Enrichment for kitties using treats


Enrichment for kitties can be fun.. the lure:



Muffin! Get out of the way.. 

It is good to find ways to mentally stimulate your kitties and if your kitty is food motivated - like six out of the seven cats I own - using a toy to hide food in so they have to forage for it is a good way to get their brains working.

The puzzle:


Every time I so much as touch this toy I immediately get a lot of interest because they are pretty sure that my just touching it makes it issue forth yummy goodness.

Yes, this is relevant to our interests..

Fleurp is no fool, she runs off with hers once she digs it out
Kit's Turn.. 
And Muffin swoops in for the steal.
I gave Kit her own piece, she decided to mark it before eating it
(not sure that would prevent the others from stealing it though)

  7. We have that puzzle!! It was for Doodle. She never solved it. Rocky, however, solved it in 91.4 seconds and ate everything. -Crepes.

  8. In checking in on the dropcam, it sure looks like that wicker basket might be Mama's bed of choice to birth the kittens. Watching both you and Robyn's often.

  9. Those look like excellent noms. We all like salmon. Mom needs to get some items that make us forage for our food as some of us are a bit overweight. All these photos are so super cute! We have selected you for the Very Inspiring Blogger Award. You can pick it up on our Friday post at The Cat on My Head.
