Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Video Catnip -- DVDCustomer Review: The GREATEST Invention EVER Summary: 5 Stars
I think this may rival the wheel!
My three cats LOVE this dvd. (I, however, now have it memorized!!) Put it on (the larger the TV the better to surround the kitty) and set a stool or table near the TV.
1) I have a kitten (< 1 mo.) who runs around the TV and go bonkers trying to get at the birds - until he wears himself out.
2) A 4-yr old siamese who bats at the birds FOR HOURS. I bought this DVD for her when I brought her home from the shelter to liven her spirit.
3) And a 4-yr old semi-outdoor (jaded) stumpy who was initially interested but has bored (she also doesn't like to be around the other cats).
I can't believe how much my two cats love this video. I put it on repeat, go to work, and don't have to worry that my kitties are bored. (They do, however, spend their day in front of the TV). Since I bought this DVD, my cats are now fascinated with tennis tournaments. This was THE BEST ~$20 I ever spent!
Description of Video Catnip -- DVDVideo Catnip is a professionally videotaped and edited compilation of Birds, Squirrels, and Chipmunks designed to entertain cats. The Original Video Catnip is 25 minutes in length and has been the best selling pet video in the pet industry since its release in 1989. The DVD contains the Original Video Catnip and an additional 1 1/2 hour of footage for a total running time of approximately 2 hours. Shot in the highest quality video available and professionally manufactured and packaged, this is the video that started it all
There are basically four parts to the Video Catnip DVD. The first short segment is a fast paced collection of critter antics set to a humorous "Keystone Cops" type of musical accompaniment which produces two separate effects, one of which is to entertain the human viewer and the other is to signal the kitty that his favorite show is starting.
The second short segment is also a musical piece, but this time much slower. Its purpose is to give notice to the human viewer and the cat that the "kitty" portion of the show is about to begin.
The third segment, (over 21 minutes of the 25 minute original production running time) is for cats only. The cats are exposed to some beautiful close-ups of most of the cast with many group shots included.
The last segment, (1 1/2 hours), is the additional footage which is just for cats with more critter close ups and more natural birdie sounds.
As far as the effectiveness of Video Catnip to entertain cats, its been on the market for almost 13 years and has been found to be effective on almost all indoor cats. Outdoor kitties don't seem to be as impressed. Although most indoor kitties will watch the entire 25 minute show the first time they see it, some cats (who have never watched TV before) might need a little encouragement from mommy or daddy by tapping lightly on the TV screen to get kitty's attention.
