😸Pounce! Kit — Best for Indoor & Small Pets
What it is:
A compact indoor lure toy designed especially for cats and small dogs who like to stalk, chase, and pounce in a smaller space.
Features:
- Automatic play - runs on its own timed sessions so your pet gets bursts of fun without supervision.
- Manual play for together play with your pet - you control the speed and motion of the lure using the included remote
- The lure moves unpredictably and simulates natural hunting play.
- USB‑C rechargeable and portable - no cords needed.
Best for:
- Indoor apartments or small rooms
- Cats (its primary audience)
- Small dogs that don’t need a long chase course
- Owners who want an engaging toy that can be operated both manually or as a self‑running toy
Limitations vs Chase!:
- Not controlled via the SwiftPaws app or standard remote — it uses its own remote and built‑in play patterns.
- Intended for short indoor courses (e.g., around a room).
- Pounce is for indoor use only.
Great choice if: You want an indoor enrichment toy for your cat or small dog.
