Behavior experts say that cats in the wild spend 80% of their waking hours hunting for food. Hunting for food is normal cat behavior, and the freedom to express normal behavior is a big pillar of good welfare. So how much time does your cat spend hunting for food? . . An easy way to increase your cat’s hunting time is with food puzzles. While there’s an increasingly big market of cat puzzles (check out @petstages and @trixie.de to start!), you might be able to find ideas in your recycling bin! . . The first video is Bear foraging for food in a small box with packaging paper. The second video is Bear fishing food out of an egg carton. . If your cat has never eaten this way, he may need some assistance to get started. Always make puzzle toys fun - not frustrating! Be mindful of what your cat may ingest when using cardboard or plastic items. #domorewithyourcat #catdiyenrichment #catenrichment #catpuzzles #catdiy #catdiyprojects #catsofinstagram #cat #blackcatsrule #oldcatsrule #trainyourcat #adventurecat #catbehavior #catwelfare https://www.instagram.com/p/CCbOtCqJFgh/?igshid=1xxyy2pz42zud
