This wand is similar to a fishing pole and it is made from flexible carbon. There is a nylon string attached to the wand with feathers or a toy attached to the end of the string. You swing the string around the cat's head to entice them to chase the feathers or the toy attached at the end. Some of these fishing wands have bells on the end as well, so that noise will also catch the attention of your cat. This toy is suitable for cats and kittens or all ages. This other model has a bit more flexibility in it, so that if your cat pulls on the wand a lot, the wand won’t break in half.
Advantages
- Since the wand is 33 inches long there is no way you will get scratched by your cat. This wand is long enough that your cat will have to jump around after it to catch the toy.
- This fishing wand is a great way for cat owners and cats to interact.
- Some versions of this wand can be extendable so that the rod distance is even longer.

- These fishing wands usually come with a few attachments so you can choose different ones if one get grubby.
Disadvantages
- Some cats might enjoy eating the nylon string more than playing with the feather.
- The string can break if your cat chews on it a lot.
- Some feathers could get loose and your cat might accidentally ingest them, so always supervise your cat around this toy.
- The string can come loose from the top of the wand if your cat is pulling on the toy and if the wand you have is not flexible, it could cause it to break.
