What is a feather tickler used for? A tickler is a sensation toy. You draw the feather slowly over bare skin, and the very light contact wakes up nerve endings that firmer touch does not. It works well on the neck, inner arms, stomach, back and thighs. Many couples pair it with a blindfold, since not seeing where the feather will land makes each touch feel stronger. It is also a common contrast tool in impact play, used between swats of a paddle or crop.
The Sportsheets Ostrich Tickler
The Sportsheets Ostrich Tickler is a single genuine ostrich feather mounted on a sixteen inch wand. The length lets you reach across your partner's body while keeping your distance. Ostrich feathers are long and full, so the touch is soft and wide. A guide with games and ideas is included. It comes in black or red.
Best for: For couples who want to try sensation play with something gentle. It suits beginners, pairs naturally with lingerie, role play and blindfolds, and gives impact players a soft contrast to a paddle or flogger. It also makes an easy gift.

How to use
Have your partner lie back, with a blindfold on if you both like. Hold the wand near its end and trail the feather tip slowly over the skin. Vary the speed and lift it away now and then so the next touch is a surprise. Try the neck, inner arms, ribs and thighs. Keep the feather dry and away from lubricant and oils.
Care
- Keep the feather dry; do not wash or soak it.
- Shake it gently to fluff it after use.
- Keep it away from lubricants, massage oils and body fluids.
- Store it flat or hanging so the feather is not crushed.

Frequently asked questions
Is the feather real?
Yes. Both the distributor and the maker describe it as a genuine ostrich feather. Because it is a natural material, each one varies a little in fullness and shape. Handle it gently.
What is the difference between the black and red versions?
Only the color of the feather. Both are the same tickler on a sixteen inch wand, and both come with the same guide of games and ideas. Pick whichever suits your style.
Can it be washed?
No. A natural feather should be kept dry. Use it on clean, dry skin, keep it away from lubricants and oils, and shake it out after use. Store it where it will not be flattened.
