Question 1

Would this work with non-standard treats (broken up dehydrated anchovies (he gets sick from standard treats)), or do the treats need to roll?  Also, if a 16+ pound cat sits or lays on this, will it hold up?

Accepted Answer

This treat maze would work with any shape treat, dry food, etc. The cat needs to push or pull pieces out through the various openings. So the only requisite for what you put into this toy is that the cat WANTS it!!! This toy will definitely take a 16 pound cat sitting on it. There are cardboard baffles inside the toy that also act as supports for the top. Our 13# kitty is pretty aggressive with this toy and we've had it for months with no problem. I highly recommend it!

Question 2

is this cardboard?

Accepted Answer

Yes it's cardboard, but very sturdy. I've had one for nearly a year now and bring it out twice to three times a week* for three cats playtime. It's got some stains from the oilier treats, but that doesn't matter structurally. They love it and it doesn't have any dents, bends or breaks in it yet.*Cats are like small children in that if you put something away they next time you bring it out it's "like new" - to them. :-)

Question 3

One of my two cats likes to bite and chew paper and cardboard.  Will this toy last with him?

Accepted Answer

Well that depends on how much your cat likes to chew on cardboard. We have 5 and our young male loves exercising his teeth on card board during his growth spurts. He had chewed on this puzzle box and left teeth marks...but he hasn't torn it up. Now we let them play with it for a week and then put it away for a few weeks so they don't get bored with it. So I'd say as long as you have plenty of other stuff for them to chew on (we've even gone as far as making ours a roll of cardboard sticks) and put this puzzle box away when you see them chewing on it, it should be safe. Just so you know the puzzle box it's super thick cardboard - it's thin and rigid, it's not super flimsy. I hope this helps.

Question 4

How does it work with two cats who get along with each other or should I get two of them?

Accepted Answer

I actually have 3 cats who get along well with each other and 2 are kittens, 1 is 10 years old. They play together perfectly, and also sometimes alone. It has worked out well and is fun to watch them trying to get the treats out. In short, I think 1 would be fine. If you find it doesn't work out for some reason, you can always come back and buy another one. ;)
