So pleased we bought this
We needed to slow down our cats eating and this does the job very well. She learned how to use it very quickly, except the goldfish bowls, which we now take off for her to chase around the floor. It is very sturdy, easy to keep clean and worth the money.
Useless if you have a cat with big paws!
My rescue, Sparky, wasn't neutered until he was about 3 years old so is a broad boy with big paws that struggles to fit into any of the bowls/gaps/etc of this toy.
Going to give it to a neighbour who's adopting a kitten soon and hopefully it might get some use and will update my review.

Great intro to interactive toys!
At first glance I actually thought it would be too easy for them. The board was bigger than expected and I thought the gaps would be very easy for them to get to. Within seconds they’d gotten a treat, and I thought it would be over in minutes. Boy was I wrong! Some things are just easier than others, and they had a good half hour on it before they got everything. (Bare in mind there’s two of them at it!) The fish bowls were torture for Calvin, he just couldn’t understand it bless him!
Sturdy and challenging
Both of my cats had to put some effort to get the treat :) Most challenging are jars - cats managed to take out some of the treats, but left a few as got bored after several attempts. Overall good product, sturdy and quite heavy, so cats won't flip it over.

Amazing
My kitten really enjoys play with it

Perfect for elderly cats!
I have an 18 year old cat with multiple health problems including epilepsy. She is very food orientated & will do anything for thrive chicken treats. This keeps her busy for at least 20 minutes at a time. She has arthritis, but, this is helping keep her legs less stiff & certainly her mind active. When she has finished, my tiny Burmese polishes off the rest. It is also too small for my Maine coon to get his paws into - so, can we have one for the larger kitties too please? Slots are very narrow.

Good training
Milo found difficult to get food/treats from the board for a couple of days, but he kept trying, and now he became an expert getting his rewards from the of the tasks. Still shy to get around the little bowls and the raised individual compartments.
Great entertaining fun
Brought this to entertain my two indoor cats and they love it!

Peeks Interest Occasionally
We wanted to get more toys that my (then 10 month old) mini panther could amuse himself with when he is home alone. I find it works well and it is used only if not left out for long periods. I bring it out only occasionally, otherwise he is not interested and just totally ignores it.
Brilliant and robust
This activity board slowed Achilles right down at mealtime. He used to gulp down his dry food and this board gives him stimulation and is better for his digestion; we noticed a difference straight away. He can’t scoop trays out of the bowls, but has figured out that he can pick up the whole tray and shake out any treats he can’t reach. At around 1kg the tray is very stable but our little brute manages it anyway!
works fairly well
The cats never managed to get the food from the middle of the board or the round containers but otherwise it worked well

The Cats love it
good quality product and both my Siamese cats love 'pawing' their way through the different board parts to get some extra food treats.

Stupid cat
Disappointed with my cat's reaction. He will retrieve treats from the zigzag and wave areas but only made one attempt to get food from the bells and didn't like the experience. The thought using his tongue to get treats out did not occur to him. Have tried to encourage him but he is not interested in making the effort.

Bit too clever for his own good
Stan was trained on homemade activity boards with sunken yoghurt pots & stacked toilet roll tubes. He likes his food & quickly got the hang of them so was progressed onto this. Thought he might struggle as he's not exactly dainty but BOOM!! Was straight in on all the challenges, no problems at all. Funny as he's not into regular cat toys, but this was like watching a master at work. Does slow him down enough for our other furrball to enjoy his food in peace.

Not good for stupid cats
I bought this as it looked really good but clearly I have a bit of a stupid cat. He couldn't figure out half of the sections and if I put biscuits in the section with spikes he'd stick his head in it trying to get it, we were terrified he was going to cause damage to his face shoving his eye on a spike! He also has fat paws and struggled to pull biscuits out of the sections. We gave it away in the end, so do think about your cats intellect before purchasing.

Excellent concept
I love the concept of this. However my two kittens are just not interested. They sniff and move on no matter what tempting treats I use. Hoping when they get older it will be more useful
play tray
it took some time for my cat to figure it out , but now can get the food out of the plastic balls etc which has slowed her eating down

😻😻😻😻 cats approval
All of my 4 cats love this the bowls are a bit of a challenge for them but they watch each other and learn how to get them out, good team work 😹

MY KITTIES LOVE THIS!!! EXCELLENT PRODUCT!!!
It improves cognitive function and dexterity. One can keep an eye on elderly cats in declining health by simply observing how they use this feeder. In fact, my cats are all rather obsessed with it, they prefer to have their biscuits hidden in and around the board as opposed to thrown into their bowls. Also, and just as important, is that the cats have to work for their food and are less likely to gobble the lot up in seconds, thus resulting in far less vomiting afterwards. Brilliant!

