Description

本発明は、猫用知育玩具に関するものである。   The present invention relates to an educational toy for cats.

近年、猫を室内で飼育することが増えている。猫はもともと野生の肉食動物であるため、自然界で生きた動物の狩猟を行う性質を本能的に身につけている。また、人に飼育されるようになり狩猟を行わなくてもよくなった現在もその本能的な性質を引き継いでいる。そのため、飼い猫には時折、適当に刺激を与えて運動させないと、運動不足やストレス過多に陥る。犬の場合は、首輪をつけて散歩などに連れて行くことが容易であり、またボール等を投げると走って行き忠実にボールを銜えて持ってくるような運動が可能なため、運動不足やストレス等を解消し易いが、猫の場合は、犬に比べて野生性が強く、飼い主が主導的に猫に運動等をさせることが難しい。   In recent years, cats have been raised indoors. Cats are naturally wild carnivores, so they have an instinct for hunting animals that live in nature. In addition, even now that it is no longer necessary to hunt by being raised by humans, it continues its instinct. For this reason, domestic cats sometimes suffer from lack of exercise and excessive stress unless they are appropriately stimulated to exercise. In the case of dogs, it is easy to take a collar and take it for a walk, etc. Also, if you throw a ball etc. you can run and faithfully pick up the ball and bring it, so there is insufficient exercise Although it is easy to relieve stress and the like, cats are more wild than dogs, and it is difficult for the owner to lead the cats to exercise and the like.

そこで、室内で飼育される猫の運動不足やストレスの解消を目的として様々な玩具が開発されている。その中でも特に、内部に収容される嗜好物に猫の興味を引き付け、飼い主を必要とせず猫が自ら遊ぶことができる玩具として、例えば、筒型容器の中心部に嗜好物の一粒大が出し入れできる大きさの孔を設け、猫が転がす度に表面の小さな孔から嗜好物が出てくる仕組みの玩具がある(特許文献1)。猫は嗜好物を食べることで、より一層、食欲が覚醒し、積極的に自ら遊ぶようになる。猫によっては、その転がし方によって、効率的な嗜好物の出し方を習得するものもおり、このような玩具は猫用知育玩具と呼ばれている。このような猫用知育玩具を用いることで、猫の知育が図られるとともに、嗜好物を出すための行為の繰り返しで遊びに飽きることなく玩具を使用するので、運動量も増し、ストレスも解消され、猫の健康面の向上効果が得られる。   Therefore, various toys have been developed for the purpose of relieving lack of exercise and stress of cats raised indoors. Among them, in particular, as a toy that attracts the interest of cats to the favorite foods stored in the interior and allows the cats to play by themselves without requiring an owner, for example, a single size of favorite foods is put in and out of the center of a cylindrical container. There is a toy that has a hole of a size that can be made and a favorite item comes out of a hole on the surface every time the cat rolls (Patent Document 1). Cats eat their favorite foods, and their appetite awakens more and become more active in themselves. Some cats learn how to put out favorite foods depending on how they roll, and such toys are called educational toys for cats. By using such educational toys for cats, it is possible to educate cats, and to use the toys without getting tired of play by repeating the act of putting out favorites, so the amount of exercise increases and stress is also eliminated, The effect of improving the health of the cat is obtained.

しかしながら、猫は、その性質上、犬に比べて転がる玩具にあまり興味を示さず、嗜好物を食べる場合であっても、飼い主から直接与えられるものよりも、自ら取りに行く傾向がある。そのため、上記のような猫用知育玩具では、持続して玩具に興味を抱かないという問題が生じていた。   However, cats, by their nature, are less interested in toys that roll than dogs, and even when they eat their favorite foods, they tend to go for themselves rather than those given directly by their owners. Therefore, in the educational toys for cats as described above, there has been a problem that they are not interested in toys continuously.

本発明は、上記課題を解決するためになされたものであり、猫が自ら嗜好物を取りに行く習性を利用し、猫に持続的に興味を持たせることができる猫用知育玩具を提供する。   The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and provides an educational toy for cats that uses the habit of cats to pick up their favorite foods and can keep them interested continuously. .

