Catit

groovy fish pink

Description:

The Groovy Fish is an interactive, motion-activated toy designed to tap into your cat’s natural hunting instincts. The Pink version (#43022) comes in a fun fish-shape with a soft padded cover and vibrant pattern. 

🎮 Key Features

• Motion-activated with paw trigger: A sensitive motion sensor causes the fish to start moving when your cat touches it with a paw. 

• Three lifelike movement modes: The fish cycles through three different realistic movement patterns to maintain interest.

• USB-rechargeable battery: The toy includes a USB cable and supports up to approx. 250 play cycles per full charge. 

• Refillable catnip/silvervine pocket: Includes two bags of potent catnip + silvervine mixture (one pre-inserted) to maximise engagement, and you can replace the bag once the scent diminishes.

• Soft, removable fabric cover: The outer cover is made of cat-safe materials, removable via Velcro or zip and washable by hand (e.g., at 30 °C). 

• Durable motor casing: The internal motor mechanism is protected by a robust casing to withstand being bat-around by a playful cat. 

📐 Specifications

• Size: ~ 27 × 4.5 × 14.5 cm (10.6 × 1.7 × 5.7 in) for the Pink version.

• Battery capacity: ~ 500 mAh, charging voltage 5 V.

• Colour: Pink (#43022) – also available in Blue (#43021).

✅ Benefits & Why It’s Good

• Engages your cat in active play, encouraging movement, stalking, and swatting instead of just lying around.

• The combination of motion + scent (catnip/silvervine) provides sensory stimulation — both visual/motion and smell.

• Because it’s automatic and paw-activated, your cat can play even when you’re busy or not directly involved.

• The USB-rechargeable design means fewer disposable batteries and more convenience.

• Soft cover + washable design = easier maintenance and hygiene.

🛠 Care & Usage Tips

• Ensure the toy is fully charged before first use; check the manual for charging time.

• Insert the catnip bag into the pocket before closing the cover.

• Place the toy on a flat, stable surface so the motion sensor works properly and the movement doesn’t get blocked.

• If the catnip scent fades, replace the bag to renew interest.

• Clean the fabric cover by removing it and hand-washing at ~30 °C (86 °F), and make sure the motor/electronics are dry and kept away from water. 

• Supervise play especially if you have very active cats – while it’s durable, no toy is entirely indestructible.

🎯 Who It’s Ideal For

• Indoor cats who need extra stimulation and movement.

• Cats that enjoy chasing and batting at moving objects.

• Owners looking for an engaging toy that works with minimal human effort.

• Multi-cat households — each cat can take turns or engage with it in their own way.
