Difficulty Progression: Begin by placing treats in the most accessible spots. As your cat becomes proficient, hide treats in deeper or more challenging compartments to maintain engagement and interest.

Benefits of Puzzle Feeders
Interactive puzzle toys like the Buggin Out game provide essential mental stimulation that indoor cats need to thrive. By engaging natural hunting and foraging instincts, puzzle feeders reduce boredom-related behaviors such as excessive meowing, destructive scratching, or overeating. The problem-solving aspect keeps cats mentally sharp, particularly beneficial for senior cats maintaining cognitive function. Additionally, the physical activity required to access treats provides gentle exercise that supports overall health and wellbeing.
Care Instructions
Cleaning: Wash with warm soapy water after each use to remove food residue and prevent bacterial growth. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before refilling. The smooth plastic surface makes cleaning quick and easy.
Maintenance: Inspect regularly for cracks or damage. Replace if any pieces become loose or broken to ensure safety.
Storage: Store in a clean, dry location when not in use. Keep away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
Safety Information
Always supervise your cat during initial use to ensure they understand how to use the puzzle safely. Remove the toy if your cat becomes frustrated or aggressive. In multi-cat households, monitor to prevent food guarding or competition. Ensure treats or kibble are appropriate size to prevent choking hazards.
Size and Compatibility
This puzzle toy is suitable for cats of all sizes and ages. The varied compartment depths accommodate different skill levels, making it appropriate for both puzzle beginners and experienced problem-solvers.
