The Ultimate Cat Toy is the Galkie Kitty Tease, now available after too long a hiatus. I wanted everyone to know about this toy, and get one.
This is the toy that makes RJ beg for it every weekend morning. This is the toy that makes Olwyn squee with joy. This is the toy James Bond comes running into the room for.
I still have my Galkie Kitty Tease (TM) from the early nineties and have only had to replace the toy on the end a few times. It lets us polish our flyfishing skills to get our cat to make the highest leaps and the fastest dashes.
I’ve discovered that they are available in very limited supply from the inventor’s website, The Kitty Tease site. John “Galkie” Galkiewicz is still, as he says, “in it for the cats,” and asks only for recognition that he did come up with a fantastic cat toy.
If our cats are happy with their toy, he loves to hear from people telling him so.
If stock is low on his site, which still supplies the correct size monofilament line and toy replacements, the inventor asks that purchasers can be referred to the kitty teaser people for a good quality manufacture of his toy.
We can watch our cat show off their most daring ambushes and thrilling paw moves. The fiberglass rod lends a lifelike action to the bowtie of denim that becomes more interesting the more it frays.
We put the cleverness into their prey for our cat. We can flick the toy into a couch corner, or make it flutter just over their head. We drag it across the floor. We get it away from them with varying degrees of difficulty, and start all over again, while we are sitting in our favorite chair.
I didn’t want to talk about this fantastic wand toy until others could get one too. While all wand toys have this capacity, and so I encourage their use, this classic is the best one of its kind.
When we want to perk up a bored cat, keep a kitten busy, or get our cat to enjoy being with other people, the Kitty Tease is our tool.
No one can resist its lure.
When CAT FANCY magazine had their 30th Anniversary they held a contest where their readers could vote for the best cat products, by category. Though no single product was the sole winner in any one category, when the balloting was over only 2 cat toys made it to “First Place” and there was the Kitty Tease, voted “Best Cat Toy In The Last 30 Years.” Kitty Tease Website
Here’s a whole gallery of pictures showing what cats do with a Kitty Tease. Mine have done every one of them.
If you don’t have a Kitty Tease, you need one. See this website for purchase.

i am fortunate to be married to a fly fisher who got a short practice bamboo fly rod by joan wulff…after the fat yarn frayed too much to use, i replaced it with a thin bungie cord….. my 3 just loved it…. but Monkey started eating the bungie… i now use seine twine.[husband used to be a lobsterman] with a grosgrain ribbon tied to the end… its still a popular toy…but that bungie gave it an extra spring….
I was sold by your review, even if the toy was $14.99. But $9.33 in shipping?! What, is it hand delivered by the Prince of Wales on horseback? I think I’ll pass!
Hey, I found two sources! Guess it’s more of a rarity than I thought. But I’ve had mine for years, so it can be an Investment.
