Our cat loves it
I fill it up with kitty kibble in the morning and it keeps her entertained for hours. It took her some time to figure it out, but she has gone from head-butting it across the floor to smacking it around with her paws.

One was perfect…
One was perfect, the other was defective. It would cost more to return it. I was able to part it out with another mouse I had that was worn out. My cat loves playing hide and seek and getting her kibble out of these!

My fur kids love it
I started with just a bit of their dry food and they seem to think itâs filled with treats. ð i do sometimes put treats in along with the kibble. The 4 click adjustable opening makes filling it easy and makes them emptying it a little trickier. They carry it around, so itâs not too heavy. I try to have at least one kind of enrichment for them while Iâm at work. They seem to like this one because itâs always empty and never where i left it.

Not attractive to cats & poorly made
If you genuinely are trying to get your cats more enrichment I would not choose this brand. The whole toy is hard plastic & it’s a little large which a lot of cats don’t seem to be attracted to. It’s just covered with a thin bit of fabric. The sliders are a little too hard for the cats to open up & if they did they would do the kicking thing but the toy would have to be positioned on the correct side for them to kick open. When I opened one & slid the door thing it broke immediately as well, telling me that these are also cheaply/poorly made. Definitely opt for a different toy, neither of my cats were into these & I will be returning them as it was a waste of my money. One of my cats has a real issue with getting bored & he lacks enrichment in the winter since we can’t take him on as many walks so I got these for him mostly. I got a bunch of other enrichment stuff & these were his least favorite.

Good concept but cats give 2 paws down
I wanted so much for this toy to work for at least one of my cats. They are ages 5 and 10. They both get bored with toys quickly. One is quite chubby because she loves treats. I really thought this toy would be the answer for her, at least. Unfortunately, neither of the cats took an interest in the toy.I put catnip in there the first time, left the sliding button open, then showed it to both cats at different times. They gave me their “What do you expect me to do with THIS?” look. So, I put my chubby cat’s favorite treats in there and tried again. She sniffed it, looked at me like “you expect me to get the treat out of THAT?” and walked away. My other cat didn’t even take the time to sniff the toy with the treats before walking away.Finally, I tried showing them how to play with the toy. I thought if they felt the “skin” of the toy they’d understand it was kind of like a real mouse to hunt and play with. They watched me play with it, but when I put it by them and touched their paws with it, they just looked at me as if I was crazy.I have picky cats, so I can’t say that their disinterest is the fault of the company. That’s why I gave it 3 stars. Other cats – especially kittens – may take more interest in the toy. Unfortunately, the only way my cats woyld play with this toy is if there’s a real mouse inside.

Works great
The first one I received was defective, but the sellers sent me a new one asap, I can fill it with food, the food comes out when I bat it around. Yes, I said when *I* bat it around. My cat is very interested in sniffing it, and in eating the food that *I* knock out of it, but hasn’t figured out yet that SHE can make the food come out. Hopefully we’ll get there!

Neat concept, could be better quality
The concept of this small feeder toy is great! I like the removable cloth casing for easier cleaning and refills, and it’s very cute. However, when it arrived the package was not intact– the clear plastic cover had not been properly glued onto the cardboard backing. In addition, when I tried to open the treat compartment, the “switch” broke off and into pieces. I tried for 20 minutes to fix it, but there was no way to reassemble the pieces without further damaging them, as there is no way to reassemble them other than attempting to force the pieces back into place.

Cat loves this feeding toy
My cat figured it out almost immediately. I fill it with 1/8 cup of small-sized kibbles and set the opening at the smallest setting. Our cat loves to turn the toy over by putting a claw into the cloth cover and shake a bit. When one or two kibbles come out, the stares at them for a bit, then suddenly bats one around to chase them on the floor. before eating. If another kibble has fallen out, she does the same with the next one. Then she returns to the toy for another go around. She seems to really enjoy this activity, running, chasing and pouncing on each kibble she has batted. It’s become part of her daily routine. She also likes playing with the toy when there in no food inside, batting it around. She also carries it into other rooms, as she does with her two other toys. The toy is strong and sturdy. I have no reason to believe it won’t last for years. I’m pleased with this purchase. So is my cat.

Weâve had t two of these for several months now. They still look brand new after nightly use!

Our 5-month Ragdoll kitten loves it. After we showed him treats can fall from it, he found his own way, how to get treats: turns it with his nose (whether on YouTube we saw cats use their paws for that).Our kitten actively uses it around a month. Before that, he was still distracted or scared with the sound that this toy (plastic part) and a similar toy from other brand (completely plastic) make on hard floors.Will buy for my mom’s cat, and my friend’s cat!It’d be better called “food Mousey”, as I saw being called on “Billy speaks” channel, it’d be much easier to find searching

Ces petites souris sont super pour occuper les chats et leur donner l’opportunité de “chasser” leur nourriture. Mes 3 chats ont compris comment elles s’utilisent assez facilement. C’est très rigolo de les cacher dans la maison et de les voir chercher partout. C’est également une bonne méthode pour réduire leur ennui lorsque nous ne sommes pas à la maison. J’en possède 6 mais je pense en acheter d’autres à l’avenir pour être sûre d’en avoir pour toute la vie de mes chats.