本発明に係る猫用知育玩具は、上部が開口し、嗜好物を収容可能な内部空間を有する紙製の箱体を備え、前記箱体の側面部及び底面部の少なくとも一方には、前記箱体の内方へ突出可能な少なくとも1枚の邪魔板が設けられる。   The educational toy for cats according to the present invention includes a paper box having an internal space in which an upper part is opened and a favorite item can be accommodated, and the box is provided on at least one of a side part and a bottom part of the box. At least one baffle plate that can project inward of the body is provided.

本発明の猫用知育玩具によると、箱体に嗜好物を収容すると上部が開口しているので、箱体内の嗜好物が見える状態に置かれる。そのため、自ら嗜好物を取りに行く習性を有する猫に対して、猫用知育玩具に興味を持たせ易くなる。加えて、箱体内の側面部及び底面部に、箱体の内方へ突出可能な邪魔板が1枚又は複数枚設けられている。猫は、物を握るという行為ができないため、底面部から側面部を伝わせて嗜好物を箱体から取り出そうとするが、箱体の内方へ邪魔板を突出させると、邪魔板に嗜好物が引っ掛かり、嗜好物を箱体から容易には取り出せなくなる。飼い主は、猫の様子に応じて邪魔板を突出させる、又は、突出させる邪魔板の枚数を変更することで、猫が箱体から嗜好物を取り出す困難度を変えることができる。その結果、嗜好物を取り出す困難度が遊ぶごとに変わるため、猫を飽きさせず、猫に猫用知育玩具に対する持続的な興味を抱かせることができる。また、猫は、手の肉球に突起物が触れることで本能的に興奮する性質を有するため、邪魔板を突出させて、嗜好物を取るごとに猫の手の肉球に邪魔板が触れるようにすることで、猫は興奮して、猫用知育玩具により興味を引き付けられる。さらに、猫が猫用知育玩具を使用し続けると、猫用知育玩具に自分の臭いが付着し、猫用知育玩具を固体識別して自分の仲間と思い込み、猫が猫用知育玩具に興味を抱かなくなる。しかしながら、猫用知育玩具を紙製とすることで、安価に買い換えることができ、長期にわたって猫用知育玩具に猫の興味を引き付けることができる。   According to the educational toy for cats of the present invention, when a favorite item is stored in the box, the upper part is opened, so that the favorite item in the box can be seen. Therefore, it becomes easy to make the cat having the habit of taking a favorite food himself interested in the educational toy for cats. In addition, one or a plurality of baffle plates that can protrude inward of the box body are provided on the side surface portion and the bottom surface portion in the box body. Since cats cannot act to grab things, they try to take their favorite items out of the box from the bottom side to the side, but if the baffle plate protrudes inward of the box, the favorite items in the baffle plate Will be caught and it will not be possible to easily remove the favorite item from the box. The owner can change the degree of difficulty for the cat to extract the favorite item from the box by causing the baffle plate to protrude or changing the number of baffle plates to be projected in accordance with the state of the cat. As a result, since the difficulty level of taking out the favorite item changes every time it is played, the cat can be kept interested in the educational toy for the cat without getting bored of the cat. In addition, cats have the property of instinctively excitement by touching the paws on the hand's paws, so the baffle touches the paws on the cat's hand whenever a preference is taken. By doing so, the cat gets excited and is attracted by the educational toys for cats. Furthermore, if the cat continues to use the educational toys for cats, their smell will stick to the educational toys for cats. I will not hold you. However, if the educational toys for cats are made of paper, they can be purchased at low cost, and the interests of cats can be attracted to the educational toys for cats over a long period of time.

