The Nina Ottosson Dog Treat Maze

New version, new color combination.

This is a very complicated food puzzle. It is two sided, features a maze within the toy on both sides and requires the cats to wobble or flip the toy entirely to dispense food. As this video demonstrates, not all hunting expeditions are successful. She walks away without success but that is ok, intermittent reinforcement keeps the animal doing the behavior! Practice makes perfect. Remember that novel food is helpful to stimulate interest and drive motivation. If your goal is weight loss or busting boredom the toys should be challenging and make them work hard!

Notice the name change. Sadly, the Cat Treat Maze is no longer available. The toy is identical.

No joke. A client's cat did this!! She would pick up the toy and shake it.

This toy comes apart for easy cleaning and snaps back together.
