Catstages Nina Ottosson Buggin' Out Puzzle & Play – Interactive Cat Puzzle Feeder for Indoor Cats, 16 Hidden Treat Compartments, Slow Feeder, Durable & Easy-Clean

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 great product! My baby Portobella is a little Hoover when it comes to kibble and this lets her show how smart she is and is very incentivized. She loved it right away and started playing by swiveling a seed out of the way and bumping the peg with her nose to keep the treat slot open :) it’s silent play for her too because there’s no electronics or clicking it’s just her new late night snack toy! The first day I check the next morning a d she solved her whole melon 😍 it’s sturdy but there’s no harsh edges or corners so she doesn’t smoosh her whiskers when getting her reward :)

Love this puzzle for giving my cat some mental stimulation. Very good quality and it's nice and easy, good for beginners who haven't done puzzles before. The only negative is that some of the pieces slide down too easily, moving on their own and revealing the treats without any work.

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!

This is an engaging cat toy for retrieving treats. There are multiple ways to hide treats and different challenge levels, so your cat won't get bored. I found that I needed to show my cat how to do the most challenging tasks this puzzle offers. She otherwise would have lost interest in it. Catstages puzzles are innovative and well-designed toys for entertaining cats or teachimg them to eat slowly by working for their kibble.

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.

This is a great toy. Once cats figure it out, they'll do it faster and faster. My cat likes doing the leaves the most since they're easiest for him. Super easy to clean and there's no setup required. Ready out of the box. It's lightweight. The material feels like wheat straw or recycled plastic. It is sturdy but light. This is a noisier toy. You can hear when kitten is pawing kibble out of the holes or sliding the leaves and ladybugs. If that "bugs" you 🐞 then keep looking! I got this toy on sale but I think it's worth full price, too. Great Christmas present for my creature. It can fit a surprising amount of kibble and works great as a kibble slow-feeder. If you feed your cat portions of dry kibble, this would be a good feeder for that. It can be time consuming to fill the ladybugs and requires some precision.

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.

My cat absolutely loved it!

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。

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.

Our cats love this. Just make sure you put delicious treats inside to entice them.

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.
