Rod toy Trixie TRIXIE 45676 for cats and small dogs, brown, 380 mm

The Trixie TRIXIE 45676 rod toy is a 380 mm interactive play wand designed for cats and small dogs. The lightweight brown rod, made from wood with a plush polyester lure, lets owners dangle and swing the lure to trigger chasing and pouncing instincts. Its compact size and simple construction make it suitable for indoor use, daily exercise, and short training sessions that support physical activity and owner–pet interaction.

Advantages

The rod toy combines a rigid wooden handle with a soft plush lure to provide clear visual and tactile stimuli for pets. Its 380 mm length gives a balance between reach and control, enabling precise movements to mimic prey. The plush material can hold small amounts of attractants such as catnip, increasing engagement without altering the wand's basic maintenance needs. The simple, lightweight design is easy to store and carry and is appropriate for use in smaller spaces.

Suitable for

• Interactive play sessions with indoor cats
• Short exercise and focus training for small dog breeds
• Encouraging natural hunting behaviours such as chasing and pouncing
• Strengthening the bond between owner and pet through guided play

How to use

Hold the wooden rod at one end and move the lure in short, varied motions to encourage stalking, chasing and pouncing. Begin with gentle movements to gauge your pet's interest and increase speed or height of the lure as appropriate. Supervise all play, especially when pets mouth the plush lure, and pause play if the lure becomes damaged. Store the rod toy out of reach of pets when not in use to prevent unsupervised chewing.

Usage recommendations

Use the rod toy for limited daily sessions of a few minutes to provide exercise and mental stimulation; regularly inspect the plush lure and wooden handle for wear, remove the toy if parts are loose or damaged, and avoid prolonged unsupervised use with strong chewers.
