## Description

From the manufacturer Nina Ottosson by Petstages - Cat Puzzle Games Curious Cats Need to Play! Cats need to be challenged. That’s why our cat puzzle toys are the perfect way to keep cats playing. While humans use vision to navigate their world, cats use their keen sense of smell to gather information, problem-solve, and hunt for food. By providing your cat with daily treat puzzles, you are enriching their life in ways that other toys and activities don’t. Buggin' Out Puzzle & Play Cat Game Always Supervise Play together and supervise your cat closely. If your cat wants to chew on the treat puzzle, correct & redirect their behavior. Start over as quickly as possible, and get their attention back on the treats. Savor the Flavor! Puzzle feeders are great for fast-eating cats because they slow down their eating pace. You can use all kinds of treats or food in our puzzles, and you can even use wet food in the compartments in the base. 16 hidden treat compartments Stimulates natural foraging instincts Encourages healthy eating pace Keeps cats occupied No removable parts for safer play Easy to clean with soap & water BPA, PVC & phthalate free Durable composite material How to Play Start Simple When introducing a treat puzzle to your cat, start simple. Fill compartments with tasty treats or food and leave them uncovered and visible. Place the puzzle where your cat usually eats and have patience! Cats like to investigate new things several times before deciding if they want to engage with them. Increase the Difficulty When your cat feels comfortable eating from the treat puzzle, the next step is to cover the food so that it is still a little visible. When your cat understands how it works, make the puzzle progressively more difficult by covering the treats or food according to the instructions. Try a New Level Our treat puzzles are available in different difficulty levels. Intermediate suits all playful and food-motivated cats. Advanced is great for active or smart cats who like challenges. Meet Nina Ottosson I created my first puzzle toy more than 25 years ago because I needed a way to keep my pets active indoors. I couldn't imagine how many pet parents my games would help. I continue to be inspired by the success stories of cats & kittens who have become happier, healthier & better behaved using my products. I hope you will all have as much fun playing with these games as I've had making them. All the best, Nina

Review: Cute and fun but my cat is too smart - Bought this for my foster cat who has endless energy and needs tiring out, unfortunately she figured it out a bit too quickly and now empties the whole thing in about 5 minutes!! But, I still think it's an excellent puzzle, very good quality and worth purchasing. I will be keeping it for future animals, small dogs could use it too.
Review: Fantastic value, cat loves it - This is the second Cat Stages toy I have bought for my 2 year old cat Otis. The first he can now solve in around a minute and so I wanted something a bit more tricky to keep him entertained. The toy is well made and robust, it has three different types of puzzle - the white bones must be lifted, the green compartments flipped open and the sections underneath are accessed by sliding the green compartments. I like the variety of puzzles and it takes Otis a good 10-15 minutes (so far!) to open it all out. Each compartment has enough room for a number of treats or one larger treat. It is easy to set up and I feel is excellent value for money. All the surfaces are wipe clean and there are no nooks or crannies where dirt or muck could build up. Overall really impressed and Otis has taken to sitting next to it looking at me to make me reset it!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why is this white one $66.00 when the other two are $19.00?**
A: Prices have been corrected.

**Q: Can this be mounted vertically? Like inside a crate? Have a kitty with a hurt leg that needs to bw crated dor a while and want to keep her occupied.**
A: I suppose it can be. I feed my cat pate so that would not fall out of the bowl. Something more runny would not stay in the bowl.

**Q: Will the Instinct Raw Boost Mixers fit in this or be too big for it?**
A: too big

**Q: Do you think a full-grown pet rat could easily move the pieces? This looks like a fun way for my lazy boys to "work for their food"!**
A: Yes, a small pet could move these puzzle pieces to expose the treats.
