Joy, Confidence, Calm: It Starts With the Right Enrichment
Every pet has an enrichment personality. Discover your dog’s, cat’s, bird’s, or small animal’s natural style — and learn how to support their wellbeing with activities that match how they experience the world.
What Is the Sploot Enrichment Personality System?
Pets don’t all explore, play, bond, or think the same way, and they shouldn’t be enriched the same way either. Your pet’s enrichment personality describes the instinctive way they interact with their environment, whether that’s sniffing, playing, observing, or seeking connection.
Knowing their personality helps you choose the enrichment that feels natural, safe, and joyful for them.
Why Matching Enrichment to Personality Matters
When enrichment aligns with your pet’s natural instincts, everything improves — behavior, confidence, rest, and emotional wellbeing. Pets feel calmer when they receive enrichment that fits who they are, not just what’s available.

Meet the Four Core Pet Enrichment Types
Across dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and other small animals, we consistently see four enrichment personalities emerge:
The Explorer – curious, investigative, novelty-driven
The Player – energetic, joyful, movement-oriented
The Companion – affectionate, connection-oriented
The Thinker – analytical, observant, puzzle-loving
Birds share the same four foundations, but their instincts express differently.
So we adapted them to align with natural bird behaviors like flight, shredding, navigating, vocalizing, and pair bonding.
The Forager (Explorer)
The Performer (Player)
The Navigator (Thinker/Explorer hybrid with movement emphasis)
The Bonding Bird (Companion)
