I’m absolutely fascinated by cardboard design and these new toys are one of the coolest designs I’ve seen. The Amazing Treat Machine Rollers are little cardboard toys that you put together from pre-punched cardboard. Each one holds a catnip packet (comes with the toys) and has a compartment for placing treats. When the toys roll across the floor, the treats fall out, enticing kitty to keep playing (at least until all the treats are gone).
The rollers come in a set of four in a cool little box that would make a great gift for any cat lover. You punch out the pieces and assemble the rollers. The design is truly brilliant and the instructions are pretty easy to follow. There’s even a video showing you how to assemble the rollers.
They sent us some rollers to test out and the cats like them as much as I do. Ando and Theo were the first to give them a sniff:
Then I made this little video. As you can see, Ando is the worst treat thief ever! I didn’t realize just how bad he is until I saw all the clips of him stealing treats. He’s terrible! And, yes, he did throw up promptly after making the video. Too many treats. (If you can’t see the video below in your email, click here to watch it on the site.)
The Amazing Treat Machine Rollers are $9.95 for a set of four and can be purchased online at AmazingTreatMachine.com or at Amazon.

My wee beasties would go wild for this! There are other treat-filled toys for dogs, but I haven’t seen much comparable for the feline breed.

Two of my three cats would love these! The third doesn’t like catnip but would probably still go for the rolling action!
October 28th, 2010 at 12:42 pm
Perfect for my hyper cats! I’ve been trying to figure out where to get something like this.
October 28th, 2010 at 12:45 pm
our Odette is just like Ando (in looks as well as treat-personality!) – would be great to get her engaged with these (might help keep her awake for more than 20 minutes per day!!)
October 28th, 2010 at 1:07 pm
Great idea!!! =D
Who said it was bad manners to play with your food!? lol
October 28th, 2010 at 1:25 pm

Fun, fun, fun!! How clever, too. I’m not sure if my kitty would go for it or not, but I know I would.

Great! one for each of us!
