When we began designing our animal enrichment products in 2005, we contacted multiple veterinarians to understand their specific needs and hear their experienced advice. Although we wanted to make a product that would stimulate felines, we also wanted to ensure we had expert input for safety and product usability. This research led to the development of our New Generation line's state-of-the-art pet enrichment equipment.

Constructed from High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE)—a thermoplastic material renowned for its excellent tensile strength, high melting point, affordability, good impact resistance, and ease of disinfection using standard shelter disinfectants-these units have become the industry 'gold standard' for cat enrichment equipment for confined cats, according to leaders at two prominent animal charity organizations.

During the last few years, our versatile, long-lasting products have made their way to Cat Cafes, Boarding/Day Care Facilities, and Veterinary Offices around the U.S. and Canada. These new markets are looking for the stimulation and agility opportunities inherent in all of our products. We are excited to delve into these new opportunities and continue to bring our one-of-a-kind products into the lives of cats everywhere.
