New to Prime Day? We’ve got the lowdown on everything you need to know . Sales are accurate at the time of publication, but prices and inventory are always subject to change.
My cat is not cute. She is impatient and uncute. She does not allow herself to be petted or picked up. She is all business and does not play at all. I have tried catnip, all kinds of toys and balls of string, but Peepers is not interested. She literally never plays. But then I bought the Enabot ROLA Cat Robot – a completely ridiculous but absolutely amazing robotic cat toy with a security camera. And for a few glorious moments, I got her to hit the toy. She even looked like she was having fun . I even filmed it – evidence that can be used against her later.
The ROLA Mini is on sale for Prime Day for $127.99, down from $169. Whether it’s worth it is a personal choice, but I really like this thing. It does exactly what it says it will do, and it does it better than I expected. It’s an adorable little robot that you can control with an app on your phone, and it shoots amazingly high-quality 2K video, even in the dark. It transmits and receives audio, and pressing a button will make it meow, bark, or quack. It can even work as a security camera, taking photos or videos of moving objects in front of it.
