Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Our vet recommended I get these feeders when I reached out to her in a panic because our cat was attacking everything in sight, including us. She explained that the cat has pent up hunting energy and needs to release it productively and in the right sequence (hunt, catch, kill, eat). So I bought the feeders and followed the instructions to start with the trainer. No good. Cat had zero interest. In desperation, I took one of the mice, just the fabric part, and filled it with food. I left it out overnight, and the food got eaten. I figured that was a good first step. After two nights of that, I inserted the plastic parts into all three mice, filled them, and hid them around the house before bedtime. In the morning, all had been found and eaten. Success! Our routine now is that we hide the mice when we go to bed, for overnight hunting, and again before leaving for work, for daytime hunting. We also feed some wet food at dinner time, but only after a play session in order to maintain the natural cat activity cycle. The cat is so much less aggressive, isn't meowing endlessly in the middle of the night, doesn't attack the plants or our feet, and generally seems happier. And it's only been a week and a half. I am truly amazed and grateful for this product!
