Blitz Turbo Scratcher Cat Toy Reviews

The Blitz Turbo Scratcheris an exercise tool for cats that has been around for a while now.  It has remained a steady and dependable product, and with many satisfied customers, has remained on the market for a number of years.  Sold online and at many different pet stores, mine was purchased at Shopko.  It sells for under $10.00, making it a very viable option for cat owners, and serves the purpose of being a great solitary toy that your cats can play with even if you aren't home. — The toy is relatively simple, set up as a circular scratching pad, with pipe extended… read full review »

 My cats love Blitz Turbo and it keeps them entertained and offers an acceptable place to scratch.  The ball in the outside ring is pawed at until it goes around the circle at break neck speed. The cats are always pawing at it too, trying to get that white ball out of there!  Only once did my cat succeed in that, and he wasn't sure what to do once he got it out of there.  —   If you spray or sprinkle cat nip on the cardboard inner ring, this will really entice your cats to use it as a scratching pad. The only drawback is, you do get some cardboard on the… read full review »

nobody can resist a kitty entertaining itself with one of these when they come to our rescue to decide on their new best friend. — great for keeping the cats active---big ones interact with the little ones so potential adopters can see which kitty will acclimate to the new home if they already have a pet cat or two in residence. — only drawback is that they always seem to want to play play play in middle of the night! —… read full review »

My cats love the turbo scratcher.  My little girl cat sleeps on it half the time (I think it's just to keep it away from her brother).  When they are in one of their crazy moods, they can make the ball fly around the track at lightening speed.  The replacement cardboard is easy to install and inexpensive at some Wal-mart… read full review »

One of the best toys I have ever bought for my cats.  They love using the 'scratching post' in the center (especially when you bait it with a little catnip), and they have great fun chasing the ball around the track.  I have a multi-cat household, and all of them like this toy. One of the funniest things I ever saw was one of my adult cats 'teaching' a new kitten how to knock the ball around the track - he literally showed the kitten how to do it and kept repeating until the kitten got the hang of it.  That kitten is now all grown up and is the best of the bunch at keeping that… read full review »

     All my cats LOVE this toy, even the old curmudgeon tomcat. He just plays with it when no one is watching (he THINKS). We solved the "noisy at night" complaint by replacing the hard plastic ball with a rubber bouncy ball of about the same size. It rolls just great, but is much less noisy. And the cardboard bits? Eh... that's what vacuums are for! We had to buy two of these, because one cat would start playing and the others would get jealous! —     The middle part wears down after a few months, but you can just flip it over for another couple of… read full review »

I have three Turbo Scratchers in my house. All the cats enjoy the scratcher part and most of them also enjoy the ball that spins around the track. My youngest cat lies on the floor next to the toy and bats at the ball with both front paws. She has great paw-eye coordination! There is often some clean up required when small pieces of the corrugated cardboard are scratched off, but it is not a big problem. Cats need to be able to scratch in order to keep their claws on good condition. This toy meets that need and also is mentally stimulating. It comes with a packet of catnip, which encourages… read full review »

I have the Turbo Scratcher for years. Bought it years ago for Molly, who has since passed away..then it was passed on to Beamer and Pixel...who tore the cardboard to shreds, and was so pleased that I could still buy replacement, and cheaply. They are now sharing it with Ogee and Gizmo..who like to lay in the middle and try to get the ball out from under their bellies...but they won't scratch on it..even with cat nip placed in the middle..too lazy I guess. When I'm sleeping and hear the ball going around, it makes me smile, I know they're happy. Great product, no cat should be without… read full review »

 My mother bought a turbo scratcher for my cat, Sammy, two Christmasses ago. — My cat just loves it. It's one of his favorite toys. He plays with it A LOT!! — It comes with a small bag of catnip. Before I even unwrapped the plastic covering, he went after the catnip! —      He really goes after the ball, batting it around like crazy. He even lies on the turbo scratcher sometimes and falls asleep.  It gives him  a lot of excercise. He likes to pounce on the ball as it comes around the track .It is well worth the money ! —… read full review »

I had one of these for my first cat.  It got lost during a move,  Many years later, when we got a kitten, I remembered how much fun my other cat had with it when she was a kitten.  We went and bought one especially for the kitten.  When we opened up the packege, my older cat immediately went over to it and sat on it, claiming it as hers.  — — The two of them absolutely love this product.  They use the catscratcher and love chasing the ball.  Sometimes I add a little catnip to it, and they will play for awhile on it. —… read full review »

The Turbo Scratcher has provided hours of entertainment and activity for our cats, not to mention saving the furmiture and woodwork.  They love to scratch and claw at it, especially when I put in a new center.  We have 5 cats and it's not unusual for 2 or 3 of them to be around it, playing keep away with the ball or seeing how fast they can make it go if everyone bats at it. It also serves as the round table for kitty meetings.  At night, someone is usually curled up snoozing on… read full review »

I was constently picking up little mouse toys and such until I discovered the turbo scratcher.  My cats love this!  They play with it all the time and I am no longer picking up all of the little mouse toys all over the house!  This product has also saved on my furniture.  The cats have started using the scratching tool on the product and stopped using my couches and chairs to sharpen their claws. —… read full review »

My cats love to use the scratcher part--it's their favorite scratching post--and they love to play with the ball.  We have a polydactyl that is an expert and can have the ball going round and round with no break in pace.  Then, of course, you have the cat that starts the ball, then have to turn around to stop it because it doesn't quite grasp the concept.  Either way, they have fun and they are fun to… read full review »

I have two cats, a male and a female, who are siblings.  Both of my cats LOVE this toy, especially the male.  So I have two of them.  Curtis, the male, gets hours and hours of entertainment pushing the ball around the circle.  I have a lot of little balls and mice for them to play with that I'm constantly having to move furniture to find.  With this toy, there's none of… read full review »