Great
My tomcat loves this thing, but he figured everything out after just 5 minutes. Now he's working on perfecting it.

30 x 40 cm - Trixie Cat Activity Fun Board
Feeding game
Different levels and openings, fun but it gets messier because there’s no raised edge! But he or she has to put in more effort for the reward...

Simply brilliant
We now only feed dry food using this puzzle feeder. The reason was that my tomcat used to gulp down his food and often vomited afterwards. We've been using this puzzle feeder for years and haven't had any problems like that since. The cats stay active and have to do a bit of work to get to their food. When they take out the pieces one by one, they actually chew and eat much more slowly. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to keep their cat a bit more active.

great fun :)
My two haven’t been with me for very long yet, and let’s just say they’re a bit different when it comes to how quick they are :). Cleo picks things up faster and gets bored with the easy obstacles pretty quickly. Mango needs a bit more time and you have to give a hand :). But both of them stay busy for quite a while. In the long run, it makes sense to have a second board if you’ve got two cats who stick together as much as mine do :).

Good starter
This was our little one's first puzzle board and she's been using it regularly and happily ever since. She's very food-motivated, so she's always up for any game involving treats. She figured this one out for the first time after just 10 minutes and now raids it easily on a regular basis. Whether it's Churus, pastes or solid treats – it works really well! Since we have a 'normal' house cat, I can't say how well it would work for larger breeds.

Perfect as a starter!
This was my cats' first activity board and they still love it! It's also big enough for both of them to play with at the same time.

Fantastic product in poor packaging
A product loved by cats, but it's constantly left unsecured in the package and ends up spilled and wasted. The cats love it, but after it got damaged several times during transport, I won't order it again—it's just a waste of money.

The cat likes it but...
The cat likes them, but it annoys me that these treats are always scattered all over the box. For some time now, I've noticed the packaging of the parcels has gotten worse and I'm filing a complaint. If it's not the litter that's damaged and spilled, then it's the treats. I'd prefer my kitty to eat the biscuits from the original packaging, not picked out from the cardboard box. They should also be somehow secured against opening, because unlike Cosma, there's no foil on them. I would have given 5 stars, but I have to deduct some. I like the Zooplus shop because of its wide range, but these parcels...

30 x 40 cm - Trixie Cat Activity Fun Board
Great game to keep your cat entertained indoors
My recently adopted cat (+3 years old) was a total newbie when it came to intelligence puzzles. At first, she didn’t get it at all, but a month later she’s a real pro and already ready for her second Trixie puzzle (brain mover). She used to stick her nose into everything, but now she’s super skilled and even fishes everything out of the little bowls. Just put some snacks in and they’ll keep themselves busy. It’s great to watch and also a lovely way to bond with a regular puzzle-filling moment, so I definitely recommend it!

Super cute plate
My cats Susu and Kopi are busy trying to get the treats out, and they manage to do it—even from the little pots. It's so much fun to watch them 😍

Cosma alternative!
I was looking for something similar to the Cosma freeze-dried treats, which my cats no longer want to eat (the quality has gone down). I bought Thrive to try and my cats go crazy for them. Easy to crumble and sprinkle over food. I recommend!

Didn't excite or activate either of our Birmans
A huge disappointment. They managed to fiddle the food pellets out of the transparent "bowls" a couple of times, but after that neither cat was interested in the board at all.

A nice, good-quality product
Overall, the product is nice and does its job well. If I had to find a downside, it would be its bulkiness: it's quite heavy and takes up a fair bit of space, both in terms of size and weight. This can make it a bit less convenient to move around or store.
On the other hand, the quality is definitely there, which more than makes up for this minor drawback.

My cat loves it
My cat loves this treat. It’s their favourite and it seems much healthier to me than all the others I’ve found in supermarkets.

Snacks great, lid a flop!
The newly ordered snacks are very well received, but I was disappointed with the lid of the tube—about a quarter of the snacks had spilled out into the Zooplus box because the lid was faulty. The lid is far too loose and opens on its own when lying down, so I really hope this isn’t the new standard for the tubes... That’s why I’m only giving 4 stars.
