Guide Review - Panic Mouse

Panic Mouse, by Panic Mouse Inc. is a computer-generated interactive toy for cats, which requires three AA batteries (not included) to operate. Assembly was fairly self-explanatory, although the directions also helped.

Our GuideCats, Jaspurr and Joey, were intensely interested from the moment the box came out of the carton, and I had to put aside the wand/mouse portion of the unit until I could get it fully assembled. Once Panic Mouse was turned on, the two of them attacked it with a vengeance, and they took turns chasing, batting, and biting at the mouse. The only real drawback I could find was that Jaspurr quickly discovered how to topple the base, so I wouldn't leave it left on unattended.
