Title: Anyone tried the Catmosphere?
Post by: Mark on July 10, 2010, 15:19:28 PM
I ordered one for Kylie but she is terrified of it. It is quite big. Maybe I need to adjust the hole, but as it rolls around, the treats keep falling out.

These cats seem to get it.

I got one for dexter and cartman thinking that at least when we are out they can get treats. You do have to adjust the hole size for whiever treats you put in so they dont all fall out at one. However my two dont play and roll it to get the treats out but just try and get their paws in  :tired:

I like the look of the Catmosphere!  ;D Noah has the Slimcat ball which he likes, but it hasn't been out for ages as he is having wet food only for the summer.

I'm just wondering if it can be adjusted so only 1 or 2 treats can come out at a time. Memphs loooooves his Whiskas treat ball. I only put a few in and ends up doing a few laps of downstairs. It really does get his brain working. That one looks fun, I'm just wondering if it's as effective as the normal treat balls.

It's a bit expensive if all the food comes out in 1 or 2 goes.

Is it really bad that I would consider the pink over the black  :scared:

Den, you can adjust the hole size so that it makes it easier or harder for treats to fall out. Takes a few attempts to get it just right though! And I am sure memphs would love a pink one  :evillaugh:

Ooooo thank you. That's perfect .. I like making things difficult for him  :evillaugh: I got my Collie one of the Nina Ottossen (sp?) interactive toys. As she's a little Einstein I got her the hardest one. Memphs decided to investigate it alongside her. He figured it out in a nano second whereas she spent a moment working it out  :scared:
