Early last week, a package arrived at our door. Mom brought it in and opened it up. We were about to check out the box when she pulled out another, smaller box. We gave the bigger box a cursory inspection then came back to check out the smaller box.
Mom opened the second box and out came a big, round, white object. While mom went out to the garage for something, we checked it out but it didn’t smell like anything so we weren’t impressed. Mom came back with some things, batteries she said, that she put inside the white thing then set it on the floor and flicked a switch.
Oh, my cat! It started making noise and a string kept disappearing inside and jumping back out.
Echo and I were mesmerized! We were too busy watching the string to notice Ocean slinking out of the room. Imagine, the toy hog afraid of the new toy!
Echo was first to pounce and eventually capture the string. He pounced over and over.
I watched and finally gained the confidence to try it too! Echo was very good about sharing and letting me have my turns.
Suddenly, it quit working. What happened? We sat and sat and sat, waiting for it to do something.
Mom came and flicked the switch again and we were on the hunt once more. We probably would have played until the batteries ran down if mom had kept turning it on!
This was the FroliCat Flik we had won from Dezi and Lexi at Dezizworld. Dezi assured us we would love it and we sure do. Mom knew Echo would like it because he LOVES strings, but she was surprised at how much I like it. She was even more surprised that Ocean is afraid of it! Thanks, Dezi and Lexi, for this great prize in your giveaway.
Have a playful week.

Hmmm… Elves? Could there be ELVES hidin’ in that toy, movin’ the string? Santa’s elves are too big to get in there but… HOLD THE PRESSES!!! Fairies. I’m thinkin’ of fairies. They’re super little and stuff. Could there be FAIRIES hidin’ in that there toy? Inquirin’ minds wanna know.
I purchase one of these a couple of years ago, they loved it, my 7 cats. Now I can’t seem to find them anywhere. We have a black cat with one good eye he would grab the string and drag it off for himself. Does anyone know if you can still buy these?
It used to be available on Amazon but I don’t see it there now. Perhaps the manufacturer, PetSafe, decided the string was dangerous. Mom never let us play with it unsupervised. It does look like it might be available in Canada: https://ca.petsafe.net/products/frolicat-flik

That looks like a fun toy! I still prefer the human doing all the work though, rather than batteries!! 😉
That looks like a super fun toy! I know Carmine would love that, but Milita would be scared of it, too. Maybe Ocean will check it out after it’s been around for a while and sees how much fun you are having with it.
that’s one of Cody’s favorites and it was one he had that all of his friends could enter to win in his birthday give-away last April. Be careful with the string though. Cody loves string and I have to watch him like a hawk with that toy because I am afraid he will chew through it.
Mom worries about that with Echo so she puts it away when she’s not watching.
MOL Looks like a hoot and a half Christie! You lucky devil. You will be fascinated with this toym I can tell.