上記猫用知育玩具において、箱体の側面部の端部には、開口の一部を塞ぐ内蓋が設けられることができる。このような構成を有することで、箱体から嗜好物を取り出そうとすると、箱体内において嗜好物が内蓋の下方側へと動いてしまい、嗜好物をより取り出し難くすることができる。これにより、嗜好物の取り出す困難度のバリエーションが増え、より猫用知育玩具に猫の興味を引き付けることができる。また、このような内蓋を設けることで、箱体の開口が狭くなる。そのため、猫は、箱体内に直接顔を入れて嗜好物を食べることができ難くなり、どのようにして効率的に箱体から嗜好物を取り出すかを考えるため、猫の知育を図ることができる。   In the educational toy for cats, an inner lid for closing a part of the opening may be provided at an end of the side surface of the box. By having such a configuration, when a favorite item is taken out from the box, the favorite item moves to the lower side of the inner lid in the box, making it more difficult to take out the favorite item. Thereby, the variation of the difficulty of taking out a favorite thing increases, and it can attract the cat's interest to the educational toy for cats more. Further, by providing such an inner lid, the opening of the box is narrowed. Therefore, it is difficult for cats to eat their favorite foods by putting their face directly into the box, and to think about how to take out favorite foods efficiently from the box, it is possible to promote cat education .

また、上記猫用知育玩具において、箱体の側面部には、箱体内に収容された嗜好物を放出させるための扉が開閉可能に設けられることができる。これにより、扉を開けておくことで、箱体の上部だけでなく、意外なところから嗜好物が放出され、猫の興味を増したり、箱体から嗜好物を上手く取り出せない猫でも、箱体を傾けて嗜好物を取り出すことができ、様々な猫に、猫用知育玩具に対する興味を抱かせることができる。   Moreover, in the said educational toy for cats, the door for releasing the favorite thing accommodated in the box can be provided in the side part of a box so that opening and closing is possible. As a result, by opening the door, not only the upper part of the box but also the favorite foods are released from unexpected places, increasing the cat's interest, and even cats that cannot take out the food from the box well. It is possible to take out favorite foods by tilting and to make various cats have interest in educational toys for cats.

また、上記猫用知育玩具において、箱体の側面部、内蓋、及び、開口を塞ぐために箱体の側面部の端部に設けられる蓋体のうち少なくとも一つには、嗜好物を差し込み可能な差込孔が設けられることができる。このような差込孔を設けることで、差込孔に嗜好物を差し込んで、猫にその嗜好物を取らせることができる。このとき、箱体は軽く安定しないため容易に動き、さらにその動きは不自然なものとなる。このように不自然な動きをする箱体を、猫は獲物と看做し、興奮して嗜好物を取ろうと追いかける。また、箱体自体を敵と看做し、攻撃を仕掛ける。これにより、猫に猫用知育玩具に対してより興味を抱かせるとともに、猫に多くの運動をさせることができる。   In addition, in the above-mentioned cat educational toy, a favorite item can be inserted into at least one of the side surface portion of the box body, the inner lid, and the lid body provided at the end of the side surface portion of the box body to close the opening. Insertion holes can be provided. By providing such an insertion hole, it is possible to insert a favorite item into the insertion hole and cause the cat to take the favorite item. At this time, since the box is light and unstable, it easily moves, and the movement becomes unnatural. The cat sees the box that moves in such an unnatural manner as a prey, and is excited and chases to take a favorite. Also, the box itself is regarded as an enemy and an attack is made. This makes the cat more interested in the educational toys for cats and allows the cat to exercise a lot.

また、上記猫用知育玩具において、箱体の底面部には、箱体の内部空間を区画する仕切り壁が設けられることができる。このような仕切り壁を設け、嗜好物が収容される区画を狭くすることで、猫が区画内に直接顔を入れて嗜好物を食べることができ難くなり、どのようにして効率的に箱体から嗜好物を取り出すかを考えるため、猫の知育を図ることができる。   Moreover, in the said educational toy for cats, the partition wall which divides the internal space of a box can be provided in the bottom face part of a box. By providing such a partition wall and narrowing the compartment where the favorite items are stored, it becomes difficult for cats to eat their favorite food by putting their face directly into the compartment, and how to efficiently Because it is considered whether to take out the favorite food from the cat, it is possible to train the cat.

本発明の猫用知育玩具によると、嗜好物を取り出す困難度を変えることができるために、猫を飽きさせず、猫に持続的に興味を持たせることができる。   According to the educational toy for cats of the present invention, it is possible to change the degree of difficulty for extracting a favorite item, so that the cat can be kept interested without being bored.

