Highlighted Reviews
"My cat solves puzzles way too easily (she is extremely food-motivated) and this is the only puzzle to routinely stump her. I love that it offers a variety of configurations so I can change it up easily. I really hope this brand releases more puzzles of this level of difficulty."
"So far, she has shown no interest in finding the food hidden in this puzzle, despite being on a diet. She would rather hunt for a squeaky mouse hidden under the carpet runner. Disappointed."
Bottom Line
If you're looking for a fun and mentally stimulating toy for your cats, especially if they are puzzle enthusiasts, it's overall a great buy.The toy very effectively doubles as a puzzle toy and a feeding bowl at the same time, but it offers poor dispensing results and small toys the cat might swallaw and ultimately can get stuck.
