Cody's FroliCat™/ PetSafe Colossal Cat Toy Birthday Give-Away!!!!

I cannot believe it!! Today my precious boy is EIGHT YEARS OLD!!! Wow!!!!! It is so hard to believe that so much time has passed. I am grateful every day for having adopted Cody a mere two weeks after my Angel Bobo crossed the Bridge at the age of eighteen.

Cody is one of the most fearless, feisty, playful, determined, cuddly, loving, stubborn, food-obsessed, friendly and oh-so-adorable kitties you could ever meet ,(but I admit that I am biased!)

Back in December when we featured the FroliCat Pounce on our blog, I knew I wanted to do a most special give-away for Cody's eighth birthday. I contacted my "magic elf" that hooked me up with most of my FroliCat toys, (and a NEW PetSafe toy that you will just die for),  and asked if a give-away were possible. My wonderful magic elf granted my wish!

My "love affair" with FrolicCat began when a friend guest blogged about the FroliCat Bolt  and I had to have it for Cody! That was the first of our FroliCat toys.

FroliCat™ BOLT™
 is an interactive laser toy that provides hours of fun for you and your cat or dog. Simply hold BOLT in your hand or place it on a flat surface, turn it on, and watch your pet pounce, chase, and bat at the exciting laser patterns. Pets love the random patterns they can chase across the floor, up the walls, and over furniture.

We completely fell in love with FroliCat from that moment! I had seen the FroliCat Pounce at a pet expo that I had attended, and had to have it for Cody. Cody and I blogged about the Pounce last December but here is a photo to refresh your memory!

FroliCat™ POUNCE™ by PetSafe® 
is an automatic hide-and-seek toy with 4 speed settings for hands-free play.

To this day Cody is completely in love with the Pounce
 and I am too! 

Now Cody has two more loves from our furiends at PetSafe! Cody couldn't believe his eyes when these toys arrived this past Monday!

Keeping with the MOUSE theme, the first of the two products we would like to show you is The Cheese by PetSafe!

The Cheese 
is an exciting game of peek-a-boo with two mice that pop out of each side of the swiss cheese block. Your cat will love the hunt! For surprise play sessions, use Play While You Are Away mode to keep cats engaged throughout the day.

Cody and I think that assembly could NOT be easier! So easy, that Cody helped me! You simply pop the batteries in and you are ready to roll! (All of the toys featured in this post are the same, super easy, no ridiculous assembly required!)

FEATURES:
Two mice play peek-a-boo from either side of the block of cheese

Play While You Are Away mode allows spontaneous playtime throughout the day (Great for lazy kitty Moms like me!)

During single play sessions, timer automatically turns toy off after 10-15 minutes (The FroliCat Bolt and Pounce also have this feature and I LOVE it!)

Requires 3 AA batteries (IMPORTANT NOTE: Batteries are NOT included, be sure you have them on hand!)

Here are Cody and The Cheese In Action!!

Now THAT'S a lot of fun!!!
While Cody LOVED "The Cheese" his favorite of the two toys was the

FroliCat™ FLIK™

FLIK is an automatic teaser that throws then hides a string to entice your cat to play. Simply turn it on and watch your curious cat stalk FLIK and try to capture the string before it pops back into the toy. Cats can’t resist trying to grab the “tail” flicking back and forth, just like a wild cat stalking hidden prey. No cat has ever had this much fun with an ordinary string before!

FEATURES:
Automatic teaser throws and hides a string for your cat to attack (IMPORTANT!! Cody was chewing the string each and every time, possibly because he is obsessed with string. My only complaint with this toy is I would NOT leave Cody alone with it, as I would with all of the other toys featured in this post. I would be afraid he would chew through the string, because he is THAT determined. That being said, I do LOVE this toy and it is one of Cody's favorites.)

Automatic hands-free play

Shuts off after 15 minutes or when Off button is pressed

Perfect for playtime on a table, shelf, or floor (Love that it is lightweight and transportable!)

Rubber feet on bottom prevent sliding or moving (NOTE:OURS DID MOVE. Not a problem, but it DID MOVE as evidenced in the videos below)

Requires 3 AA batteries (not included)

The main things about ALL of the toys featured on this page is that Cody LOVES THEM! The FroliCat line is EASILY my favorite line of cat toys that are designed to enable a cat to entertain THEMSELVES. Owner-cat play is important, but if we are all honest, we  LOVE  toys that will keep our cat(s) occupied, often (without our having to stop everything and play), and away from the kitchen more often than not!

I find the FroliCat line to be quite sturdy, NONE of Cody's FroliCat toys are broken and unlike MANY other toys that Cody has, they are ALL played with, and played with often and enthusiastically.

Cody is in love with ALL of his FroliCat toys from PetSafe and if you live in the U.S. (our apologies to our International readers, but due to shipping costs our give-away must be exclusively in the U.S.), you have a chance to WIN!!!!

