yes, they are safe to leave with your cat, i have several out for our cat to play with when he wants to, and when he can't find them i get out a couple more till we find the others, which are usually under the couch

safe for whom, the cat or the skitter critter? The cat will be fine, the skitter critter on the other hand, you might have trouble finding it again. Somewhere in my house are two from the first batch and one from the second batch. Occasionally I find one that I had given up on when looking for a current one. Then we have a couple going at the same time. Currently have one in hiding again. WHERE does he put these things? Sure likes them though. I'm tempted to open up batch #3 and put another on into service. I like having more than one at a time.

my cat doesnt even pay mind to them. they are small and justt kinda sit there they fabric is thick enough for the cat to chew i wouldnt see why to not leave your cat alone with them

We have used these for a long time with our three cats. In general, very safe to leave alone with cat/s UNLESS you notice your cat chewing the tails off; then you might want to use these as special toys for supervised playing:)

Yes...we have two cats...one that does like to chew...and we have not had a problem.

i think they'd all be safe unless they eat them. they are easy enough to operate--a switch to turn them on and off is the only control. they tend to run under the couch.

In my opinion you would probably not have to wait 4-6 weeks but if applied correctly they will not be easy to take off once newly applied. If your cat hates having them on they will be very persistent about grooming them and trying to bite them off and probably successfully too! My cat didn't like them the first time I applied them so he just kept on them until he got them off but I kept reapplying them until he just gave up and started leaving them alone, they are non-invasive and are not hurting them so don't be scared about that. I hope this helps.

Comparing them to human capsules, they are small. For a cat, however, they are not that small and I would think that if your cat is eating around other capsules, it could eat around these as well. These work best with a piller.

I don't think so to be honest. They are the sort of chairs you sit at with beer in hand for a few hours swiveling to-and-fro. Socializing chairs - would not like to work from them to be honest, unless you have a beer with you. Also, would just echo what the earlier connector wrote about cats - they love ripping these things apart with their claws so if you have cats beware!

They're squishy. My cat won't play with hard balls either, but these are great.

The wire can unwind and splinter due to old age. But until it does, it's perfectly safe for cats. Just be cautious.

Absolutely. My cats love these! It keeps them toasty, but doesn't get hot. And, it will keep your couch from getting too hairy! Because my cats spend most of their day on these heated cushions, I cover them with an old towel. Easier to wash the towel than the cushion. I live in Chicago so these are plugged in continuously from September to April. Your kitty will be so grateful!

I just tossed them on the floor. Our kitten didn't want anything to do with them at first, but once she started messing with them, she won't leave them alone. Now, they are all over the house. :) Their natural instinct to play takes over and the springs make the perfect toy.

Yes. However, they come off one at a time after a week or so and your cat may find a chair or sofa to sharpen the one or two that are exposed!

Well sort of. They are very fluffy and not aero dynamicaly inclined. My cats bat them around and sometimes shred them. When my tom cat hits one they go a short distance and hit the floor wit h a short roll.

Absolutely! The magnets are extremely strong... unless your cat is related to the Hulk, these should work wonderfully! If the cat can figure it out then the world is in trouble!

the people at petsmart wouldn't do it for me but the set comes with glue and you can put them on yourself, my dogs chewed them off after a couple of days and continued to chew them off if I put new ones on the cat didn't mess with hiss and they stayed on for about 2 weeks

No. They are not. And the feline ones are better for the reason that they have typical cat flavoring so your cat will like them better. My vet gave me the dog ones and my cat didn't like them much, but she's really happy to eat these ones.

I have two cats and I have been away for 5 days without a problem. That is the maximum amount of time I've ever left the cats (with food too, as they have unlimited access) without someone to check in. I do always leave a spare bowl of water nearby just in case they need more. And you'll need to add water as soon as you return.

Melanie, I believe they are; however, I dont know for sure because I only had mine about 3 weeks. My cat just refused to drink from it.

No. Those are perfect for small dogs but cats won't bite apart large pieces like dogs do....I've tried making cat treats and I couldn't get one cat to eat them! lol....I hope it turns out better for you :-) Greta