上記構成の箱体10、蓋体20、内蓋30及び仕切り壁40は、図4に示す1枚の型紙100を所定の折り目に沿って折り曲げることにより組み立てられる。型紙100は、長方形状の4連の後面部11d、右面部外壁112b、前面部11c及び左面部外壁112aが折り目101を介して連接されており、一端側の後面部11dには他端側の左面部外壁112aを接着させるための貼付片15が連接されている。後面部11d、右面部外壁112b、前面部11c及び左面部外壁112aの下端部には、折り目102を介して底面構成片12a,12bが連接されており、上端部には、折り目103を介して順に蓋部21、右面部内壁111b、内蓋部31及び左面部内壁111aが連接されている。さらに、蓋部21の上端部には折り目108を介して被覆部22が連接され、被覆部22の上端部には折り目106を介して係止片23が連接されている。また、右面部内壁111b及び左面部内壁111aの上端部には折り目104を介して底面部内壁121が連接され、底面部内壁121には折り目105を介して仕切り壁40が連接されている。また、内蓋部31の上端部には折れ目107を介して連接部33が連接されており、連接部33の上端部には折れ目109を介して固定部32が連接されている。   The box body 10, the lid body 20, the inner lid 30, and the partition wall 40 having the above-described configuration are assembled by folding one sheet of paper pattern 100 shown in FIG. 4 along a predetermined crease. In the pattern paper 100, four rectangular rear surface portions 11d, a right surface outer wall 112b, a front surface portion 11c, and a left surface outer wall 112a are connected via a fold line 101, and one end side rear surface portion 11d is connected to the other end side. An adhesive piece 15 for adhering the left surface outer wall 112a is connected. The bottom surface constituent pieces 12a and 12b are connected to the lower end portions of the rear surface portion 11d, the right surface portion outer wall 112b, the front surface portion 11c, and the left surface portion outer wall 112a via the fold line 102, and the upper end portion via the fold line 103. The lid 21, the right surface inner wall 111b, the inner lid 31 and the left surface inner wall 111a are connected in order. Further, the cover portion 22 is connected to the upper end portion of the lid portion 21 via a fold line 108, and the locking piece 23 is connected to the upper end portion of the cover portion 22 via a fold line 106. Further, a bottom surface inner wall 121 is connected to the upper end portions of the right surface inner wall 111b and the left surface inner wall 111a via a fold 104, and a partition wall 40 is connected to the bottom surface inner wall 121 via a fold 105. In addition, a connecting portion 33 is connected to the upper end portion of the inner lid portion 31 via a fold 107, and a fixing portion 32 is connected to the upper end portion of the connecting portion 33 via a fold 109.

上記構成の猫用知育玩具1は、まず、図4に示す型紙100を用い、後面部11d、右面部外壁112b、前面部11c及び左面部外壁112aと底面構成片12a,12bとを所定の折り目101,102に沿って折り曲げ、貼付片15及び連結片12cをそれぞれ、左面部外壁112a及び底面構成片12aに糊付けなどすることで箱体10を組み立てる。そして、左面部内壁111a及び右面部内壁111bを折れ目103で箱体10の内側に折り曲げて左面部11a及び右面部11bを2枚重ねにする。続けて、底面部内壁121を折れ目104で折り曲げて、底面構成片12a,12bによって組み立てられた底面部外壁122に沿わせて底面部12を2枚重ねにする。それから、折れ目105で折り曲げて仕切り壁40を垂直に立ち上げる。   First, the cat educational toy 1 having the above-described configuration uses the pattern 100 shown in FIG. 4 to fold the rear surface portion 11d, the right surface outer wall 112b, the front surface portion 11c, the left surface outer wall 112a, and the bottom surface component pieces 12a and 12b. The box 10 is assembled by bending along the 101 and 102, and pasting the pasting piece 15 and the connecting piece 12c to the left side outer wall 112a and the bottom surface constituting piece 12a, respectively. Then, the left surface portion inner wall 111a and the right surface portion inner wall 111b are folded inside the box 10 at the fold 103 to overlap the left surface portion 11a and the right surface portion 11b. Subsequently, the bottom wall portion inner wall 121 is bent at the fold 104, and two bottom surface portions 12 are overlapped along the bottom surface outer wall 122 assembled by the bottom surface constituting pieces 12a and 12b. Then, the partition wall 40 is raised vertically by bending at the fold 105.