WHAT WILL YOU WIN?

ONE LUCKY READER WILL WIN ALL of the toys mentioned in the blog post (The FroliCat Bolt, Pounce, Flik AND The Cheese toy. An approximate $108 VALUE!!!! The fact that Cody turned eight and there is an eight in that dollar amount is purely coincidental!)

TWO ADDITIONAL READERS will EACH win The Cheese toy!!! (a $29.99 value)

ENTERING IS EASY!! Simply enter on the Rafflecopter below and be sure to complete the bonus entries for more chances to win!

GOOD LUCK!!

In full disclosure: I was not compensated for this review/give-away. I wanted to have a give-away and my "magic elf" agreed!

It's the FroliCat POUNCE™ !! Enter to Win!!

Hi my furiends! It's Cody and boy oh boy do I ever have a PAWTASTIC toy to show you!!!

It is the:

FroliCat POUNCE™

And it is my LATEST OBSESSION!!

Before I tell you about it, allow me to tell you when my obsession with the FroliCat™ line of toys began. Grab a soft cushion and some noms and sit back and listen! 

Way back in 2010 before Mom had a clue as to how to blog, she had a guest blogger stop by and talk about the:

 FroliCat BOLT™

Mom was so impressed with this product that she HAD to get me one, and she did! FroliCat™ is a line of innovative cat toys, brought to you by ***Radio Systems Corporation. The toys are super fun and not only provide the ultimate in interactive play, but they are also ideal for your cat, dog, ferret, rabbit, etc. to play with on their own!. (Well, the human has to turn it on, but that's it! The toy does the rest! Your human can join you in play, but they don't have to! It's great for when your human is feeling lazy as mine often does!)

. All FroliCat toys are designed to engage your cat in enthused play!! 

That was back in 2010 and I STILL have my FroliCat Bolt! To this day it remains one of my favorite toys! But now, there's a NEW TOY IN TOWN!!

Meet the FroliCat POUNCE!!!!

Now, how did I learn about the FroliCat POUNCE? Back in November, Mom attended the Novi Pet Expo and was wandering around aimlessly looking for something SUPER FUN to bring home for ME! She happened upon, stumbled into, the PetSafe booth and was IMMEDIATELY drawn to the FroliCat POUNCE! Why? Because it had a MOUSE and if there is ANYTHING that gets me MOVING, it's a MOUSE!!! "I'm all about da mouse, 'bout da mouse, no kickers, I'm all about da mouse, 'bout da mouse, no kickers..." well YOU get the idea!!! This isn't any ordinary mouse either, this mouse has a NAME!  His name is Marshal Maus™ !!  (He's a formal kinda guy!)

Now occasionally Mom comes in handy for something! Mom KNEW that she had to get this for me, and ever the cheapskate, thoughtful Mom that she is, she went home and contacted a "Magic Elf" that she knows, to see if she could not only get the FroliCat POUNCE for me to review, but she  also wanted to be able to have a give-away for YOU!

The "Magic Elf"  DEFINITELY worked some MAGIC! Within TWO DAYS I had the FroliCat POUNCE!!!  When it arrived I didn't quite know what to make of it, even Dakota was mesmerized!

What is the FroliCat POUNCE™ ?

POUNCE is an automatic, rotating, hide-and-seek cat toy. Marshal Maus™ is an electronic mouse, (that runs on batteries!!),  who zips around the circular path, zooming forward, reversing direction, hiding under obstacles, and occasionally twitching back and forth. The unpredictable movement stimulates your cat’s natural instinct to hunt, chase, and pounce on prey.

Speaking of "umpredictable" check out my reaction when I first watched the FroliCat POUNCE in action! Be sure to watch my head!!

If you notice, it didn't take me long to get the hang of it!!! Soon, I was so confident, I decided to try and eat that Marshal Maus! Mom had to intervene to prevent me from causing his early demise!


Mom and I both couldn't be more thrilled with the FroliCat POUNCE and have NOTHING negative to say about it! It couldn't be easier to operate. It runs on THREE AA batteries, (not included), has FOUR DIFFERENT SPEED SETTINGS (so you can control the speed of the mouse and the "teasing" factor!)  Also, once you turn it on it STAYS ON FOR 10 MINUTES!!!!!

It's so PAWESOME that my "Magic Elf" has said that I could have a GIVE-AWAY!! THAT'S RIGHT!!  THREE LUCKY KITTIES THAT RESIDE IN THE U.S.A WILL WIN THEIR OWN FROLICAT POUNCE!!! (An approx. $40.00 VALUE!!)

Entering is easy!! Just enter on the Rafflecopter below, the lucky winners will be announced on Saturday, December 27th!!! GOOD LUCK!!!
