Play Instructions

• Start Easy: For first-time use, place treats at the entrance of the tubes or openings so your cat can discover and retrieve them easily, building confidence before increasing the difficulty.
• Hide Treats in Tubes: Place small treats or tiny toys inside the plug-in tubes so your cat must use their paws to push or pull them out through the tube opening during play.
• Adjust the Difficulty: Reposition or remove individual tubes to change the challenge level; removing tubes makes the game easier, while adding more tubes in different positions increases the difficulty.
