DH got our cat this telescoping cat toy. I always hated the dinky 18in ones everyone sells, I don't want to run around with it! But this is almost 5 foot long, so I can sit and play with the cat all over the living room.

4.4 foot long.
Soft foam grip. ☁️
Collapsable!!
Super duper lightweight! 🪶
Ends can be changed out.

Suddenly, I realized, it's perfect for horses!!

Lighter than any horse whip I've ever come across!!

Highly portable.
It collapses to 16 inches, expands with a light flick of the wrist to 56 inches, nearly 5 feet.
I'll have to get my gram scale to weigh it, as its far too light for my kitchen scale. Feels like nothing at all! And with my weak wrists, this is a godsend!

Anyway. Thought I'd share this little hack!

Having a little weight on the end makes it flick out to full length easy peasy. And can shrink with a little air tap downwards.

Not very threatening....

Can reach all over. Note the dainty hold I have on it. My thumbs are even weather these days, this left one moreso after my fall from the younger pony, seen under this pic. 😑

Readily collapses when they press into it amd flexible. So, no issues with accidental jabs! Like this one right here into the soft nose skin.
