Most slow feeders simply slow eating by placing obstacles inside a bowl. The Catit Senses Digger is designed around a cat's natural digging and hunting instincts.

Instead of eating from a dish, your cat must:

Smell the food.
Look inside the cups.
Reach in with its paw.
Scoop out small portions.
Repeat the process until the meal is finished.

This transforms feeding into a mentally stimulating activity while naturally slowing food intake and encouraging exercise.

Many cats instinctively use their paws to retrieve food or treats, especially when food is hidden. In the wild, cats often reach into narrow spaces, under rocks, or through vegetation to catch prey.

The Catit Digger encourages this instinct in a safe, enriching way by letting your cat "dig" food out of vertical tubes instead of eating from an open bowl. This creates a more rewarding feeding experience while satisfying natural feline behaviour.

Yes.

The Digger is specifically designed to reduce binge eating by allowing your cat to retrieve only a few pieces of kibble at a time. This slower feeding pace can help reduce gulping, regurgitation, and digestive discomfort associated with eating too quickly. Many owners choose puzzle feeders like the Digger for cats that tend to finish meals within seconds.

The Catit Digger includes five removable cups in two different sizes:

3 short, narrow cups
2 taller, wider cups

This creates varying levels of difficulty, encouraging your cat to solve different challenges during the same meal. You can also rearrange which cups contain food to keep feeding sessions interesting and prevent boredom. The rounded cup edges are designed to be comfortable for your cat's paws.

Absolutely.

The Catit Digger is suitable for:

Dry cat kibble
Crunchy treats
Training treats

Many owners also hide small lightweight toys inside the cups to create additional enrichment and encourage exploratory play. Wet food is not recommended because the cups are designed for dry items.

Yes.

Indoor cats often miss the opportunity to hunt and forage naturally. The Digger encourages:

Digging
Paw coordination
Problem-solving
Hunting behaviour
Slower eating
Mental stimulation

This makes it an excellent enrichment product for apartment cats and indoor-only cats, which are increasingly common in India.

In many cases, yes.

Cats that naturally pull kibble out of bowls or "fish" for food with their paws often adapt quickly to the Digger because it builds on behaviour they already enjoy. Instead of trying to stop this instinct, the Digger channels it into a cleaner, more enriching feeding experience. Owners frequently report that cats understand the concept very quickly.

The Catit Digger features a wide, stable base that helps keep it in place during active play. The sloped surface guides loose kibble toward the front collection area instead of letting it scatter around the floor, making feeding tidier and encouraging your cat to keep working for the remaining food.

Yes.

Both the cups and the base can be removed for easy cleaning. Their smooth, rounded surfaces reduce food buildup, making routine maintenance quick and simple. The feeder is made from BPA-free materials, making it safe for everyday use.

Many inexpensive puzzle feeders offer only one level of challenge and become repetitive after a few days.

The Catit Senses Digger provides:

Five removable feeding cups
Two different cup sizes for varied difficulty
Rounded paw-friendly cup design
Stable anti-tip base
Sloped surface that collects loose kibble
BPA-free construction
Easy disassembly for cleaning
Compatibility with the Catit Senses enrichment ecosystem

Rather than simply slowing eating, it encourages natural foraging behaviour and keeps feeding sessions engaging over the long term.

Absolutely.

The Digger is particularly useful for Indian pet parents because it:

Helps indoor cats stay mentally active.
Reduces boredom in apartment living.
Slows down fast eaters without electricity or batteries.
Works with most premium dry cat foods available in India.
Is durable, reusable, and easy to maintain in warm climates.
