3D model description

Inspired by Edward Thorndike's 1898 cat 'puzzle box', this marble maze is a series of interconnected multi-action puzzles that your cat or other animal (including humans) must solve to release their treats.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
- By pulling strings and levers, your pet navigates a small marble (8mm) through an interconnected, modular maze.
- The marble is then used as a ‘key’ to unlock the treats.

CAN I MIX AND MATCH MODULES?
- Yes, each module can be connected with any other module in any different combination, creating an ever changing maze that adapts as your pet’s cognitive intelligence grows.

This purchase features lifetime access to all future modules and current prototypes.

Note: No need to laser cut! 3D printable mounting s included as well.
