This is a fun toy for the cats, but I thought I was very dumb for not understanding why it wasn't working. If you don't have the lid put on perfectly, and connected the right way, it won't dispense food or make noise. I think this is a nice challenging toy for my cats because they have to think a little bit more before they can get their treats. Overall I'd recommend, but if it's not working, take the plastic orb off and try putting it on again.

Bad stuff first- it distributes a LOT of food, even adjusting the window size, a lot of food spits out. In order to not be giving my cats 100 treats at a time, i used a dry food they've never had so they thought it was treats, but its just food.- sometimes the ball stops rolling on the sensor and the thing goes off repetitively until you move the ball out of the sensorGood stuff- it does come with different size windows so you can distribute different size treats/food- it works!

Bottom Line:- unsure if i would get again or recommend.Pros:- multiple size options for the ‘passthrough’ of the food- a single charge seems to last quite a while; it has been 15 days since i charged it and my cat uses it almost every day, if not multiple times every day.- cat is actually interested in it.- build quality or quality of the materials seems good.Cons:- even though there are multiple options for the door/opening size for the food to come out, it seemed like either no food came out, or tons of food came out, when changing sizes. Not sure if a different method would have worked better, like a hinged/covered opening where the spinning of the food would be able ‘push’ the ‘door/covering’ open?- one time, my cat decided to ‘empty’ the entire thing and eat it all in one sitting.- another time, my cat decided to just ‘empty’ it all onto the floor and leave it.- other times, my cat just ignores it, even if there are treats inside versus normal dry cat food.- sometimes the item will randomly dispense food (spin) without any provocation/interaction.- note: not all food will be dispensed, as there is always some left over, as the design requires there to be some food to push out other food. So if you wanted to portion control your cat, it would be hard with this device, as there isn’t enough always some left over and the cat is unable to get it out.Other comments:- I would NOT recommend this for storing ‘cat treats’.- I would recommend this to be used for regular dry cat food, provided you do not care how much they eat from it. Just plan that your cat may eat it all; or at least, all that is able to be dispensed.- not sure i would buy again. I would at least look at other options.

Our cats love this toy. One in particular loves spinning the balls around in the circle. the other cats love the treats.

The Electric Interactive Cat Feeder is a 2-in-1 slow feeder and track ball toy designed to promote healthy eating and mental stimulation for your cat. In theory, it’s brilliant—turn mealtime into playtime and help your cat shed a few pounds. In practice? Well, that depends on whether your cat is Einstein in fur or just stubbornly lazy.The idea is for your cat to bat at a ball to release a treat, but the clever-yet-complicated design can be challenging for less curious kitties. The dispenser's noise might also spook skittish cats (or drown out your Netflix binge). For those who figure it out, it’s great for slow feeding and mental stimulation. Just be prepared for some cats to cheat by sticking their paw into the sensor or shooting you a look that says, “You want me to work for my food?”

Received this cat toy with treat dispenser as part of the Vine review program. I got this toy as a gift for my best friend's cat who, at 25 lbs (yes!), needs to drop a few pounds. Poor Lucas the Cat could best be described as The Whale of the feline world. Lucas is big, shy, and intimidated by changes. So his mom charged this toy, loaded it with a new low-calorie diet catfood bits, and sat on the floor to show Lucas the toy wasn't a monster out to eat him.After a couple of hours, Lucas the Cat had finally managed to get this contraption to eject one kibble of food. He was tired, and hungry.Needless to say, there is a learning curve. So if your cat isn't a member of MENSA or has a low attention span typical of a teen watching TikToks? This may not be the best toy for kitty.Sure, it alleviates lonliness by getting the cat's owner to spend hours laying on the floor trying to teach the cat how to get out a treat. As for non-owner interaction alleviating a cat from pining away? Not this toy.So results will vary. If you have a border collie, he'll be dismantling this toy, noshing on all the treats, and building a robot out of the parts.As for my friend's whale of a cat, Lucas? Maybe the hours of interaction on the floor will alleviate his fear, bordom eating, and lonliness.Like: It dispenses treats if your cat is a MENSA member.Dislike: Not all cats will be able to join MENSA.Would I buy: if I had a cat who was picked by Elon to join the DOGE team? Probably. Or a cat who loved toy interaction? Sure.

Maybe the design is not so intuitive for my cat, or maybe it’s just that he’s not a big fan of the “spin the ball around the tower” type of toys. He managed to activate the feeder twice after we demonstrated it a few times, but then he lost interest or couldn’t figure out how to do it again.The food comes out the front of the feeder and some tends to get stuck underneath the UFO, requiring some digging (bonus slow feeding?). The area that the ball needs to activate is in the back, so the cat needs to hit it pretty hard to make a full rotation. Otherwise, the ball stays in the back and cat may not notice it again, or it may not go far enough to activate the feeder. Dispensing also makes a mechanical noise that may startle the cat at first.
