He is not the only one ST, I bought one for Coco a year ago, she did nothing, just walked passed it, I ended up giving it away to someone else's cat who was more active.
My cats love them. I move them across the floor and they chase them......the only problem is, I have to make sure there is only one cat at a time, or they collide in the chase!
I used to have a laser light for my cat, she loved it, chased after it like a kitten and used to jump up in the air to pounce on it. She was slightly bemused when I used to roll the light over her paws though
Coco has a toy which is a long plastic pole with a leopard material like flags on the end of it, but she is not interested in the flag, she just likes playing with the pole, I stick it under the door and she goes mad.
