What it does
- Two-piece design snaps together so your pet works for meals instead of demanding food at 4am
- Generously sized holes let food tumble out as your cat or dog plays, so mealtime becomes playtime
- Prints in two pieces that friction-fit together, so you can assemble and start using it right away
- Softball-sized toy keeps your pet mentally busy, so they stay happier and calmer throughout the day
Stop the midnight food demands. Your cat or dog works for every kibble when you use this feeder ball, turning hunger into a fun game that wears them out.
This 3D-printed ball holds dry food and treats inside. As your pet nudges, pounces, and rolls it, food tumbles out through the holes. The two-piece design snaps together with friction and stays put during play. You get both individual pieces and a print plate for easy printing from the US.
The holes are sized for standard kibble, but you can shrink the design if your pet eats tiny treats or if you want to make the game tougher. A softball-sized toy, it works for cats, dogs, and any pet that needs more activity during the day.

Printed plastic is strong for its size, but it is not metal. We have not load tested this design, so we do not publish a weight rating. Keep it out of a hot car and away from open flame.
