Hello – I found your blog through StuffChristiansLike (hope you don't mind!)
I'm not much of a cat fan, but my dog would go ballistic over something like this. Then again – it may be more fun to use it to play with a kid? I don't know… I've got nothing… it's got to be pretty high on the list of “strangest things to actually spend money on”. But these days, it doesn't take much to make it onto that list.
It looks kind've like it could be a glove for Edward Scissorhands. ???
OK…that was sooooooooo not what I was expecting. Now, I have one cat that's too cool to play with something like that, but she would eventually give in and go for it…even kick the other cat's butt out of the way. Other cat…no brainer….that should be her name….but she would LOVE LOVE LOVE it.
They would probably love it, but, for whatever reason, it creeps me out and is reminiscent of Freddy Krueger (minus the colorful ribbons and glued-on felt fish of course)
You, on the other hand, appeared to be mesmerized by it Los.
First of all, my cat would love it and would be so surprised that I actually have the time to slow down my crazy life to PLAY with her. She drools when she is happy, so this would cause a RIVER to come out of her mouth.
I could also use it to completely freak out my neurotic Beagle dog, Freddy. He already thinks my family is insane (my 6 year old daughter puts costumes and wigs on him all the time). Actually , scratch that, he might pee and that would not be good.
You could attach an marionette to the ends and do your own “Lonely Goater” puppet show for your friends.
I have something better than cats. I have 3 hyper kids under the age of 6. They sometimes act like goats on a cocktail of cocaine and LSD (not that I would necessarily know what that is like – I can just imagine.)
I would use this to wake them up in the morning. Could you imagine getting blinded by lights, and then seeing that in your face? I know it will probably end up being traumatic, but hey – it prepares them for life, right?
If I didn't have a cat then I think you could use the Finger Zinger to do the ole camp trip of putting shaving cream in a sleeping person's hand, tickling their nose with the Finger Zinger and watching them slap shaving cream all over their face…or in the same vein you could tickle their face with the Finger Zinger and start screaming, “You're being attacked by an octopus!” Oh the fun that would ensue!
i have two cats who would probably love it but i could sew five strips of riboon to the fingers of a gardening glove for a whooooole lot cheaper than i'm sure it's sold for. right?
okay, i HATE cats. both me and my husband do. my kids would love to torment each other with that. (ages 12, 10, 8 and 7) i imagine it would turn into some sort of costume at some point too. very funny!
I am not a big cat fan either, but I have two because our landlord won't let us have a dog But cats are ok. Go figure. No finger zingers here. But those would make some awesome spirit fingers….
I have 6 cats (Anyone want one? we only want 3!) And I've seen these things before, but never wanted to buy one cuz it looks like a toy for cats with ADD-”Ooh, a toy! Ooh another toy!! Ooh, another toy!”
i have cats. I have always had cats. The finger zinger is a waste of money. All you need for hours of fun with a cat (and some dogs) is a laser pointer.
Have a cat. Will not by a Finger Zinger. No beloved family pet is worth looking like that. The only people who buy those are the ones who have 20 or more cats and talk to them like their humans.
RAIN IT DOWN

I have the most neglected cats on the planet…. so no, I would not buy it.
It would probably be a great baby toy as well. Or… uhm… interpretive dance?
i have obviously posted a retarded video comment. kthx.
1. it's officail
2. you really are crazy:)

This could take nose picking to new heights… could
Yes, I have a cat and, no, I wouldn't buy it.
They would probably love it, but, for whatever reason, it creeps me out and is reminiscent of Freddy Krueger (minus the colorful ribbons and glued-on felt fish of course)

1. I have a cat but she hides all day and is not a playful thing, she is more for decoration.
2. I am quite positive that my 5 yr old could do something with it. Batman style, or make a mess trying to paint with it.
3. Regift it. (i added a third)
I hate cats. No finger zingers for me.
First of all, my cat would love it and would be so surprised that I actually have the time to slow down my crazy life to PLAY with her. She drools when she is happy, so this would cause a RIVER to come out of her mouth.
I could also use it to completely freak out my neurotic Beagle dog, Freddy. He already thinks my family is insane (my 6 year old daughter puts costumes and wigs on him all the time). Actually , scratch that, he might pee and that would not be good.

The laughs just keep coming….
1. Whew – when I saw “Finger Zinger” I was a little concerned that we were headed to R rated here…
2. I think it's actually pretty cute, but I'm too cheap to pay money for that kind of thing. I can do the same with my daughter's hair ribbons.
3. Why was that at Buckhead? Coming from a small church I'm not familiar with the feline ministry department.
baby hand mobile
interpretive dance through hand signing
finger floor routine (think finger skate board, only it's gymnastics and you're doing the ribbon event of floor exercise)
“Finger Zinger” – wear it any day just to freak out the people in the office.
Or better yet, imagine the great double takes you'd get at St. Arbucks!
Just Say No On The Finger Zinger
my 5 month old would love that thing…

Hey Carlos,
I have four kitties and have never had a Finger Zinger. My cats go nuts over “Da Bird” http://www.amazon.com/Bird-Interactive-Feather-… and “The Cat Dancer” http://catdancer.com/catdancer.htm
If I didn't have a cat then I think you could use the Finger Zinger to do the ole camp trip of putting shaving cream in a sleeping person's hand, tickling their nose with the Finger Zinger and watching them slap shaving cream all over their face…or in the same vein you could tickle their face with the Finger Zinger and start screaming, “You're being attacked by an octopus!” Oh the fun that would ensue!
I was thinking it was gonna be some kind of torture device, like a spitball launcher — rubber bands, small missiles, etc.
That said, I don't need what it actually WAS anyway…my cat goes nuts when you just toss a twist tie across the room.
i have two cats who would probably love it but i could sew five strips of riboon to the fingers of a gardening glove for a whooooole lot cheaper than i'm sure it's sold for. right?

Ok I have a cat and erhm…I have bought one of those before…my cat hated it! So yeah…there ya go… some cats…not a big fan of the finger zinger!
um yes, my dog would love that thing. but i think she's becoming more and more like a cat every day.
I am sooooo buying these for my daughter's cheerleading VARSITY squad next year!!!
*big grin*
cause I'm just a crazy mom like that…
If I had a cat, I would suffocate it with the finger zinger.
i have cats. I have always had cats. The finger zinger is a waste of money. All you need for hours of fun with a cat (and some dogs) is a laser pointer.
