To maximize your cat’s experience with the
Loco!Motion
toy, we’ve included the following helpful hints. Because
each cat has its own distinct preferences when it
comes to play, we recommend that you observe your
cat’s reactions and modify for your own pet.

The
Loco!Motion
meets the need for EXERCISE, one of the
12 needs described in our SmartyKat CompleteNeeds
System. For more information about the Loco!Motion and
other fine products in the SmartyKat CompleteNeeds
System, visit
www.worldwise.com
.
Replacement feather attachments, and other SmartyKat toys
that can be used with the Loco!Motion are available where
SmartyKat products are sold. Visit us at
www.worldwise.com
to find a SmartyKat retailer near you.
1. Begin by introducing your cat to the feather attachment
by dangling it from your hand in front of your cat before
attaching it to the Loco!Motion toy. Let your cat smell the
feathers and familiarize itself with the attachment.
2. Cats love unpredictable movement (it’s how prey moves
in the wild). Experiment with the speed control dial to
determine what kind of movement your cat responds
to best.
3. While supervision is ALWAYS recommended with any cat
toy, some cats will play more aggressively if they think
they are alone. If your cat fits into this category, leave the
room and peek around the corner to keep an eye on
the fun.
4. Watch the action get certifiably insane by storing the
feather attachment in
SmartyKat Certified Organic Catnip

Thank you for purchasing the
SmartyKat
™
Loco!Motion
™
automated activity toy.
Our Loco!Motion toy is a perfectly fun way to
encourage healthy activity in all cats. Because
feline longevity and quality of life are tied to healthy
weight levels, the Loco!Motion is a small investment
in your cat’s happiness and well-being.
SmartyKat Loco!Motion is the next best thing to
a membership at the local kitty gym. The erratic
movement of the Loco!Motion is so fun and
irresistible it gets even the laziest cats moving in
the right direction. The plastic wand with the
tempting feather attachment swivels and bends
unpredictably — driving cats crazy!
