The ball that runs away from your cat.
Dartle rolls, turns and darts on its own, and backs away when it meets a wall. Go on, try to catch it.

Something to chase while you get on with your day.
Most toys only move when you move them. Dartle moves by itself, in short bursts with pauses in between, so it behaves more like something worth stalking than a ball that just sits there.
It finds its own way
Press the button and the ball rolls off. When it meets a wall or a chair leg it reverses and heads somewhere else, with the tail trailing behind it.
Three ways to play
Double-press the button to switch between a fast mode, a slow mode for timid or older cats, and an interactive mode.
Rechargeable and easy to clean
The battery is built in, so there are no batteries to buy. Wipe the ball with a damp cloth to clean it, and keep it out of water.
Stay nearby while your cat plays. Check the ball and tail now and then, and stop using them if either is damaged. Dartle rolls best on hard floors and low carpet.
Order a Dartle
Two balls cost less each. A second one is handy if you have more than one cat, or want one charged while the other is in use.
Questions
How long does delivery take?
Orders are sent within 2 business days and arrive in . You get a tracking link by email when your order ships.
Will my cat play with it?
Many cats chase things that move on their own, but cats have their own opinions and some will ignore it. If yours does, send it back within 30 days for a refund.
Which floors does it work on?
It rolls best on hard floors such as wood, tile and laminate, and on low-pile carpet. It struggles on thick or shaggy rugs.
Is it noisy?
You will hear it rolling on a hard floor. If that would bother you at night, switch it off and put it away at bedtime.
Is it safe to leave out?
Stay nearby while your cat plays with it. Check the ball and the tail regularly and stop using them if either is cracked, chewed or coming apart. If the tail gets caught under the ball, free it before play carries on.
Can my dog use it?
Dartle is made for cats. A larger dog can chew through a small ball like this, so we do not recommend it for dogs.
What if I want to return it?
Send it back within 30 days of delivery for a full refund. If it arrives damaged or faulty, we replace it or refund you and you do not need to return it.
