Bottom Line
A basic looking toy out the box, but is a big hit with energetic kittens.
PROS
CONS
We did this Catit Play Massager review the help of four kittens.
The Catit Play Massager is a three-in-one toy. Includes a ball toy on a circular track, a wand toy, and scratcher.
Review summary:
The good?
Minimal assembly.
Take it out the box, pop the wand in and set it down. That’s all there is to this one.
Your cats will take care of the rest.
The bad?
Safety concerns.
The wand toy flicks around at wild speeds and has plastic wings.
Whilst they haven’t broken with multiple plays, I have my concerns.
The ugly?
Pricey.
It feels like this could be a tad more affordable, but I have gotten good mileage out of it. Depends on how energetic your kittens are.
In short:
A good toy.
Despite looking basic, this thing has seen much activity from four energetic kittens. They enjoy playing little ‘rallies’ with the circle ball track.
Whilst it doesn’t seem safe at times, it’s held up after a couple of weeks of plays. For a toy that doesn’t require any human effort, this is a solid choice.
Best for:
- Busy people
- Multiple cats or kittens
- Minimal assembly

Catit Play Massager Review
Assembly
Ready to go.
Unwrap it, attach the wand toy, and set it down. Nothing more to it.
You get a small catnip tub to use with it as you please (mine spilled a little).
In short:
- No assembly
- Set and forget
- Ready in a minute
Ease of Assembly: 10/10
Fun
Great.
My kittens loved this, either going to the ball or wand toy. They enjoyed hitting rallies with the ball at either end.
The scratcher thing in the middle doesn’t seem to offer much, but the other two parts got plenty of play – even after multiple sessions. More fun that other toys.
Quick notes:
- Kittens loved it
- Play rallies
- More fun that other toys
Enjoyment: 9.5/10
Safety & Durability
Questionable.
It’s made of plastic. The ball seems hard to dislodge, and hasn’t come out.
However, the wand has plastic wings. They’ve survived two weeks of aggressive play but will they hold up longer?
Quick notes:
- Made with plastic
- Plastic wing toy
- Questionable durability
Safety & Durability: 7.5/10
Ease of Cleaning
Seems easy.
You can rinse this one off and dry it in the sun. No problems at all.
The plastic nature probably affects longevity from things like vomiting – if that happens. Good otherwise.
Quick notes:
- Easy enough
- Plastic not ideal
- No disassembly required
Ease of Cleaning: 7.5/10
Pricing
Worth it?
Seems ok for the amount of plays I’m getting out of it. A tad pricey though.
Every time I put this one it gets at least 10-20 minutes of attention – and my kittens take out all their energy on it (instead of furniture).
Quick notes:
- A little pricey
- Fun after multiple plays
- Good if you’re busy

Value for Money: 8/10
