There are 3 of them. It has a diameter of 2". Baseballs are a bit larger than these.
There is a light green hue present in the picture. Regardless of its color, darker colored food or treats would still be visible through it. A similar way to describe the orange would be similar to how to describe
This was also an issue for us (not ants, but crumbs, which I cringed at). Several years ago, we had trouble getting the tops to remove from the speakers. We called the manufacturer, but one rep was clueless, and another said the tops came off only because of a small hole. So we mixed dawn with vinegar and water, and used pipe cleaners to clean the windows. It became so we would shake it, rotate the top to increase or decrease the feed holes, shake it once more, and use pipe cleaners to reach the areas we couldn't reach with a shaker. After that, we put it through a 'sanitary' cycle on the dishwasher. There were no signs of wear (or smell) and they resembled Please accept my sincere thanks!
The treats I got for Samson sat down in the sun and looked at them. Kirkland brand from Costco is what we use. In the small setting, this feeder works perfectly, and even when set to the largest setting, it will not overfeed. There are no grains in this product either. This is a good thing for kitty health.

Welp, my fat cat has now mastered the laziest method of retrieving food from this ball, and it only took her two days to do so. It does not surprise me at all. Not at all. Allow me to attach a photo so you can see what I mean. As he lays down, he uses his paw to roll the food in front of him back and forth and eats whatever falls to the ground. Knowing he would not fall for it should have been obvious. However, as long as he doesn't eat and throw up, it's up to him since he can't swallow and throw up at the same time. Adding exercise is not a great idea.
This summer the whole family is going on vacation, and our cat sitter will be coming up twice a day to take care of our cat, so we needed something that would keep the cats busy while everyone is away. Adding food to the ball was easy and it could be adjusted to the desired flow. As a way to keep the ball contained in one area, I bought a hamster loop track. Additionally, I used clear packing tape to cover the top and bottom of the box This track has a bottom so the food doesn't fall through the bottom and can be easily cleaned. As for our other cat, it still needed more training. Eventually, one cat figured out how to push the ball around to pull out the food. To make the ball even more appealing, I put some of their favorite treats in it with their dried food. They both got to pick one of their favorite toys from the middle of the loop. If the cat bumped the ball since it was getting a toy, food would spill and they would be encouraged to push and pat the ball around. It worked well for our cats who are not food-oriented, but one of them likes to be fed a certain time in the mornings and likes to graze throughout the day, and the snack ball works well for them. is the size of my hand, holds about a cup of food, and is easy to clean, although it must air dry, since you cannot wipe out the sliding mechanism on the door. definitely buy again if there was another hamster ball track to choose from.
I. About us In a regular diet of dry food, I would have to feed my cat from a can to avoid her becoming overweight. Our dog consumes only wet food for meals, but the dry kibble is reserved for occasional Previously, I had been using a small water bottle with a hole cut in the side so she could play with a "puzzle treat" in our kitchen, but I would like something that would be a little more stylish and wouldn't look like we had recycling around the house. This tiny ball was a great find! My cat came straight into the kitchen and started jumping and crying for it as soon as I started shaking It is a pretty small amount of dry kibble, so even the small holes allow a lot of food to escape. Masking tape is an easy way to cover up two of the three holes inside the box to make it more challenging. Although she still gets it out quickly as you can see in the video, it adds a little bit of a challenge that keeps her busy for While we are going out, I use this gadget to distract her from going back into the back room, which is a 'kitty proof' room to prevent her from getting into trouble.
I like how cute, inexpensive, and easy it is to use! In addition to the Northmate Catch Interactive Feeder for Cats, I bought this item as well, and here is a comparison of the two products for my cat (results may vary since cats are not all created equal). The PetSafe food dispenser ball is better to my cat (perhaps due to its ease of use), and he will always use that one first until it runs out of food. About ten minutes will be enough for him to empty that one The time is 30 minutes. He will only use the Northmate for 5 minutes before leaving and doing something else. Your translation of this sentence may not sound as good as my own. Because he can only take out one kibble at a time, he doesn't get too many in a 5 minute period, so he probably takes between 5 and 7 kibbles every 2 to 3 minutes It needs to be emptied 10 times before being completely empty. It lasts much longer, so he is less likely to wake me up too early in the morning for food by meowing and meowing. Adding to its convenience, the Northmate is also much easier to refill in the morning if you're in a hurry. Once you've emptied the scoop of kibble into the bowl, you're ready to go. For the food dispenser ball, the holes are rotated closed for filling, then opened again, then rotated again to find the optimal size holes, then set down again after. In order to make it challenging enough, it can sometimes be difficult to get just the right size opening for the kibble. In the morning I just give him food in the Northmate because he likes the ball so much. I usually split his food evenly between the two food puzzles at dinnertime and let him feed himself from both in the evening. Despite a greater level of ease for me and a greater degree of difficulty for the cat, I prefer the Northmate. As a result, it takes him longer to empty it, which helps him spread out his food and keeps him from being whiny around mealtime. Although, I like that I can use both products in the same house to offer variety, and he definitely likes the play food ball and it seems to be a big hit. As long as both are used for variety and stimulation, we'll keep using them both.
Videos of a frisky cat chasing these through the house showed the cat happily chasing them. After my cat realized that she could just bat at it, occasionally scooping some food into her mouth, she started making a new game for herself - like a giant, smarter cat It is better-than It's just an ordinary blob, really. Well, at least there is that. We use this as her "breakfast," so she has something to do all day since she is too lazy to try to unload the bowl. She no longer eats the kibble at a remarkable rate, and since we use this as her breakfast, she's always interested. The food she eats is high in fat and cholesterol I don't necessarily believe she needs anything to eat for dinner, so I just let her eat soft food for dinner instead of kibble. veterinarian suggested we give it a try, and after about four months, she has actually weight lost a little bit. The more I think about it, the more I want to buy one! LOL @(haha).
