I loved it and had to remove the bell from the ball because my cat couldn't stand it. After that, it seems like it has caught on to the toy. It's mesmerizing. I doubt it will last long; it was only bitten a little and started to get damaged, but without a doubt it's a very interesting toy. Even a very young child can love this toy, very Montessori-like or something like that. If it breaks, I will buy it again.