その後、内蓋部31、連接部33及び固定部32をそれぞれ折れ目103、107、109で折り曲げて、固定部32の先端部に形成されている切込み34を仕切り壁40に形成されている切込み44に差し込んで内蓋30が閉じられる。最後に、蓋部21、被覆部22及び係止片23をそれぞれ折れ目103、108、106で折り曲げて、前面部11cの下端部に設けられている係止孔14に係止片23を差し込むことで蓋体20が閉じられる。このとき、仕切り壁40の前側部分41が左面部11a、右面部11b、前面部11c及び後面部11dと同等の高さであるため、内蓋30及び蓋体20は、仕切り壁40の前側部分41に支持されることとなる。これにより、荷重を加えても内蓋30及び蓋体20が凹み難くなり、箱体10全体が補強される。   After that, the inner lid portion 31, the connecting portion 33, and the fixing portion 32 are bent at the folds 103, 107, and 109, respectively, and the notch 34 formed at the distal end portion of the fixing portion 32 is formed in the partition wall 40. The inner lid 30 is closed by inserting it into 44. Finally, the lid portion 21, the covering portion 22, and the locking piece 23 are bent at the folds 103, 108, and 106, respectively, and the locking piece 23 is inserted into the locking hole 14 provided in the lower end portion of the front surface portion 11 c. Thus, the lid 20 is closed. At this time, since the front portion 41 of the partition wall 40 has the same height as the left surface portion 11a, the right surface portion 11b, the front surface portion 11c, and the rear surface portion 11d, the inner lid 30 and the lid body 20 are the front portion of the partition wall 40. 41 will be supported. Thereby, even if a load is applied, the inner lid 30 and the lid 20 are difficult to be dented, and the entire box 10 is reinforced.

このようにして組み立てられた猫用知育玩具1には、例えば、消臭剤、芳香剤又はまたたび等の誘引剤を添加することもできる。猫は、自分の臭いが付着すると、これを固体認識して自分の仲間と思い込み、その結果、猫用知育玩具1を攻撃しなくなる。そこで、消臭剤、芳香剤又は誘引剤を用いると、猫用知育玩具1に付着した猫の臭いを消したり、猫を誘引させるような香りによって猫の嗅覚を刺激したりすることができ、猫用知育玩具1に猫の興味を引き付け易くなる。   For example, a deodorant, a fragrance, or an attracting agent such as scent can be added to the cat educational toy 1 assembled in this way. When the cat's own odor is attached, the cat recognizes this as a solid and thinks that it is his companion. As a result, the cat does not attack the educational toy 1 for cats. Therefore, if a deodorant, a fragrance or an attractant is used, the smell of the cat adhering to the educational toy 1 for a cat can be erased, or the smell of the cat can be stimulated by a scent that attracts the cat. It becomes easy to attract the cat's interest to the educational toy 1 for cats.

さらに、猫用知育玩具1に音を出す装置(図示せず)を取り付けたり、猫用知育玩具1の外面を、猫が興奮するような色地にし、又、猫の目に刺激を与える模様の絵柄を印刷したりすることもできる。特に、猫用知育玩具1を透明色や自然色に近い色にすると、猫の目に写り難く猫の猫用知育玩具1に対する反応が鈍くなるため、視覚的に目立たせて猫用知育玩具1の存在に猫が気付き易くすることが好ましい。   Furthermore, a device (not shown) for producing sound is attached to the educational toy 1 for cats, the outer surface of the educational toy 1 for cats is colored so that the cat is excited, and the cat's eyes are stimulated. You can also print the pattern. In particular, if the educational toy for cats 1 is a color close to a transparent color or natural color, the cat's reaction to the educational toys for cats 1 becomes difficult to be seen in the eyes of the cats, so that the educational toys for cats 1 are visually conspicuous. It is preferable to make the cat easily aware of the presence of.

