Another great choice
This is one (of 2) of the best treat dispensers we’ve ever had, and our cats love it! It’s very easy to fill and holds a decent amount of treats, but the best part is that the hole size is easily adjusted for different sizes of treats. It’s well made and -heavy so it wobbles like a Weeble.

Well made great idea I wish the cat would use it
It’s a 5 star product. Construction great , idea fantastic, except my cat does not play with it 🙁

Slows the cat down
I have a Temptations loving kitty who, if I put her treats down at once she’ll consume them as if she were a vacuum! Of course, she’s also spoiled and overweight so in my attempt to help her lose weight I purchased “Pengi”. It does take her some time to get to the treats but she is forced to take her time.

Heavy piece of plastic without room for treats
Canât believe this thing is actually marketable! Thereâs little to no room for treats or food at all. Plus, itâs difficult to open. Not for my cats!

A treat ball that works!
I read all the reviews before ordering, saved the directions on the package, opened the mouse up, put kibble in, and the boys play with it to get treats! Oscar & Levon are twins except that Levon is 15 lbs to his smaller brother’s 12 and he’s on a diet. So it figures he’d be the one more interested! The first time I put it down, I left the hole wide open so kibble would fall out and they could see how it dispensed food. Then I started making the opening more narrow. I put the mouse down between feedings when Levon starts meowing about an hour before mealtime. The mouse distracts him! It’s like a Weeble toy from when I was a kid–the bottom is heavily weighted and it wobbles back & forth. I pick it up when they’re not whacking it, because I’m afraid they’ll send it down the stairs.

This does what it’s supposed to.
I found this hard to put together and cleaning is not that easy. But it dispenses the food so the cat slows he’s eating. Not as good as a previous dispensar I had that was more like a weeble wobble egg, this spins and rolls around.

Bit of an awkward design
Bit awkward for filling. Maybe of interest to other cats but our two got bored with it quickly. It is also rather noisy on hardwood floors but that is to be expected.

Requires a bit of DIY with aggressively enthusiastic intelligent cats
We adopted a kitten from our local rescue and quickly discovered that he needed much more mental stimulation than all our previous cats. He’s also very treat/food oriented but he didn’t really care for just eating dry food from a bowl or many treats from our hands so we thought we’d give this a try.It’s easy to fill, put together, clean, etc. Perhaps too easy for our aggressively enthusiastic Tuxie, Spock. He had it apart in less than 30 seconds. He had picked it up and dropped it several times causing one of the 2 top sections to become dislodged. So, I taped the top sections together, refilled it and gave it back to him. Again he had it apart very quickly, in less than a minute. He had figured out how to pull the silicone ring up towards the head which is more narrow. As you can tell from the photos I had to resort to strips of duct tape to hold all 4 pieces together. It takes longer now to clean it and put it back together, but now he cannot just rip it open and empty it quickly.So, with the tape it takes him hours to empty it. I fill it with some of his dry food pieces and a few treats of different sizes. When he tires of working so hard to get them all out he goes to his bowl. We do have another type/style of play & dispense treat toy, and while he cannot get it apart he can get those treats out too fast so he enjoys this mouse more, even though he’s very rough on it. The silicone is the only part that he could break, but the duct tape will still keep it together. The low rating for durability is for this silicone ring. It is still an incredible value.

My cat absolutely loves this! Purchased this same product from a different store a few years ago, but now the band is starting to break. Now, it’s not found in stores. Was very glad to be able to finally get a replacement.

I donât like how you put the treats in it but it is robust and works well. My cats love it.

We have had a number of busy toys for our cat, but the problem with those was that our dog would steal them the second our backs were turned. If you forget that one of his enrichment/feeder toys is on the floor when you leave the house, forget it, it’s full of dents from dog teeth in a few minutes. This rolly mouse is one of our favourite new purchases because it’s sturdy and cheap enough to replace compared to his 30-dollar for a 3 pack. We accidentally kick this thing around all the time and it still looks new. I like that it’s heavy, I feel like it’s more of a workout for him than the old one. The only thing with that is if you have a small kitten or weak/older cat they might struggle to figure it out, even though once they do manage to move it even a little bit the thing will wobble wildly spewing out treats no problem.Would definitely recommend it.

The top part is two pieces and falls apart easily… makes no sense
