I’d change one or two things..
on November 4, 2024
Posted by: cassandrar0se
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The concept behind this design is really cute, but there are some things that I would change. At the base, the logs rotate which is meant to work as a “slow feeder” but the fact that my babies see movement like that, stops them from doing anything with the base of the toy. I think that it would be much much better if the base was more of a snuff mat, so that when the treats fall from the fish, they drop down to the snuff mat where they can dig or “hunt” for the treats. It’s kind of a bulky toy that takes up a bit of space, I’d enjoy it more if it were collapsible. My babies are basically only interested enough to lean over to sniff out the treats in the fish and they’ll bat it here and there but they won’t go for the treats if they drop down where the logs are. If it was just redesigned a bit, it would be perfect - but I know other 🐈s will still go for it, mine are just scaredy 🐈s. It’s very cute regardless, and well made.

Cool Cat Treat Dispenser Toy
on November 2, 2024
Posted by: samanthaw287
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very cool treat dispenser cat toy! My cats take a bit of time to warm up to any new toy. But they all love to spin the center fire to get the treats! One con is I think the bell in the fish should be removed because it’s pretty loud and all my cats got scared when they hit it.

Cute fun toy that keeps cat interested
on November 2, 2024
Posted by: letsgoshopping
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My cat is my bestie, so thank you, Petpals and Influenster, for sending the Petpals Grilled Fish Toy to me and my best buddy complimentary for testing purposes. My cat is middle-aged and still plays with toys, although not as vigorously as when she was younger. I wasn’t sure how this toy would go over, but she loves it! As soon as I pulled it out of the box, she was intrigued. This toy has a rotating fish dispenser, so some assembly is required, but it was really easy. No tools or batteries, just very simple instructions with only a couple of steps of snapping pieces together. I loved how easy it was to set up, just a few clicks into place, and then I filled the fish with treats, and it was ready to go! A great feature is that the dispensing hole in the fish allows you to decide how big you want the opening, so you can control how many treats or how easily treats will flow out. When my cat was learning how to use the toy, I left the treat dispensing hole on the easier opening and then changed it once she got the hang of it so it would not dispense too many treats too easily. Within minutes, my cat had figured out that treats would come out of the fish if she hit it. She played with it for HOURS the first night, and now, every day, we hear her randomly playing with the toy all the time; no prompting is needed! I love how engaging and interactive it is and that she is truly interested. I used to worry about her being bored, but this toy has been perfect. There is also a second treat storage location at the base of the toy, towards the flame. Speaking of the flame, the design is so cute! I keep this out in my house and never put it away because its design is so fun and playful. It really looks like my cat has a little campfire going and I love that. The toy is big, as tall as my cat when she is sitting, at 11" L x 11" W x 11"H. It is a very durable, thick construction but still flexible enough that it is comfortable for kitties. For instance, the flame is sort of bendable, so it can handle the cat moving it around. My hits and rolls all over the toy and it does not budge. It is easy to clean. All the surfaces are smooth plastic so that they can be wiped down with water and pet-safe soap. Overall, this is such a fun toy. It is well worth the price. It is engaging and interesting for cats and so fun and cute for humans to watch and display in their homes.

Genius, adorable and engaging

This toy was everything and more for me! My cat is so disinterested in the toys and furniture pieces I get her but this one was a stand out hit. She loves to sit and bat at it for hours on end. The adjustable treat dispenser is genius and works for all the brands I've tried so far too. I'm in love with the way it's reinvigorated my cats energy levels and engagement in something other than knocking things off my dresser. Overall, it's a 5/5 I wouldn't change a thing about it!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fun "puzzle" for treat-motivated cats!
on October 23, 2024
Posted by: trulymadlydani
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My older cat especially loves this toy! It's easy to assemble and to clean, and she's obsessed with trying to get her treats out of the spinning fish. She now knows that whenever I pick up the fish, I'm going to put more treats in it, and she gets SO excited about it. She'll even tap the spinning firewood, but she's so food motivated that she'll sit and spin the fish for 20+ minutes. I think it's enriching and rewarding for her. I do wish there was another element to it, perhaps a scratching pad underneath the firewood, but it's still a "puzzle" she enjoys. If your cat loves food/treats and is highly treat motivated, this is a fun one! The fish is noisy, though, so I take it off the wood sticks at night before I go to bed.

For treat motivated cats
on October 20, 2024
Posted by: hoppytshort
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was very easy to set up. PetPals Grilled Fish Toy has two areas for treats to be dispensed. The fire area spins and my cat really liked that. He didn’t care about the treats but my cat is not really food motivated. This toy would be excellent for a cat that likes treats.

Earning their treats!
on October 18, 2024
Posted by: Anonymous
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What a cute idea! I have 3 cats and 2 have shown interest. The 3rd is just too picky. This was super easy to assemble and has a solid feel. It took a few days but one Boris got the hang of it, he’s spinning the fish all the time. (Couldn’t get the video to upload) Rio sits by and lets him do the work until the treats drop. I also like that once they fall out, they still have to make an effort and spin the fire logs to get the food. Cute idea!