次に、猫用知育玩具1の使用方法について説明する。飼い主は、係止片23を係止孔14から外すことで、蓋体20を開く。そして、開口13から箱体10の内部空間Sに嗜好物Fを入れる。内部空間Sに入れる嗜好物Fはタブレット状、棒状等の任意の形状のものを用いることができる。   Next, the usage method of the educational toy 1 for cats is demonstrated. The owner opens the lid 20 by removing the locking piece 23 from the locking hole 14. And the favorite thing F is put into the internal space S of the box 10 from the opening 13. The favorite food F put in the internal space S can be of any shape such as a tablet shape or a rod shape.

嗜好物Fを取り出す困難度は、箱体10の左面部内壁111a、右面部内壁111b及び底面部内壁121に設けられた邪魔板50の、箱体10の内方へ突出させる枚数で調節する。すなわち、全ての邪魔板50を箱体10の内方へ突出させると、邪魔板50に邪魔されて猫が嗜好物Fを取り出し難くなる。一方で、邪魔板50を箱体10の内方へ突出させないと、猫が嗜好物Fを取り出すときに邪魔になるものがなくなり、嗜好物Fが取り出し易くなる。さらに、扉60を箱体10の外側に折り曲げて開くと、箱体10を倒すだけで嗜好物Fが放出されるので、嗜好物Fを取り出す困難度を下げることができる。また逆に、扉60を箱体10の内側に折り曲げて開くと、箱体10を倒しただけでは嗜好物Fが扉60に引っ掛かって放出され難くなり、嗜好物Fを取り出す困難度を少し上げることができる。このように、扉60の開く向きによっても嗜好物Fを取り出す困難度を調節することができる。飼い主は、猫の様子に応じて、邪魔板50を突出させたり、扉60を開いたりして、嗜好物Fを取り出す困難度を調節する。   The degree of difficulty for taking out the favorite F is adjusted by the number of baffle plates 50 provided on the left inner wall 111a, the right inner wall 111b, and the bottom inner wall 121 of the box 10 so as to protrude inward of the box 10. That is, if all the baffle plates 50 are protruded inward of the box 10, the baffle plate 50 disturbs the cat and it is difficult for the cat to take out the favorite food F. On the other hand, if the baffle plate 50 is not protruded inward of the box body 10, there will be no obstacle when the cat takes out the favorite food F, and the favorite food F is easily taken out. Furthermore, when the door 60 is folded and opened to the outside of the box body 10, the favorite food F is released only by defeating the box body 10, so that the difficulty level of taking out the favorite food F can be reduced. On the other hand, when the door 60 is folded and opened inside the box body 10, the favorite item F is not easily released by being hooked on the door 60 just by defeating the box member 10, and the degree of difficulty of taking out the favorite item F is slightly increased. be able to. In this way, the difficulty level of taking out the favorite item F can also be adjusted by the opening direction of the door 60. The owner adjusts the difficulty level of taking out the favorite item F by projecting the baffle 50 or opening the door 60 according to the state of the cat.

