hung up and and choked on I honestly don't what it does it starts to wind up then just drops it again so what is the payoff for the cat it's almost like a laser pointer when you think about it it'll torture them they can get it they

21:31 lose it they get it they lose it there's never that that chance I can have to run away with this and and kill it you know do something that I'm meant to do with it it becomes a tease and it becomes an invitation for overstimulated cats and redirected aggression and don't I'm trying to come up with a reason to give

21:51 this toy a single Mojo what do you think yeah I mean I maybe I'll I'll just I'll give enough props to say well somebody worked hard at inventing it a half a Mojo and that's being generous don't get it you want to help me write my new book come on key

22:16 stuck key stuck oh H it was the mouse get it okay that was a lame joke but anyway this is our final little piece from Amazon I just think it's really cute the idea that like you know cat's got a laptop Jackson's got a laptop you we got the little toy here little hangy mousey thing and then of course it says

22:39 good evening cat it's 19:23 p.m. the meow search how can we catch my I don't know it's very dumb but I still think it's cute and it's got a little scratcher here it's not bad corate which is good the toy here is lame totally lame like it it what happens is you you get it in here and then it's

23:05 done stupid but uh you know you could sprinkle some catnip on it they go to town on it you've got this cute little mouse if anything here's what I'll give you it's a cute novelty gift to give a friend who's got cats if nothing else you can do a lot worse and as we've seen today on Amazon you could do a lot worse

23:26 1569 and it's a 4.4 star $15 $15 you kidding me this is a couple pieces of cardboard I was already to give this some like bonus mojos for just being inventive but if you're going to charge close to $16 for this I I would say freaking just use a shoe box and just let's just get it over with anyway

23:53 no that was a nice try but uh I won't even bother with that one uh fun novelty not for $16 we'll give you two Mojo for that one I'm tired I'm exhausted it's really exhausting to play with cats it's really exhausting to hate things hate is exhausting love is exhausting boy the life of a reviewer

24:17 right you did a great job you did a really wonderful job she's just waiting where the treats are anyway so that's what we have from Amazon another mixed bag there were a couple of toys in there that I thought were actually good Investments for the price construction fun there were some as always uh you're

24:37 going to get toys that had no business being made one that I thought was like straight up dangerous if you used the wrong way and a couple that were totally useless and that's the way it goes now you can find links to the ones I'd like in the description so you can go ahead and get your own plus I would love to

24:53 know what you think about some of the toys that you your cats are playing with right now whether they're from Amazon or not I'm always looking for the next big thing and whether that's from Amazon or chewy Etsy or Tik Tok I don't know let me see it send it on in and uh send me a video of your cat playing with it to

25:11 this link right there and maybe you'll find your cat on one of these videos in the meantime I just wanted to give another big thanks to my friends at tail toown Cat Cafe in pasaden California where this little baby and 43 others are waiting to be adopted and taken home by who by you so come on in if you're in

25:32 the Southern California area and uh once again play with your cat play with your cat play with your cat light loving Mojo to [Music] you yeah [Music]
