PetSafe SlimCat Food Dispensing Toy

Two types of holes for different sized kibble with adjustable openings is fantastic. My cat has been chasing it relentlessly. Great product.

Great item and keeps my cat entertained.

This is a replacement for one I’d (my cat) had been using for about six years, broken as the door slammed in to it. This is the best treat and exercise ball for any 🐈‍⬛. Sometimes I leave the treats quite large which makes him work harder for them, used every single day, he loves playing with it. He still has another one which was bought along with the one now broken but I’ll replace it when I find a different colour than blue. Fabulous product, hardwearing, easy to clean and worth every penny.

I think the only thing learnt here is my cat figured out if she ignored it enough, i'd spent time fake playing and getting treats for her. I was, essentially, trained by my cat as opposed to the other way round.

I purchased this ball after the vet told us to try something like this to get the cat to lose some weight. "Yeah right, there is no way she'd use this" I didn't think she would be up to using this to be honest, she's not one for bought toys. HOWEVER It has proven to be a big success as far as usage (god knows if she's lost weight though). It took her a little while (10 mins) to realise that there was food popping out. Now as soon as I pick it up she knows its dinner time and straight away starts to bat it about or push it with her nose (sometimes she plays with it, thinking there is food inside, stupid but funny). It's a simple design where you chose 1 of 2 hole sizes and when the ball rolls about, the food comes out. The holes are ok, perfect for the type of food I use but I dare say there are some bigger kibble sizes so check it out first (size of 5p should be enough). So what is the big success then? It's the reduction of the cat spewing up in my opinion!!! Before she's was always sick because she ate the food out the bowl too fast, like a dog. However now that she's eating one kibble at a time, the carpet cleaning has gone down by 90% (no joke). I have seen her give up eating half way though as I think she is feeling a little fuller only eating one bit at a time. Fine by me... The only warning I'd give about this: Don't leave it somewhere where it will roll under a sofa or something the cat cant reach (or even you). A few times I've filled it up before going to work, just to come back to a hungry cat because she knocked it under the sofa......LOOK ITS NOT MY FAULT SHE'S PLAYFUL OK!!! STOP JUDGING ME!!!! Design 10/10 Colour: orange/orange Ease of usage for Human: easy/easy Ease of usage for cat: easy/easy Chance of cat puking on the floor and being forced to eat it up again like a ravenous dog: hardly/omg I need a new floor... buy this

I actually bought this years ago but just started using it - good value and lasted years, obviously. The vet has recommended a regime to help him lose and a slow feeder is one of them. Now this is his only way to get dry food. I feel so bad for him going from an abundance of food laid out for his leisurely enjoyment whenever he wants to this, but it seems to be working. Poor little guy

The cat worked out what she had to do fairly easily, and managed to get her treats. I would have preferred if there weren't so many holes to make it more difficult, but maybe I'm being mean! 4 stars not 5 as it's fairly expensive for what it is.

This is a great little product and easy to use for the human. The bottom of the ball just twists off, you place the dried munchies inside the ball, twist the cap back on, decided how big the holes in the ball need to be to allow the muchie through and then lock it in place. Couldn't be simpler. My two cats were bouncing up and down to be fed so I rolled the ball towards them (little munchies falling away from the ball as I did) and cats did a bunk out of the cat door! They came back in, sniffed the ball, decided it was no threat then settled down for a kip. Lesson to human, they are as conditioned as I am in that when they hear my car pull up, it's feeding time, hungry or not. I decided to leave them to it and not put food down, after all, a 7kg cat who can work out that the pack of dried food is kept in the top cupboard and manages to open the door, knock the huge bag to the floor and tear through it for a midnight feast for him and his brother can definitely work out how to knock a ball around, right? Wrong! I have decided that my 6 year old moggies have become too used to silver service and that's why they are so overweight and idle. The product is good, it rolls with the lightest of touch even when filled with food and it seems sturdy enough. I can't blame the Slimcat ball - one of us is burning calories chasing it round the carpet and two of us are looking on bemused. Meanwhile, it's a waiting game to see who caves in first . . . . Follow up to my review: Last night I made the moggies go hungry because they turned their noses up at their usual good quality dinner and hey presto! In the morning the ball - which had been hanging around since last week - was empty! So I haven't got moronic moggies, just lazy ones, the ball works.

This is the best toy to attract your cat and let him eat treats! My cat doesn't like when I'm going you of house. Everytime, when I'm trying to go out somewhere, my cat 'meows', like he is worry that I'm leaving. With this toy cat has to use his paws to move the ball and make the treats going out of the ball. Also because of that, he is busy for next 5-10 minutes, so I can leave the house and I don't have to expose my cat to sadness because of my leaving :D I do recommend this ball for every cat owner!

القطوه سحبت عليها ولا تعرفت على اللعبه ، ممكن تنفع اذا عندك قط ذكي او يحب يلعب مع نفسه

These are excellent for your indoor kitty, particularly one who may be a little too tubby. My guy came from the shelter and ate more than his share during his prolonged stay, so he was quite large. He didn't really understand it at first, but after a few weeks, he was tossing it around, bounding after the kibble that came shooting out, and still has a grand ole time each day when fed. I'd recommend buying more than one, as I had many a morning searching for the only ball when it got batted under the couch or other such hard to find place. The holes can be adjusted for different sized kibbles, or just to make it easier or more challenging to get it out. It's also a great way to slow down a cat that eats too quickly and promptly gets sick. Only a few pieces come out at a time. The fact that it allows them to chase their food plays into their instincts too. Great product!

Nuestra gata tiene problemas con la comida desde que la esterilizaron; come con ansiedad y vomita acto seguido, siempre está buscando más comida y se come la comida de la otra gata. Probamos muchas maneras de intentar que se conforma con menos comida, pues tiene sobrepeso, y de que comiera más despacio, sin buenos resultados. Hasta que dimos con esta bolita. La gata disfruta sacando el pienso del dispensador, come mucho más despacio y le da tiempo a cerrar el estómago y quedarse satisfecha con dosis más bajas de alimento. Vomita muchísimo menos y está claramente más feliz. Un triunfo. P.D.: Para que no se comiera la comida de su compañera, se la pusimos en un mueble alto, al que la otra no tiene problema en subir, pero como esta está gordita y es muy cauta, no se sube. Otro triunfo xD

Gracias a este producto mi gato se entretiene con la comida, y la mejor parte, come lento Desafortunadamente mi otro gato no le gusto, no entiende como funciona
