Using the KONG Rewards Rocker is easy. First, if you want to make playtime extra exciting, open the mouse and add some catnip. Then, you can fill the rocker with your cat's favorite treats or kibble. Place it in front of your cat, and watch as they bat at the swinging inner mouse. The bell inside the mouse will ring, catching your cat's attention. You can also use it as a puzzle feeder during mealtimes to make eating more fun. When it comes to maintenance, since it's hand - wash only, use mild soap and warm water to clean it. Make sure it's completely dry before giving it back to your cat. Avoid using harsh chemicals or putting it in the dishwasher as this may damage the toy.
