I got this about 3 weeks ago for my cat to tackle her boredom and keep her active while I’m gone at work, and my cat loves it! It did take time for her to understand how to use and play with the toy. I started off by letting her get used to it being in her environment, then placing her treats inside the fish, on top of the fish, and in the fireplace. This way she knows to seek them out in easy mode. I also taught her to use her paw to push the fish to dispense the treats cause she kept looking at the fish not knowing what to do. Now that she’s got the hang of it she plays with it quite often. It’s very rewarding and I highly recommend it if you are looking to get something that will keep your cat stimulated and bring out their natural instincts.
I will say that you will need to add plenty of treats inside. Once it got down to 5 treats it was getting difficult for it to dispense- you’d need to spin it more and faster for it to fall out. So remember to refill it so your cat doesn’t wonder why there’s no more reward after “hunting” their meal.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My cat is super smart and I have different ways to keep him entertained and engaged while I’m at work. Using treats as an incentive is his favorite activity as for most cats. Easy to build, sturdy and easy to load treats. It took my cat some time to learn how to get the treats out but every time I come home the little fish is empty from where he managed to get them out on his own. Very cute toy for cat brain activity.
I have had this cat toy for a week and not only is it super cute but my three kitties love it. The greenies treats are to big for the little holes but that's ok because it was perfect for the smaller treats. The toy was simple to set up my twelve year old managed to do it all by herself and it is the perfect size it hardly takes up any space. As an added bonus to me even my puppy loves it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The fish part is a bit to hard to rotate but it’s a very good entertainment for my brother cat . Love how it has the fish for the treats great size did not disappoint.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My cat isn't that smart so I didn't have high hopes for him with this toy. He performed exactly as expected, as in, he can't figure out that the fish needs to spin to release the treats. Instead, that's my job. He does love the bottom part of the toy, what is essentially the flames and firewood. He loves spinning the firewood around to try and get the toys that I've knocked out of the fish. As far as quality, this seems like it'll hold up pretty well. It was easy to assemble and I think it's heavy enough where a cat couldn't knock it over while trying to spin the fish at the top. I really like that the treat hole size is adjustable so I can use any treat that my cat may like. All in all, if your cat is super food driven and able to figure out how to use the top part of the toy, I think it would be a good toy.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This grilled fish over a fire is so adorable!! I absolutely love it, and so does my cat!! I love how it's a slow feeder on the bottom and a treat/dry food dispenser on the top! The plastic is a very strong mold, which I think will last a long time! My cat has eaten out of the slow feeder multiple times, and I think he enjoys it as much as I do! It's a very fun food and treat item to have
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This adorable grilled fish campfire cat toy works great as a slow feeder. The design is great with the large, round base, that is bottom heavy so as not to tip. It was easy to assemble.
The fish has a slot dispenser on each side of it, with 3 different hole sizes for the treats or food to fall out of. There’s an extra slot dispenser on the front of the base, in case something happens to one of the two that are on the fish. There’s also a bell inside the fish that rings when you spin the fish; however, it seems to startle the cats.
I love the logs and the flame and how cool it is when you spin it. It is very easy for cats to move the logs in order to get to the food in between them.
I technically only have one cat, an inside cat; however, there are 5 very spoiled strays outside that call this their home. I let the outside cats have a go at this first because I thought they would do better. Only 3 of the 5 showed any interest, but they didn’t really acknowledge the fish at all. They didn’t have any trouble getting to the food after I spun the fish. My inside cat recognized that the food came out of the fish, so he sniffed it and licked it a little and then went back to getting the pieces that already fell. I was surprised because he had food in his bowl but still chose to play around with this while the outside cats didn’t have any food at the time. Cats are confusing.
This was all on day one, so I’m quite sure my cat will figure out how to push the fish in order to get more food to come out. The food does sometimes land on the floor if the fish is pushed too hard or fast. All in all, cool slow feeder for cats.