また、嗜好物Fを取り出す困難度の調節とは別に、飼い主は、図5及び図6に示すように、箱体10の前面部11cや蓋体20に設けられている差込孔70に細長形状の嗜好物Fを差し込み、猫に、嗜好物Fに飛びついて嗜好物Fを取らせる遊びを行わせることもできる。このとき、蓋体20は、図5に示すように、単に開放した状態とすることもできるし、図6に示すように、係止片23を箱体10の後面部11dに設けられた係止孔16に差し込んで固定することもできる。蓋体20を単に開放した状態だと、蓋体20が揺れ動くことに興奮して、猫は猫用知育玩具1に引きつけられて遊ぶ。一方、蓋体20を固定すると、蓋体20に弾力性が生じ、この蓋体20の弾力性に興奮して、猫は猫用知育玩具1に引きつけられて遊ぶ。   In addition to the adjustment of the difficulty level for taking out the favorite food F, the owner is elongated in the insertion hole 70 provided in the front portion 11c of the box 10 or the lid 20 as shown in FIGS. It is also possible to insert a favorite food F having a shape so that the cat can play the favorite food F by jumping to the favorite food F. At this time, the lid 20 can be simply opened as shown in FIG. 5, or the engaging piece 23 is provided on the rear surface portion 11d of the box 10 as shown in FIG. It can also be fixed by being inserted into the stop hole 16. When the lid 20 is simply opened, the cat 20 is excited to swing and the cat is attracted to the educational toy 1 for cats and plays. On the other hand, when the lid 20 is fixed, elasticity is generated in the lid 20, and the cat is excited by the elasticity of the lid 20, and the cat plays with being attracted to the educational toy 1 for cats.

箱体10の内部空間Sに嗜好物Fがなくなると、開口13から嗜好物Fを補充する。   When the favorite food F disappears in the internal space S of the box 10, the favorite food F is replenished from the opening 13.

以上のように、本実施形態では、箱体10に嗜好物Fを収容すると上部が開口しているので、箱体10内の嗜好物Fが見える状態に置かれ、自ら嗜好物Fを取りに行く習性を有する猫に対して、猫用知育玩具1に興味を持たせ易くなる。一方で、箱体10の内部空間Sに仕切り壁40を設けるとともに、箱体10の開口13の略半分を内蓋30で塞ぐため、猫が顔を直接箱体10内に入れて嗜好物Fを食べることができ難くなっている。これにより、猫は、どのようにして効率的に箱体10から嗜好物Fを取り出せるかを試行錯誤しながら猫用知育玩具1で遊ぶため、猫の脳を活性化させ知育を図るとともに、猫の運動不足やストレスの解消ができる。   As described above, in this embodiment, when the favorite item F is accommodated in the box 10, the upper part is opened, so the favorite item F in the box 10 is placed in a state where the favorite item F can be seen. It becomes easy to make the cat having the habit to go interested in the educational toy 1 for cats. On the other hand, the partition wall 40 is provided in the internal space S of the box body 10, and approximately half of the opening 13 of the box body 10 is closed with the inner lid 30, so that the cat puts his face directly into the box body 10 and is a favorite item F It is difficult to eat. As a result, the cat plays with the educational toy 1 for a cat while trying and trying to efficiently extract the favorite item F from the box 10, so that the cat's brain can be activated and promoted. The lack of exercise and stress can be resolved.

また、本実施形態では、箱体10の開口13が狭いため、猫は、手を使って、底面部12から側面部11を伝わせて嗜好物Fを箱体10から取り出そうとするが、箱体10内において内蓋30で覆われている部分に嗜好物Fが移動してしまい、嗜好物Fが取り出し難くなっている。それに加えて、箱体10の左面部内壁111a、右面部内壁111b及び底面部内壁121に、箱体10の内方へ突出可能な邪魔板50が設けられており、箱体10の内方へ邪魔板50を突出させると、邪魔板50に嗜好物Fが引っ掛かり手から落ちてしまうため、嗜好物Fを箱体10から容易には取り出せなくなっている。一方で、箱体10の前面部11cに設けられている扉60を開放することで、箱体10を傾けるだけで嗜好物Fを容易に取り出せるようになっている。飼い主は、猫の様子に応じて邪魔板50を突出させる、突出させる邪魔板50の枚数を変更する、又は、扉60を開放することにより、猫が箱体10から嗜好物Fを取り出す困難度を変えることができる。その結果、嗜好物Fを取り出す困難度が遊ぶごとに変わるため、猫に好奇心を起こさせ、猫を飽きさせず、猫に猫用知育玩具に対する持続的な興味を抱かせることができる。また、猫は、手の肉球に突起物が触れることで本能的に興奮する性質を有するため、邪魔板50を突出させて、嗜好物Fを取るごとに猫の手の肉球に邪魔板50が触れるようにすることで、猫は興奮して、猫用知育玩具1により興味を引き付けられる。   Moreover, in this embodiment, since the opening 13 of the box 10 is narrow, the cat tries to take out the favorite item F from the box 10 by using the hand from the bottom 12 to the side 11. The favorite thing F moves to the part covered with the inner lid 30 in the body 10, and the favorite thing F is difficult to take out. In addition, baffle plates 50 are provided on the left inner wall 111a, the right inner wall 111b, and the bottom inner wall 121 of the box 10 so as to be able to protrude inward of the box 10. When the baffle plate 50 is protruded, the favorite food F is caught on the baffle plate 50 and falls from the hand, so that the favorite food F cannot be easily taken out from the box 10. On the other hand, by opening the door 60 provided on the front surface portion 11c of the box body 10, the favorite item F can be easily taken out only by tilting the box body 10. The degree of difficulty in which the cat takes out the favorite item F from the box 10 by causing the baffle plate 50 to protrude according to the state of the cat, changing the number of baffle plates 50 to be protruded, or opening the door 60. Can be changed. As a result, since the difficulty level of taking out the favorite item F changes every time it is played, the cat can be curious, the cat can be bored, and the cat can be continuously interested in the educational toys for cats. Further, since the cat has the property of instinctively excitement when the protrusion touches the paws of the hand, the baffle plate 50 is protruded, and whenever the favorite food F is taken, the baffle of the hand of the cat is disturbed. By making 50 touch, the cat is excited and attracted by the educational toy 1 for cats.

