    My forearms were covered in scratches. An oven mitt bored her in two minutes. With this she goes full crazy mode, bunny kicks and all, and I don't feel a thing. Wish I'd found it sooner.

    Thought he'd sniff it and walk away like every other toy. Nope. He attacked it the second I put it on, and now he waits for me in the hallway every night. He's stopped going after my hands too. Worth it just for that.

    5 weeks in and it still looks brand new. He bites it and bunny kicks it every night, and the stitching's holding up. The sleeve goes all the way to my elbow, so my whole arm's covered.

    FAQs

    It does the opposite. Play-fighting is instinct, not bad behavior. KarateCat gives that instinct a target, so your cat learns to go for the puppet instead of your bare hand.

    Yes. It's about 20.5 in (52 cm) long and reaches the elbow on most adults. Each puppet is measured by hand, so length can vary slightly (±0.8 in / 2 cm).

    Some cats need a minute to size up a new rival. Let them sniff it first, then start with slow, gentle moves and let them come to you. If your cat backs off, give them a break and try again later. Once they get it, it quickly becomes their favorite game.

    Slide your hand in through the sleeve. Your fingers reach the head, so every move turns and tilts it, and the little paws move with it. Your fingertips stay inside the padded head.
