Catstages by Nina Ottosson Rainy Day Puzzle & Play Cat Puzzle Feeder – Interactive Treat Game for Indoor Cats, Level 3 Slow Feeder Enrichment Toy, 13.8" x 14"

As a young kitten, my buddy would scarf down his food so fast he would make himself sick. I started using this puzzle to feed him and helped his tummy so much! There are different puzzles to solve and also the big wheel can be “locked” into place with your cat needing to figure out what’s keeping it from spinning. It’s very enriching and challenges their brain almost like a session of play time! Very well made and easy to clean. Although we no longer use this for feedings, I will put some treats in there if I feel like he’s too bored and needs something to do. We both love it!

I got this for my kitty to entertain him while I work the night shift. He ignored it for the first week and refused to work for his treats. Then I come home one day and it's been emptied and he started crying for me to refill it. In no time he had mastered the highest difficulty and doesn't even want me to put treats in his dish anymore -he wants to do the puzzle. I'll be ordering the other models when I can. I have absolutely nothing negative to say about this product. It's been worth every cent.

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.

Works as designed. The instructions are very thorough, and make recommendations for how to help your cats learn how to use it, plus ideas to enhance enrichment such as placing the toy in different locations every time so that they can "hunt" for their treats. Of my two cats, one is generally treat motivated and loves to use the toy. It is easy for her to slide the components to reveal the treats and keeps her engaged until she finds all the treats. My other cat, who typically does not play with treat toys as much, does not have quite as long of a snout and had some difficulty getting the treat out of the compartment without using her paw to pull it out. Definitely a little frustrating for her, so it make take a little modification to make the toy work for her. Overall, though, I'm very satisfied with the puzzle toy. It's quiet, big, and feels durable.

This is such a fun puzzle feeder! It’s the first one my kittens have ever encountered and it wasn’t neither too easy nor too difficult for them. It entertains them for at least 10-15 minutes and it seems like they are genuinely engaged and having fun finding the treats. I was worried at first that they’d find it too difficult and give up, but I think this was a great introduction to the concept.

Very interesting in theory, poor execution in practice. My cat is smart and curious. He enjoys foiling my best laid plans to keep him out of cabinets, doors, etc. I wouldn't be surprised if he somehow has opposible thumbs. He also hoobers up his food when I feed him. So purchasing a puzzle food toy like this seemed like a great way to slow down his eating and also exercise his brain. From the get go he was frustrated because he couldn't get the food out of the recessed wells in the toy. Forget manipulating the hole covers, he couldn't even enjoy getting the food out. He got the idea of fishing the food out with his paw. Often times, the food would get stuck between the two plastic layers that allow the covers to move up and down. Other times he'd get the food but the cover would slide down adm knock it from his paw. I would hold the cover so it wouldn't slide down but he just wasn't enjoying it. He doesn't really eat large pieces of food for snacks or otherwise. Nah, this was a bust. I also purchased a larger puzzle toy from this same company that he also didn't enjoy. I'm not sure what he should be doing different to limit his frustration.

Love it for my cat! He figured it out pretty quickly and it’s so good for his brain. It’s really sturdy and bigger than I thought it was going to be but he loves it!! I don’t worry about pieces falling off or him choking on anything.

This cat puzzle is basically a feline brain gym — guaranteed to keep your kitty entertained while they plot world domination. It’s perfect enrichment for keeping those whiskered little masterminds mentally busy. My cat treats it like a tiny percussion instrument (and a weapon), enthusiastically batting it around — and somehow it’s still intact. The sliding slots glide so your furry Houdini can fish out treats like a pro. It does make a bit of racket during playtime, but honestly, that’s just dramatic soundtrack to my cat’s heroic efforts. All the pieces are firmly attached, so it’s safe for even the most ambitious snack-seeking paw.

Comprei para o meu gato que é obeso e está fazendo dieta. Achei muito bom, ele fica entretido tentando tirar a ração dos compartimentos e isso diminui a sua ansiedade. Ele está comendo mais devagar. Valeu a compra!

This puzzle board is officially my cat's favorite thing in the house. It keeps them engaged, works their brain, and slows down their treat eating perfectly. It’s durable, doesn't slide around easily, and provides tons of fun. 5 stars!

A friend recommended this for our cat and we’re so glad we bought it. It’s a great way to give them enrichment. And our cat loves it. It’s great quality, easy to use and clean. Fantastic value for money. I’m glad our cat took to it, and we use it everyday.

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。

El gatito lo ha resuelto fácilmente. Es algo complicado de limpiar, no usar con chuches líquidas
