Cat Toy: "Go Fish" from The Jackson Galaxy™ Collection by Petmate® (Review and Give-Away!)

Disclosure from Cody: no green papers exchanged paws for this review. I received a Jackson Galaxy Go Fish by Petmate in exchange for my always honest review! Neither Petmate or Jackson Galaxy is responsible for anything I meowed during this review.

Hi my kitty furiends! It's Cody handling the review duties today! I have been blogging for nearly 8 years now (wow my paws are TIRED!!), and throughout that time I have been reviewing/featuring, (Mom too, when it has been applicable),  toys, books, TV shows,  and special philanthropic causes AND MORE, that a certain special "Cat Daddy" has been a part of. This special purrson needs no introduction, but in the event that you are living under a bag of kitty litter and don't know who he is, this special purrson is Jackson Galaxy. Years ago I reviewed a few of his toys and today marks the first day  of a few special items that I will be sharing with you over the next few weeks, (and giving away to you if you are lucky!). These items are from the:



Jackson Galaxy™ Collection by Petmate® 

Share A Better World With Your Cat



"Cats who play are naturally more confident in their territorial ownership, meaning they will be happier and better behaved. The Jackson Galaxy™ Collection by Petmate® taps directly into their natural instincts to bring out their best."

The first item I am going to present to you is the Jackson Galaxy Go Fish Cat Toy  . Normally when Mom needs me to review something, I am not always the most cooperative cat in town, but when this item came I IMMEDIATELY went to scope it out!



Jackson Galaxy Go Fish
Jackson Galaxy™ Go Fish is a self-activating play cat toy that truly satisfies your cat’s hunting instincts and keeps him engaged for hours and hours of stimulating fun! Jackson demonstrates how to place cat treats throughout the Go Fish pegs to keep your cat busy with this puzzle toy. This dishwasher-safe toy is versatile and doubles as a slow-feed bowl!
Now, here is Jackson to tell you more about it!

Let me tell you kitties I LOVE this toy!! Leave it to my crotchety Mama to have only ONE tiny complaint. She said it was extremely hard to get the fishies into the holes (now remember, this is MY Mama talking, the rest of you probably have humans who aren't as "challenged" as my Mama is.). While Mom was trying to put the fishies in the hole, I heard HBO words kitties that would knock your white socks off (if you are kitties with white paws that double as socks!). Once my brainiac Mom stopped muttering profanities while trying to put the adorable little fish in the holes, I was FINALLY able to ENJOY and LOVE my toy!!


See? I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! (Oh and that comfy looking clam shell bed that you see in these photos? We are going to be having a give-away for that too on August 4th!!).......the photos below will show you that the Jackson Galaxy Go Fish Cat Toy is A LOT of FUN and kept me busy!


This toy is SUPER PAWESOME!!!!!!! If it involves food, I'm all over it! Mom says it is a good way to keep me from inhaling eating my treats and kibble too fast which is my normal preferred style of eating! What can I say? I take my treats and food seriously!!

About Jackson Galaxy™


Jackson Galaxy is the host and executive producer of Animal Planet’s hit show, My Cat From Hell, currently entering its sixth season. Throughout the show’s run, he has consistently challenged both the traditional cat-lover stereotype, with his tattoo-clad arms and guitar case filled with cat toys, and the way cats themselves are perceived. Jackson started his career working "in the trenches" in animal shelters, and since then, has spent over 20 years developing his “Cat Mojo” approach to solving cat (and human) issues. He has dedicated his life to promoting a compassionate world for all animals and, with the establishment of the Jackson Galaxy Foundation, is intensifying his work toward the ultimate goal of achieving a “no-kill” reality in the U.S. and beyond. Jackson’s first book, Cat Daddy: What the World’s Most Incorrigible Cat Taught Me About Life, Love, and Coming Clean, was published by Tarcher in 2012. Coauthored with cat style expert Kate Benjamin of Hauspanther.com, his second book Catification: Designing a Happy & Stylish Home for Your Cat (and You!) reached #1 on The New York Times Animal Bestseller list in 2014.

  7. I wonder if Schooner would like something like this (/if he could get the food out before piggy Choppy showed up to eat it). I think we would love to have one and find out!

    1. you need to do what I do, every single toy that Cody has is safe BEHIND a baby gate!!! My biggest fear was that Dakota would eat cat toys lol.........and...I wanted Cody to have a "safe haven" to play that is a "do dogs allowed" zone!

      Delete
    2. make that a "no" (not DO) dogs allowed zone!!

  14. Bear loves food and is a snarfer (barfer ... hahaha ... that rhymes and it wasn't supposed to). He doesn't do well with toys he has to figure out though ... he quickly loses interest. Still, it would be interesting to see him try this.

  15. 'round these parts Jackson is da man! We love his show what a great toy too
    We saw the episode when the lady made her kitty a homemade toy that was similar to this one

  17. I think Pipo might enjoy that, not so much for food, cause he doesn't eat too fast, but just for some of his treats that he loves...I did find some for the pickiest treat eater around, MOL! Here we also have a no doggy zone...and petcretary doesn't think Pipo could pick that up and move it to the doggy allowed area. Now that Pipo is alone, we are trying hard to keep him active, engaged and amused.

  18. My kitties would be very interested !

  23. We reviewed this toy awhile back so we won't enter the giveaway. It's really fun, but no cat should have to work hard for treats. ;)

  24. Looks like a great way to keep a food-oriented kitty busy for a while.

  25. You got a real nice toy Cody.
    Trying to catch treats sounds fun.

  37. I love your mouth. It looks like you're holding a penny between your teeth. Is that a weird thing to say?

    1. Thank you!! Yes, I do have an unusual mouth. Mom is upset because I was "Grumpy Cat" long before that damned cat ever came along! But...that cat is worth millions cause someone there had brains, unlike my Mama lol. It isn't a weird thing to say because you prefaced it with "I love your mouth", had you not, Mom probably would have been pissed. MOL!!! Love, Cody (PS: She is quite protective of me) xoxo

  38. Nice review, Cody! We got this for our cats last Christmas. I said a whole bunch of HBO words while struggling to put the fish in the holes too! We use it not so much for treats but for the cats' regular dry food, and they seem to enjoy it. It's nice to see Webster, especially, doing something besides inhaling the food. :)

    1. Thank you!!!!! OMG YOU HAD TROUBLE TOO!!!?? It wasn't just me!? OMG!!! Hilarious!!!!! I have to use it with Cody's food, I only did treats but with food it is a super good idea. I am sooo happy I am not alone! lol

  39. Wow, that toy looks sooooo cool! I know some cats who would love it. We've never actually tried any JG toys. Great review, Cody!
