Cat Amazing Treat Maze Puzzle Box

Cat Amazing is a cardboard box full of walls and holes, and the treats go inside, where a curious paw has to work to get them out. Your cat has to fish each one out, scratching, sniffing and reaching through the openings, which is a lot more fun to watch than a cat eating from a bowl. It’s the puzzle box that got famous on Shark Tank.

There are three difficulty levels, so you can start easy and make it harder as your cat catches on. It doesn’t have to be treats either: catnip, crinkle balls and toy mice work too, and it can double as a slow feeder for a cat who inhales snacks. The box is made from 100% recyclable cardboard and printed with certified metal-free inks. The company even jokes that watching might tempt you to drop in a few pretzels and try it yourself.

It suits an indoor cat with energy to burn and an owner who likes watching their pet think. It’s also an easy, low-cost gift when you don’t know someone’s home well enough to buy them cat furniture.

The catch: it’s cardboard, so a determined scratcher will wear it down over time. It also only works as well as what you put inside, so a cat who shrugs at treats may shrug at the maze too.
