TRIXIEFun Board Strategy Game for Cats, Puzzle Toy, Treat Dispenser, Interactive Play, Mental Stimulation

This product is wonderful! Recently my vet told me to put my cat, Precious, on a diet. Well, she's been driving me nuts begging for more food. She's also older and is sleeping more than she used to (she's about 9) and I've been wanting her to get a little more active. I tried a feeding ball, but she figured it out quickly and empties it in a couple of minutes (still a good starting point, but I needed to prolong the feeding time to cut down on begging). I kept researching other food puzzles, but I really liked that this has 5 puzzles and seemed the most creative. I've had this product for about a week. The price is steep, but worth it. High quality, doesn't seem likely to break easy, fairly heavy too. I was worried my cat would tip it or something by standing on it, but the puzzle is sturdy and has stood up well to her 11 and a half lbs. Her paws also fit inside each puzzle even thogh she's chunky. She hasn't been able to get at the treats by "cheating" with her mouth either on 4 of the puzzles. Most are meant for your cat to use her paw, hearing and sense of smell to get the treats off the board, one is for cat to lap up liquid treats.As for puzzle itself, here's the deal with each of the 5 puzzles:1. Alley: This is a round tunnel deep enough when you hide treats my cat has to stretch her paw far inside to get the treats in the middle. She really likes the alley and runs from side to side with her tail quivering as if she's hunting as she searches for treats.2. Liquid treats: This is the blocks on top of the alley. It's meant for liquid treats so your cat has to lick them up, but from the instruction book it's not as easy as normal since they're smaller square blocks. Also supposed to be good for blind or disabled pets. I don't have any liquid treats to interest my cat yet, so she hasn't tried this one yet.3. Waves: This is the first one my cat figured out. Pretty simply, all she has to do is one or two paw swipes down the middle and she gets the treats. Once she solved this one she was much more interested in the puzzle so I'm glad there's a fairly straightforward puzzle.4. Pegs: this is difficult and my cat hasn't finished figuring it out yet. You put treats in among the pegs, and they're set up so your cat has to do multiple paw swipes to get the treats out from the board. She's pretty good if you make the puzzle simpler by putting the treats near the edge of the puzzle board, but has trouble with the ones in the center. She did solve it last night and ate all the treats on the peg board, so she seems to be catching on.5. Globes: This is the hardest one, and my cat's still working on it. Precious has to put her paw into the globe, feel for a treat, and scoop it out of the globe and onto the floor so she can eat it. She's had a few successes, but still having some trouble.Pros:5 puzzles in one platform, each differing in difficulty. Difficulty also adjusted by placing food nearer to edge or further away. I divide up her hard food so she gets some food throughout the day until I'm home and can feed her. When I'm home my cat plays and snacks on a few kibbles, then wanders away seeming satisfied. My cat doesn't beg anymore and she's more active when I watch her play and get treats. She seems to be enjoying herself too.Disadvantages:The price is very expensive for a cat toy. on the other hand, the quality is good so I don't feel cheated. Since 5 puzzles involved price works out to be reasonable for each seperate puzzle. Also the board is a little bulky in my small apartment. Size about 12''x14 1/2'' (not huge, but my place is small.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I have a 3.5-month-old kitten named Rebelution, and he is incredibly smart—this Trixie Fun Board has been such a great enrichment tool for him! He’s already figured out most of the compartments and obstacles pretty quickly, which honestly impressed me. The globes are still a challenge for him, but that’s okay—I actually love that he hasn’t mastered everything yet. It gives him something to come back to.This is perfect for keeping him mentally stimulated after breakfast, during midday check-ins, or as a calm-down activity in the evening. He gets to work for his favorite treats, and I get to enjoy watching him problem-solve and engage with something that really meets his intelligence level.Thank you for creating something that’s not just entertaining, but also helps my kitten build focus, confidence, and skill!

The media could not be loaded. My very smart, food-motivated senior took to this immediately. Within 3 days, he was eating dry food along with treats from every puzzle. Within a week, he would sit by it and stare at me, his way of asking to play some more. My younger play-motivated cat is not as bright and has only taken to the tunnel, with lots of encouragement. The board is very sturdy, does not seem like it will break easily. Also easy to wash. I keep it on a rug but the weight and rubber feet would keep it from sliding on tile/wood floor too. The only things I don’t like 1) I wish some of the rigid plastic pieces were made of or coated in silicone, because sometimes my senior bites the prongs and I worry about him injuring his mouth. 2) the tunnel has thin vertical supports inside that their claws get caught on. I’m sure this helps with structure but again, I worry about injury. I would not let cats play unattended. If your cat doesn’t take to it right away, push the treats into an easy to reach spot/make sure they get a reward for trying to encourage more play. It didn’t take mine long to make a positive association with it. Overall, I would recommend this if your cat gets bored or needs a challenge to slow down overeating.

The media could not be loaded. My cats absolutely love this! It’s their first treat puzzle. I used Temptations treats in it. I am really surprised that 2 of the 3 figured it out so quickly! One cat doesn’t quite understand yet, but she’s watching her sisters, so I’m sure she’ll learn soon. The treat board is large enough to accommodate multiple cats playing together, it is heavy enough that it doesn’t get moved around and it also has non-skid feet on the bottom. It’s easy to clean and there is a variety of obstacles for the cats to overcome to get their reward. Now they are working for their treats! It’s entertaining for them and I am enjoying watching them solve the puzzle. I definitely recommend this toy! (And yes, they are on my dining room table… otherwise my dog would steal their treats! I promise, it’s washable)
