Plus, it provides a bit of a challenge to them, therefore combatting having a bored kitty - a large problem with indoor cats. |

Because of the ease of getting the food out I usually fill these up with their regular kibble and let them use it to get some or all of their morning meal-definitely more fun and more active than the usual hovering over the bowl.
Instead of giving each of my cats their own treat ball, I've started to put one treat ball out at a time-it makes it more challenging and fun for them to have to chase and battle for access to the treat ball (assuming your cats get along as well as ours do.) They make it like a game of soccer, and its very funny to see them trying to steal the ball from each other and to block the ball from being stolen while they chomp down the food that they have earned. One of my cats even has figured out how to "guard" the ball by sitting on it while he is busy eating the treat that fell out. Another has perfected the "swat". |

Unfortunately, she has no interest even with her favorite treats inside. My other, more curious and active cat loves it and will roll and roll the ball until empty. Note: Don't fill up at before bed, will keep you up all night! |

After a few minutes he had the thing figured out and was dispensing his supper gradually. A great distraction for a food oriented cat. A little tricky to fill, and dispenses small round food pellets best. |

Woszczyna | 2 | 2 | 4 | 1236124800 | Better than eating out of a bowl | I use this with regular dry cat food instead of putting it all into a bowl. With some cat food (like the Royal Canine Allergy versions) it's not quite so trivial to get the food out - maybe 1/2 hour to get a 1/6 of a cup out of one of these. Cat seems to enjoy the activity.
With smaller round-shaped cat food (Wellness), the food comes out too easily. |

After I had ordered the 2-pack for around $7 with shipping, I found a 4-pack at the 99¢ store, so I felt that I paid too much.
The design makes it difficult to put the two halves back together once you have loaded the food or treats.
I would recommend cutting a small hole in a tennis ball. That is what I have done and my cat seems to like it better.
If you still want this product, let me know, I'd be happy to send it to you for the price of the shipping. |

The balls came in a package of 2 and upon trying to open one of the balls to put the treats in, the plastic broke. So, I filled the 2nd one and it took her about 5 minutes to get all the treats out. I think she enjoyed it though, so will continue to use it. Any little challenge is better than none for this smart kitty. Why do they make cat toys out of such cheezy materials? |

He loves this thing. As for me, I think it's a simple decent product that does what it's supposed to. The opening is relatively large, but I use it with a larger kibble like Max Cat ([...]) , or if using it with smaller kibble I use masking tape to make the opening smaller. There's a similar product on the market with a variable-sized opening thhat i haven't yet tried, but this one works fine as long as it's with larger-sized kibble. Easy to open and clean. |

I love this idea - why did I never think of this until I got a puppy and a similar toy for him? Unfortunately, my 4 year old lazy kitties don't seem as interested as I would hope - they like to eat the treats that fall out when I shake it, but they won't chase the ball themselves. Are they too dumb to figure it out? Too lazy to exert the effort? I can't tell you. I think these are a great idea, and I will definitely keep them around in case we have another younger kitty come into the household - I have a hunch that a younger kitten would go after these like crazy! |

But to be honest, not all licorice flavors are done right, and it's one of those flavors that if it's not right, it can be just WRONG.
Fortunately, Red Leaf Tea did licorice RIGHT! This is a strong, crisp, zesty licorice flavor. It's really an exhilarating flavor. As I sip it, the aftertaste reminds me very much of Altoid's Liquorice which is the strongest licorice flavored thing I've ever tasted. This nearly rivals the Altoids in strength ... but this is even better because of the Matcha. The Matcha offers its creamy consistency and slightly buttery, sweet vegetative tones to the sip, which softens the sharper notes of the licorice in a very appealing way, creating a flavor that reminds me of black Jelly Bellys ... as if someone took black Jelly Bellys and liquified them and stirred them into a bowl of Matcha.
It is so good. If you like black licorice, you should try this. If you are a black licorice fiend like I am - you've GOT to try this ... this may just be my new favorite source of black licorice flavor, not to mention my new favorite flavored Matcha! |

I barely know orice! | I have such a love/hate relationship with licorice, and I had to try this one, I just had to. Licorice in tea is one of my favorite things of all time, and the Licorice Mint tea from Red Leaf Tea is a must for me when I'm sick. And while I love allsorts, any other licorice candy is not for me. I just think it's vile. Every Easter my mother would gleefully sit by as I sorted out all of the black jelly beans from my basket. She was the only one in the family who liked them. Is there anything more gross than popping what you think is a purple jellybean into your mouth, only to discover it was a horrible, horrible, licorice one? Blegh! But allsorts....mmm. They've become a bit of tradition in our family. They're impossible to find in Tennessee, so when I'm sending a package to my folks I always include Coffee Crisp for my mom and allsorts for my dad. That is, if I can keep myself from eating them all before the package goes out! Trust me, it happens more often than I care to admit.
I kept eyeing this tea, adding it to my shopping cart and then removing it in favor of another flavor of matcha, adding it back to my wishlist. I finally bit the bullet and I'm here to find out if this is an allsort or a black jellybean.
It's not a black jellybean at all! It is a lovely sweet licorice that soothes the throat and makes me unbelievably happy. I was very scared of this blend, but those fears were unfounded. It is delicious and definitely one I need to keep around for when I'm sick but I have to deal with work anyway. Completely lovely. It's not really an allsort either, it's the licorice I've come to know and love in teas. I should have expected that, but I was scared by the picture on the website.
Licorice tends to polarize people. You either love it or you hate it. I'm one of those who loves it, but my wife is one who hates it. If it's in a tea, she can taste it, and it bothers her. But for me...oh, I love it and this matcha is beautiful in the balance of flavor to matcha. I want to make a large mug of this, but I have other matchas to taste and review! |

But be forewarned -- if you are used to the bland olive oils sold mass market in most supermarkets, the strong assertive character may come as somewhat of a shock. As noted in the Amazon product description, "according to Deborah Krasner in "The Flavors of Olive Oil", this oil "...is strongly and pleasantly bitter, with a pronounced burn....'It made my face scrunch up.' Very green and grassy, this is an oil made for drizzling."" I would tend to agree with that. In my opinion, this is really at it's best drizzled over grilled meats, vegetables and salads almost as a condiment. For dipping bread and most cooking (it's too expensive for most chefs on a budget like mine anyway) you might prefer an oil from Sicily, Spain, Australia or California, which are softer and more buttery. That said, for purists, this may be the right olive oil even for bread dipping. It's flavors and aromas are remarkably complex and powerful. |

It is, however, the most expensive of all, even the ones in the health food store. I'll keeping looking for a cheaper alternative, but for now this is it for me. |

The Peach variety has a very strong black tea flavor and very light on the Peach taste. It is labeled a sweet tea, but it is not that sweet. With only 15 grams of sugar, it is a lot less than 39 grams of sugar in a soft drink. What I would like to see is a blend of black and orange pekoe teas to soften the straight bitter black tea flavor. This is also true for the Raspberry Iced Tea. My favorite is the Half and Half, a mixture of tea and lemonade. |
