Excellent Puzzle Toy for Older Cats!
This cat puzzle is great, especially for my older cats!It’s a fairly easy puzzle, but they were definitely intrigued and interested. Once I showed them how the parts moved, they quickly figured out how to get their treats! It’s so fun to watch them engage with it.Highly recommend for senior cats needing a little mental stimulation!

Excellent mental stimulation for bored indoor cats
I have both the rainy day and the ladybug puzzles. Both of my cats (12 years old and 14 months old) each took a week or two to figure out the puzzles, and now I only wish this company made more similar puzzles. Nothing else that I’ve seen on the market is as high quality or as challenging while still being easy for cats to use. These are still a challenge for the cats, and the cats each get treats in one or the other of the puzzles (or the Catstages wobbly toy) daily. My friends who see my cats using these puzzles are always shocked at how “smart” my cats are. I think we often underestimate cats’ intelligence. Difficult puzzle toys like these provide very important mental stimulation for cats.

Affordable, Decent Form Factor, Cat Used on First Day, But Slippy Pegs
The quality and durability seem excellent due to the high-quality materials, though I’ve not done any extensive stress tests. The only notable quality issue is how the circle parts don’t seem to stay up on their own very well, and that knocks it down to four stars. Battery life is not applicable because this doesn’t use a battery. Weight is adequate to stay grounded without feeling too bulky to move when vacuuming. Noise level is not applicable because it contains no major moving or electrical parts. This would probably be fun for dogs too, as stimulation is stimulation at the end of the day, but dogs require more attention and physical activity, so this would be more for separation anxiety than something useful when you’re in the other room. Cats likely will find a more consistent use for this than dogs, but dogs may be at it longer due to their higher intelligence and trainability, thus more potential for engagement and persistence with the higher-level challenges.

Don’t forget your furry babies this Christmas!!
Kit Cobain loves his new toy! Keeps his mind sharp and a fun way to dispense treats! I love watching him figure out where they are hidden! He’s not a chonker, but I imagine this would be great for slow feeding as well! Price was great, and easy to wash. Highly recommend. 10/10.

It’s Ok – Not much of a challenge
This kept my kitten entertained for three minutes whenever I hid treats in it. She figured out how to get to the treats right away – not much of a challenge. My other kitten has no interest in it at all. A crinkle ball or Christmas bow on the other hand provide hours of fun. The product works but I think there are more entertaining toys that do not necessitate treats. So it’s a three star for me.

Great Puzzle/Toy for a Cat who Craves Stimulation!
I have two cats. One absolutely loves this puzzle and is really great at it! The other cat isn’t so interested, so how successful this is will depend on your cat. It’s very durable and she pushes it around a lot. She can stay interested for about 10 min until all the treats are gone. I got it on sale and I would say the purchase has been worth it!

Just what the cat needs
This is perfect. I was feeling like my 10 year old cat wasn’t getting enough stimulation and came across this. She loves her treats, and I love her having to work for them and eat them slowly. It took her a little bit to figure out, but not as long as I thought. She does it very carefully. Has a little trouble getting the treat out once she uncovers it. But that just adds to the time. It is a very solid contraption, very well made. For the price I was expecting something less solid, but was pleasantly surprised.

商品名は「猫用おもちゃ」なんだけど、うちではチワワ用の知育トイとして活躍してます。最初は「てんとう虫の形が可愛いし、小型犬でもいけるかな?」くらいのノリで買ったんですが、これが思った以上にハマってくれてます。本体はてんとう虫型で、上の赤いパーツがスライドしたり回ったりして、その下からフードやおやつが出てくるタイプのトリーツゲーム。うちのチワワは最初、「ん? なにこれ?」って感じでクンクンするところからスタートだったんですが、ちょっとだけ手伝ってあげて仕組みを見せてあげたら、前足と鼻を上手く使ってスライドさせるコツをだんだん覚えていきました。小型犬でも扱いやすいポイントはこんな感じです:本体がそこまで大きくないので、チワワサイズでも怖がらずに近づける裏面に滑り止めが付いていて、フローリングでもそこまで暴れないパーツの動きが軽すぎず重すぎずで、「ちょっと頑張れば動く」絶妙な手応え完全に“がっつり噛んで遊ぶおもちゃ”ではなく、頭を使ってフードを取り出すタイプなので、雨の日で散歩が短くなっちゃったときとか、夜の“もう一遊び”にちょうどいい感じです。難易度としては、全くの初心者ワンコ:最初は人間が少しヒントを出してあげた方がいい慣れてきたワンコ:1ゲーム数分で全部出せるようになるかもというくらいなので、「難しすぎて心折れる」より「考えながら遊べて楽しい」寄りの知育おもちゃだと思います。一方で、犬に使うときに気をつけたほうがいいなと思った点もあります:噛みぐせが強い子だと、プラスチックのパーツを噛み壊そうとする可能性あり放置すると本体ごと引きずり回したりするので、必ず“人が見ている前提”で使うおもちゃフードやおやつのサイズによっては穴から出にくいことがあるので、小粒タイプが相性◎なので、「ひとり遊び用のおもちゃ」というよりは、飼い主がそばで見守りながら、一緒に遊ぶ知育タイム用っていうイメージが合ってます。【良かったところ】猫用だけど、小型犬(チワワ)でもサイズ感・構造ともに十分遊べるスライドや回転でフードを探す“頭を使う遊び”ができて、良い気分転換になる雨の日や散歩が短い日の“プラスアルファの運動&刺激”としてちょうどいい底に滑り止め付きで、フローリングでもそこまで暴れない【気になったところ】噛み癖が強い犬種・子には、目を離すとパーツを噛み壊しそうで少し不安完全な“放置おもちゃ”には向かない(必ず見守り前提)フードは小粒タイプじゃないと出にくいことがある【まとめ】「猫用って書いてあるけど、小型犬でも遊べるかな?」と思いつつ試してみた結果、うちのチワワにはかなりヒットした知育トイでした。がっつり壊しながら遊ぶタイプのおもちゃじゃなくて、頭を使ってフードを探す“パズルゲーム”的な遊びをさせたいという飼い主さんには、猫・犬どちらにも候補に入れていいアイテムだと思います。小型犬で、好奇心強め&フードモチベ高めな子には特におすすめです。

Super activity Spielzeug. Wurde gut angenommen.

My 5 month old Maine coon loves it. It’s good quality: sturdy, to hold him standing all over it (right now he is 4kg) : pieces are easy to move so he can get the reward for his efforts but still makes him work for it. It’s been a good way to introduce him to new places with the distraction of a treat, that lasts a bit longer than giving them to him by hand.

It’s a good quality enrichment toy with multiple permutations for cats to find their snack. It wasn’t overly difficult for my cat, but challenging enough for her to stay engaged and slow down her snack time.