また、本実施形態では、蓋体20及び前面部11cに差込孔70を設け、差込孔70に嗜好物Fを差し込んで、猫にその嗜好物Fを取らせることができる。猫が差込孔70に差し込まれた嗜好物Fを取ろうとすると、箱体10は軽く安定しないため容易に動き、さらにその動きは不自然なものとなる。このように不自然な動きをする箱体10を、猫は獲物と看做し、興奮して嗜好物Fを取ろうと追いかける。また、箱体10自体を敵と看做し、攻撃を仕掛ける。これにより、猫に猫用知育玩具1に対してより興味を抱かせるとともに、猫に多くの運動をさせることができる。   Moreover, in this embodiment, the insertion hole 70 is provided in the cover body 20 and the front surface part 11c, the favorite thing F can be inserted in the insertion hole 70, and a cat can take the favorite thing F. When the cat tries to take the favorite food F inserted in the insertion hole 70, the box 10 moves easily because it is light and unstable, and the movement becomes unnatural. The box 10 that moves in such an unnatural manner is regarded as a prey by the cat, and is excited to pursue the favorite food F. Further, the box body 10 is regarded as an enemy and an attack is made. This makes the cat more interested in the educational toy 1 for the cat and allows the cat to exercise a lot.

さらに、猫が猫用知育玩具1を使用し続けると、猫用知育玩具1に自分の臭いが付着し、猫用知育玩具1を固体識別して自分の仲間と思い込み、猫が猫用知育玩具1に興味を抱かなくなる。しかしながら、猫用知育玩具1を紙製とすることで、安価に買い換えることができ、長期にわたって猫用知育玩具1に猫の興味を引き付けることができる。   Furthermore, as the cat continues to use the educational toy 1 for cats, the smell of the cat adheres to the educational toy 1 for cats. I'm not interested in one. However, by making the educational toy for cats 1 made of paper, it can be purchased at low cost, and the interest of cats can be attracted to the educational toy for cats 1 over a long period of time.

以上、本発明の一実施形態について説明したが、本発明は上記形態に限定されるものではなく、その趣旨を逸脱しない限りにおいて、種々の変更が可能である。例えば、上記実施形態では、邪魔板50は、2重壁として構成された側面部11の内壁に切込み52を入れて形成しているが、側面部11を1重壁として、側面部11を貫通するように切込み52を入れて邪魔板50を形成しても良い。また、側面部11や底面部12に着脱自在に邪魔板50が取り付けられる構成としても良い。   As mentioned above, although one Embodiment of this invention was described, this invention is not limited to the said form, A various change is possible unless it deviates from the meaning.
