How It Works
The Kong Kitty Kong is made of lightweight material and is constructed for dispensing treats and encouraging exercise. The rubber material and construction of the toy allow an unpredictable bouncing effect that keeps your cat interested and active. Your cat will love being rewarded for playing when they randomly get their favorite kibble or treats as the toy bounces around the room. The bouncing action allows your cat to engage in their natural hunting instincts too.
When filling the toy with treats, be sure to leave some slack so the treats can easily come out of the opening in the toy. If the Kong is overfilled, the treats can get stuck and frustrate your cat.
In addition to treats and kibble, you can add some catnip to the treat to make the playtime more enjoyable.
