  • i saw a video where a lady rolled up cat treats in a towel. she said it kept her cats occupied for hours, i thought she was exaggerating with it being an easy puzzle so i tried it with my cat. he is very stupid. after he gave up i tried again folding the towel. he watched while i did it. tried for 30s before screaming and begging me to just give him treats. figured if i left it overnight hed get it eventually. he is overweight and is on a diet, so he is extremely food desparate. wake up 8 hours later and the towel had moved/been played with but not unfolded.

    tldr; my cat is far too stupid to solve basic puzzles










  • I mix together oats, peanut butter, protein powder, some sweetener (agave, honey, sometimes maple syrup if I’m out of the others, I find a liquid sugar helps them stick), and then something with a crunch, maybe chocolate chips, maybe sunflower seeds, and then a little bit of salt and vanilla for flavor (unless the protein powder adds enough flavor already). Mix it well then stick in the fridge till it solidifies enough to mold with your hands, roll into balls, then I usually throw them right back into a container and into the fridge. If you use natural peanut butter, you can add some coconut oil to help them stick a little more.
