Reviewer: accidental tourist,

At first this toy did not seem to do what it promised (kneeding paws, purring, screeching when tail is pulled), but after about an hour in my 5 y.o. daughter's arms it suddenly came to life - and she will not part with it. It's not even cuddly - it's a furry robot - but it is endearing nonetheless. I purchased a collar, inexpensive bed and bowl from a chain pet store to complete the illusion. My daughter is in heaven.

It has been dropped from a height of about four feet onto a linoleum floor and no damage. It has been jerked from her arms by her friends (because she truly can't bear to let go of it), and it's working beautifully.

I've splurged on electronic toys that were never loved - and it was hard to take the leap on this toy, but I cannot say enough of how pleased we are. Yes, it meows, but not excessively at all. Yes, it is pure white, but have not experienced a real shedding problem. Mainly, this toy had made its 5 y.o. owner slap happy. I'm out to purchase one for my 7 year old (who has VERY patiently watched her sister blissfully interact with this toy) for Christmas. I highly recommend it. An electronic toy built strictly for encouraging our instinct to care for others. Can't beat that.

So real it's creepy...

My daughter got this cat from Santa and it is awesome. It looks so real when it looks around and open and closes it's eyes. It was the hit of our Christmas dinner with our family joking about it sneaking up on us at night while we are sleeping. We love it. It meows and when you pet it's back it lies down and purrs. Also if left alone it closes it's eyes and lies down like it is sleeping. I am so glad we have it. Although the Amazon price is not the best I have seen.

Not bad like some say

This is a delicate toy. If you plan on purchasing it for a younger child you might want to consdier that is it a robotic toy, small moving FRAGILE parts. This isnt a fishor price cat. This kitty does everything as described. I purchased this as a christmas present for my soon to be 5 yr old. I suspect some of the more frail parts may be broken but I decided to buy anyway. The ears are rather thin and one drop on the head could easily be broken (hence why take careful consideration for young butterfingers) Overall this is a great toy. Scared the jeebs out of our real cat though. It sounds that real.

Excellent Toy

I can't understand the other comments on this toy. I just got it for my 2 year old for christmas, so excited to get it so I have opened it to test it out. Its GREAT!!!! All of the sensors work and it has been a hit at my office today. Some people even thought it was real. I love it and I know my daughter will too.

"Princess" is a Welcome Addition, but with a few caveats

"I love you Princess."
"Sometimes, she can be very frightening with her hisses."

We've heard both in the first twelve hours of ownership. When Daughter opened it yesterday evening, everyone in the room (ages 6 - 60) was agog at how real Kitty was in her motions, noises, etc.

>She leans in toward you as you pet her.
>She purrs and her eyelids close to half-way
>You feel her purrs through her whole body
>The first time she hisses she will scare the bejabbers out of you

It's unexpected when it happends for the first time, but here's what we believe is a comprehensive(ish) list of hiss inducers.

>Holding or pulling her tail
>Squeezing her too hard
>Talking aloud about taking her to the V-E-T.

Okay, I made that last one up, but knowing what sets Princess off is a good way to avaid those things and to avoid the hiss. Agree with others that colors beyond white would be welcome.

PROS:
1) Realistic
2) Fun
3) A good job of mixing soft goods (fur, stuffing, etc.) with mechanicals.
4) Motors inside kitty are fairly quiet.

CONS:
1) The first hiss is a doozy.
2) She seems to be limited in her body positions ... variations of sitting are all that we've seen to date.

About our daughter:

-6 years old, very gentle and respectful of her toys
-Very cyber-aware, knows that Princess is robotic (doesn't make the hissing any less alarming)
-Loves her stuffed animals and other little buddies, takes care of them, brushes them etc.

Recommendation?

Overall a great addition, with a lot of play value. Feels like a real kitty, mixing the softness of the fur with the bone structure (kind of) of a real cat.
