Sayed Kashua has been praised by the New York Times as "a master of subtle nuance in dealing with both Arab and Jewish society." An Israeli-Palestinian who lived in Jerusalem for most of his life, Kashua started writing in Hebrew with the hope of creating one story that both Palestinians and Israelis could relate to, rather than two that cannot coexist. He devoted his novels and his satirical weekly column published in Haaretz to exploring the contradictions of modern Israel while also capturing the nuances of family life in all its tenderness and chaos.

Over the last decade, Kashua's humorous essays have been among the most widely read columns in Israel. He writes about fatherhood and marriage, the Jewish-Arab conflict, encounters with prejudice, his professional ambitions, and his love of literature. With an intimate tone fueled by deep-seated apprehension and a razor-sharp ironic wit, he has documented his own life as well as that of society at large--from instructing his daughter on when it's appropriate to speak Arabic (everywhere, anytime, except at the entrance to a mall) to navigating security at Ben Gurion airport (in a Citroen that he'd bought especially for checkpoints: "God in heaven, who ever saw an Arab driving a Citroen?") to opening a Facebook account during the Arab Spring (so that he wouldn't miss the next revolution).

From these events of his everyday life, Kashua brings forth a series of brilliant, caustic, wry, and fearless reflections on social and cultural dynamics as experienced by someone who straddles two societies. Amusing and sincere, Native--a selection of his popular columns--is comprised of unrestrained, profoundly thoughtful personal dispatches.

Great Enrichment Toy for Treats or Kibble!
Color: red
I love this toy—and so do my dogs! It’s perfect for daily enrichment and works great as a kibble feeder too. It holds a generous amount (about 3 cups), rolls smoothly, and keeps my dogs mentally engaged while they work for their food. One of my favorite features is the adjustable treat holes. You can easily change the difficulty level, which makes it suitable for dogs of all sizes and skill levels. Whether you have a beginner or a more experienced puzzle solver, this toy adapts perfectly. It’s well-made, easy to clean, and durable enough for everyday use. This has been a great addition to our routine and helps slow down eating while keeping my dogs entertained and stimulated. Highly recommend for anyone looking to add more enrichment to their dog’s day!

Doesn't break easily
Color: yellow/orange
This toy works really good. I bought it from my daughter's dog when they bring her over but it ended up the cat. Loved it and knows how to play with it. Better than the dog did. LOL

My frenchie likes it.
Color: yellow/orange
Very useful for my dog. It made him eat slower because he tends to inhale his food. He got his playtime and was able to eat his kibble a little bit a time.

Not durable
Color: red
Although it holds about two cups of food or treats, my 40lb dog can bite down hard enough that you can no longer move the dispenser hole. It entertains her for hours but it could be a bit more durable for larger dogs or specify that it is for smaller pups
