*Train Them!     (dogs, cats, birds, small animals) Use this opportunity to teach them something. Teach your dog to "take a bow", teach your cat to sit on cue, teach your bunny to touch a target (this can be used to teach tricks later), and teach your bird to spin (If you feed raw or canned food, get a food tube!)
*Fun Feeders     (dogs, cats) Simply pour their food into the fun feeder instead of a normal bowl. Cats will scoop it out with their paws, dogs will lick it out
Scatter It!     (dogs, cats, small animals) Simply scatter your pets serving on the floor (or floor of the cage)
Hide It!     (dogs, cats, small animals, birds) Teach your pet to find their food when you hide using these tips. Can be modified slightly to for birds and caged animals.
Snuffle Mat     (dogs and cats) Let your pet sniff their dinner out of this unique mat
DIY Toys     (dogs, cats, birds, small animals) Check out these ideas
​*Toilet Paper Roll (easy)    (small animals, birds, cats, some dogs) Take an empty toilet paper and place food inside. Leave ends open and place where your pet can get to it
*Toilet Paper Roll (harder)    ​(small animals, birds, cats, some dogs) Same as above, but fold the ends in (make holes in it so dry food can fall out for cats)
*Egg Carton     (dogs, cats, small animals, birds) Place food in an empty paper egg carton. Also works well with wet food.
*Muffin Pan     (dogs, cats) Place food in the cups of a muffin pan
Treat Balls    (dogs, cats, small animals)
​*Coffee Cup     (cats) Place food in a coffee cup, place the cup on its side. The handle keeps the cup from rolling all over the place as the cats scoop out food.
*Box Foraging #2     (dogs, small animals, birds) Put food in empty boxes (cracker, cereal, tissue, etc). Leave them open to make it easier, close them to make it more challenging, stack them for the biggest challenge. Can be used with cats if you have a small box that the cat can reach a paw in to to fish out food
