3D model description

This is a pet enrichment toy, it is intended to make the act of foraging more stimulating for your animal.

Simply put a treat or morsel under each of the sliders then give the toy to your pet and leave it to them to work out how to retrieve the treats.

The design is based on something I saw for a small dog, although I've recreated it for my pet rats. I imagine it would be equally suitable for other rodents and perhaps parrots.

I would like to be able to say my rats have shown a real aptitude for problem-solving...
however, the sad truth is most of their success with this toy has been down to perseverance and dumb luck! That notwithstanding, it's been entertaining to watch all the same :)

Enjoy!

Update:
I have added two additional Spinners. The Spinners now come with one, two, or three slider slots in them. The fewer slots the greater the difficulty level... or maybe not.
