Thought I was buying the telescopic rod I had previously purchased from Go Cat. That one is not the same. Although I’m sure it’s great for lures to be dragged on the floor like Da Wild Thing, it’s not ideal with Da Bird lures. It’s not as easy to make the lure fly and my cat knew right away something was amiss. The wand is too short and, in comparison to the one I was looking for, the metal wire seems to be more rigid.
