My cats have not be able to get through the wire, my only thought is not to leave them alone with the toy? I play with my cats with the toy when I am home and put it up when I can at work! Sorry, but that is all I can think of!

No I would suggest getting the kitty tube..it looks kinda like the booda dome but better, and also comes with a pillow! My cat loves it although it is inside now due to weather.

The one i have is just a hard ball with no light but a friend had your problem, she coated it with luminous paint and her cats have a great time chading it as night.

As everyone else mentioned, catnip. I also used the laser pointer up the sides to get my cat to put her paws on it as she tried to catch the red dot, which I think worked better than the catnip. You can also try to hang some toys off the top and see if your cats will bat at the toys and "discover" the scratching post in the process.

It makes enough sound for a cat to hear. Our cat is blind and this is by far his favorite toy.

The whole little playroom IS made of wood but there is no bottom, which was a bit of a surprise! But I have to say, it doesn't faze the cats one bit. There's always someone inside or on the top grabbing at whoever walks by, including me! It would be fun to be able to purchase a second little red pillow to stick inside. I think the kitties might enjoy that.

Oh I'm sure:) but cats are a bit more stealth! They might figure out quickly how to work around it. As long as they don't step heavily on it they'd be fine. It would be hilarious to watch.

Personally, I could not make this myself. It is a kind of engineered maze of internal compartmentalized zig-zags with contrasting holes of different shapes and sizes to make it a challenge for the cat. It is quite ingeniously made. It is worth buying as it is not too pricey and my cat still enjoys the challenge of getting her snacks out of it. It is a toy they do go back to for entertainment.

The one that came in our Senses Circuit actually lasted quite a while and I just bought the two replacement balls. Only one of our cats usually plays with toys, but the other two have actually played with the toy, which was a good thing. I would worry about replacing the batteries as unless you glue it back together,

Our cat tree had a loop to tie a toy to. If yours doesn't have one a picture frame eye hook screwed under the shelf would work.

This NVR Miss Box sounds like a good option. Here's a link to a review:http://consciouscat.net/2011/09/20/nvr-miss-the-perfect-litter-box/

Did you ever find a replacement wand? Just wondering, because I need one. My 6-mo. old kitty keeps removing it and the last time, she hid it somewhere. You'd think it would be easy to find, but I don't know WHERE she put it! :) Anyway, I've tried improvising, but nothing stays in more than 2 seconds when she gets a hold of it. She will often start attacking this toy even when it is not on and without the wand, so she really does love it. Hoping to figure something out for her...

We do carry several cat toys that may be more durable. If your cat is very active, I would suggest a lazer pointer.

Hey Brian,I am sorry to tell you that this toy cannot be opened. It does hold a lot of catnip. But all I can do is shake the old out and put fresh when needed.

No sound at all. But I've yet to hear about a cat that isn't mesmerized by this toy.
