When it comes to spoiling your pet, it can sometimes feel like a no-brainer. Whether that be purchasing them food that has all the right healthy ingredients, clothing that'll keep them bundle, or a bed they can take long afternoon naps in, there's a lot to choose from. One of those pet items that feels like your pet can never have enough of? Toys!
As someone who also can't stop spoiling their furry friend, I think I just found my cat's newest favorite thing to play around with. The fun gadget is none other than the Flopping Fish toy from Potaroma, available on Amazon, and it's currently on sale for $13!
Featuring a built-in motion sensor, when touched, the fish flops up and down, mimicking wiggling movements like a real fish. The results leave them entertained for hours thanks to its long-lasting built-in battery that can be recharged by its complimentary USB cable. There's no need for pesky batteries here!
"I finally found a toy my cat doesn't get bored with within a day," one buyer wrote. "She absolutely loves her fish. I can barely get it away from her to charge it. Will be buying another one for backup!"
And if you're worried about the fish getting dirty, don't be! Its cover is 100 percent washable, so let your cat totally embrace its wild side. Speaking of wild side, each toy comes with a fresh catnip pouch that you can access by unzipping the zipper at the fish belly. Feel free to refresh the catnip pouch with your own supply for maximum fun playtime.
While advertised as a cat toy, other furry friends like dogs can get in on the fun with the toy as well. Due to the mechanics of the moving tail, we recommend gifting it to medium-sized dogs or smaller ones so the toy can last longer. Here's to more energized play days ahead!
