Eine Insel außerhalb der Zeit Die Pfaueninsel in der Havel ist ein künstliches Paradies. In seinem opulenten, kundigen und anrührenden Roman erzählt Thomas Hettche von dessen Blüte, Reife und Verfall aus der Perspektive des kleinwüchsigen Schlossfräuleins Marie, in deren Lebenslauf sich die Geschichte eines ganzen Jahrhunderts verdichtet.Es mutet an wie ein modernes Märchen, denn es beginnt mit einer Königin, die einen Zwerg trifft und sich fürchterlich erschrickt. Kaum acht Wochen nach dieser Begegnung auf der Pfaueninsel, am 19. Juli 1810, ist die junge Königin Luise tot - und der kleinwüchsige Christian und seine Schwester Marie leben fortan weiter mit dem entsetzten Ausruf der Königin: »Monster!« Damit ist die Dimension dieser Geschichte eröffnet. Am Beispiel von Marie, die zwischen den Befreiungskriegen und der Restauration,zwischen Palmenhaus und Menagerie, Gartenkunst und philosophischen Gesprächen aufwächst und der königlichen Familie bei deren Besuchen zur Hand geht, erzählt Thomas Hettche von der Zurichtung der Natur, der Würde des Menschen, dem Wesen der Zeit und der Empfindsamkeit der Seele und des Leibes.Dabei geht es um die Gestaltung dieses preußischen Arkadiens durch den Gartenkünstler Lenné und um all das, was es bevölkerte: Palmen, Kängurus und Löwen, Hofgärtner, Prinzen, Südseeinsulaner, Riesen, Zwerge und Mohren - und es geht um die Liebe in ihren mannigfaltigen Erscheinungsformen.Thomas Hettche ist das Kunststück gelungen, mit dem historisch verbürgten Personal seiner Geschichte von uns Heutigen zu erzählen. Atmosphärisch, detailgetreu und voller Lust an der phantasievollen Ausschmückung.

Dangerous
Size: 30 Pcs
My 1 year old cat loved to chase the balls, but who ever designed these balls should be ashamed of their selves. They balls are to small and easy for the cat to chew on and swallow!!! My cat just got done with an extremely costly surgery because he swallowed 3 of the balls he must of hid them somewhere because he usually did not play with them unattended. Never mind the pain my poor sweet baby just went through. I would never purchase something where somebody has not tested the size and shape of something to make sure that it is safe for an animal, sad to assume that somebody would create such a toy without checking that out and putting a animal through this nightmare. This is the first time in my that I have ever done a review, but I would never want somebody to go through what my cat and I have just experienced. Had to him to the emergency room on a Sunday to a follow up appointment at the vet on a Monday and then another follow up appointment on a Tuesday to redo the ultrasound to on Wednesday another appointment to check them and then him having to go in for an emergency surgery on Thursday. The problem is, he didn’t eat them all at one time so they obviously were sitting in his tummy until he started getting sick and throwing up. I will be checking into this company a bit deeper as well, so please be aware and don’t ever purchase something like this.

All 3 cats say 5 stars!
Size: 100 Pcs
The cats love to chase these balls. And it comes with 100! Which is the perfect amount. So far the gun is still working well. I just find you need to barely put the pom pom in after cocking the gun. If you push the pom pom all the way in, it wont shoot. More often than not though, I just throw the balls for the cats. The gun shoots them very far, the cats enjoy chasing them, but they prefer to jump up and try to catch them, which they cant do when I use the gun

My cats LOVE it!!!!
Size: 50 Pcs
My cats (3) are 7,5, and 3. They don't play with ANYTHING. They would cats mice for 5-6 minutes and quit. Teaser wands? Puh-leeze! They act so above it all, it's been hard to play with them. By some miracle, I came across this toy and thought its not so expensive if they don't like it I won't go thru the trouble of returning it. But they love it. They each have a favorite corner where they jump all over themselves trying to catch it. They play for 15-20 minutes at a time which is AMAZING! My only regret is I bough the one with 30 pieces instead of 100! I am definitely a huge fan and will be buying another on as soon as this review is finished. You can manipulate how and where you shoot the poms, the cats can't get hurt because the trigger doesn't have that much pressure but you can shoot across the room no problem. I wish I had found this a year ago. It is a definite 5 stars, two thumbs up (or three paws up) in my house!

Broke the first day
I purchased the owl ball because of other dog chew toys I purchased from Amazon. Those other chew toys are still holding together. The main reason I got the owl ball is due to the different noises it makes other than the regular squeak noise. After giving the toy to my dog he loved it right away. He especially liked the noise it made. After a few hours, I noticed he was chewing a white tube-like device. I took this away from him and determined it was the noise maker in the owl ball. I examined the owl ball and noticed the glue used to keep the ball cap shut did not hold. On closer inspection, I noticed what looked like rubber cement was used to hold the cap on but if it was rubber cement it was used improperly. Anyway, I just reglued the cap correctly and now it's just a ball because my dog destroyed the noise maker. OK, Since I posted this review I was contacted by the seller. They offered to give me a full refund for the owl ball. I accepted the offer. So, I will try it again, but buy a different color owl this time. I never expected a refund since it's just a ball now, my dog still plays with it and it is holding up very well. The material it is made from is pretty sturdy.
