The classicHides
Mouse
Scurries about, stops for a sniff and ducks under the cushion or past the edge of the screen. Then, when you least expect it, out pokes its nose.

Made for the way they see: prey in blues and yellows, strong contrast and movement like real prey. Pick who's playing, put the screen on the floor and let the hunt begin.
Who's playing?
For cats: small, fast prey that hides and peeks out. A paw on top counts as a catch.
Relaxing
Fish
A pond of yellow fish gliding between lily pads. Every touch sends ripples across the water.
Very fast
Light dot
A yellow dot that zigzags, freezes and slips away right under the paw. Like a laser, minus the laser.
Erratic
Moth
Flutters aimlessly around the lamp, lands for a moment and takes off again.
For dogs: big targets and calmer movement. Lots of dogs would rather watch than touch, so there's a TV mode. A nose or paw tap counts too.
For watchingNo touching
Dog TV
A quiet park: blue tits, a squirrel and falling leaves, with birdsong and rustling. No need to touch anything; a nose tap still counts.
Birdsong
Birds
Blue tits hopping on the ground, pecking and chirping. Touch one and off they fly; they're back before long.
Peeks out
Squirrel
Runs along the fence, stops, flicks its tail and peeks out from behind the tree trunk.
Bounce and boing
Ball
A big blue ball that bounces, rolls and shoots off with a ‘boing’ when touched.
Before you play
Playtime together, done right
- Play alongside them. It's a game to share, not a screen babysitter.
- Screen flat and steady, on the floor or a low table. A screen protector saves it from claw scratches.
- Short sessions of 5 to 10 minutes. At 8 minutes, the game suggests a break.
- Finish with a real toy they can catch, so the hunt ends with a catch and they're not left wanting.
- Dogs: keep the volume moderate. Their hearing is sharper than ours.
