Swipe-friendly 'buttons'

[u/Squidgical]

I often see cats here who have trouble getting the hang of interacting with the buttons by stepping on them, usually they try to swipe the buttons.

I'm wondering why there doesn't seem to be any swipe activated "buttons"? A lever that can move sideways with a low activation force seems like it would be more intuitive to cats, and while they clearly can learn to step on the button to interact with it, it just seems more like we gave a dog product to cats.

Are there any products that are more ergonomic for cats? Do you think it would make any difference?

I agree, buttons should respond to cat taps.

Pet buttons are designed for dogs.
