It works fantastic for my cats. This is also great enrichement toy if you put soft food on it and then put it in the freezer for an hour

My cat didn’t mind it but didn’t love it either. To be fair—she’s picky. The product is in good condition but I did end up donating it because my cat wasn’t that interested. I think this would be good for a number of cats but maybe the design could be more enticing? That way picky cats would take more of an interest.

Kedim biz yemek yerken surekli masaya atliyor, ayni zamanda ona da yemek versek de erkenden bitirip gene atliyordu. Bu mati kullaniyoruz artik, biz bitirene kadar o hala yemek yiyor oluyor. Hepimiz cok mutluyuz. bu durumda, tavsiye ederim! Kolayca da temizleniyor

Es perfecto para la comida húmeda, tengo este modelo y otro que se llama félix. Este es más rígido, dejando un poco el agua en remojo se limpia bien. Este modelo es más "difícil para los gatos"

I have two cats. One is about 2 1/2 and the other is going to be a year old in May. Last summer, I had an issue with my older cat and needed to take him to the vet only to find that he had idiopathic cystitis. The problem was that nothing had changed in my household for close to a year that would count as a "stressor". I didn't even rearrange the furniture. I chose to make some changes in the house, including getting another cat, changing food, and trying to provide more enrichment opportunities. The choice to get another cat was absolutely the right call. While they play together and entertain each other much of the day and there have not been any further issues, I am still actively trying to find ways to provide enrichment. The new cat is a little bit of a chatter box. Unfortunately, he often decides to be loud in the middle of the day when I am trying to work from home and speaking with customers on the phone. My noise cancelling headphones DO NOT help with this. The new guy is very food motivated and when I learned that licking promotes calmness, I jumped.I don't even WIPE these. THEY ARE SO EASY TO CLEAN IT IS INCREDIBLE. I knew when I got these that if they were complicated or annoying that I would never use them and luckily that has not been the case. Even when I leave the mats out overnight, it takes me less than 30 seconds to clean them. I toss them into the sink face up. Then I spray them with Dawn Powerwash and let them sit temporarily while I pull stuff out to put on the mat for that day and set it on the counter. Then I blast them with the handheld sprayer on my sink and it is over and done with.They can occupy my cats anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes.I watched a few people on Tiktok and looked up different recipes. The following is the list of what I am using or plan on trying on my mats at home. I try to do a mix of different things every day and put them in different places on the mat to see what is being eaten. I noticed some people just pile stuff on and...it just looks awful so I stay away from that kind of application.1. Canned cat food. I free feed dry food, but I put the canned on their mats. I use half a can per mat (preferably pate) and mix it with extra water before smearing it. This is the "main course" of the mat. Anything else I add is a smaller portion and really just serves to keep them interested.2. Canned pumpkin. Make sure you are getting the pure pumpkin and not one that contains sugar and spices. You can also buy pumpkin or carrot baby food.3. Goat Milk powder. You can use it to make the milk in the bowl or as a meal topper, but I find that mixing the powder with the pumpkin makes the pumpkin more enticing. I used this brand https://amzn.to/3HhdjGV4. A spot of honey. Just a very tiny bit and only occasionally.5. I have done very small amounts of cheese, cream cheese, cottage cheese, or plain greek yogurt, but I am trying to get away from this.6. Meat flavored baby food.7. Canned tuna - but only if I am opening a can for myself. I give them a little bit and mix the juice with some dry food.8. Bone Broth - you can find dry powder mix specifically made for pets (it doesn't contain any garlic, onions, seasoning, etc).9. Raw food (I like Stella and Chewys frozen raw dinner morsels). My local store is out but I'll be trying these in the near future.10. Supplements. My cats get gel for hairballs, but these mats work great for hairball treatment, calming gel, l-lysine supplements, etc. I don't need to smear it on their paws because they eat it willingly and this gives me space to do that.

Mon chat aime beaucoup quand je lui mets sa pâtée sur ce tapis de léchage. Il prend tout son temps pour manger. Attention : ne fonctionne pas bien avec les pâtées avec morceaux (je prends d'autre pâtées pour ce tapis). Seul bémol qui fait que je ne mets pas 5 étoiles : lavage à la main obligatoire. Je conseille de laisser tremper directement après usage pour ne pas avoir de difficultés à retirer la pâtée qui reste dans les coins.

Kurzum: Tolles ProduktDie Lickimat kommt bei meinen Hunden auf Empfehlung der Hundetrainerin zum Einsatz.Ich hatte die Matte für Katzen bestellt, da sie zum Zeitpunkt der Bestellung keine fünf Euro gekostet hat. Hier sehe ich keinen Unterschied zu den Hundematten und konnte auch noch sparen.Gerade für Tiere, die nur schwer alleine bleiben können oder in stressigen Situationen Ablenkung brauchen, ist die Lickimat ein Segen.Etwas Hundeleberwurst auf der Matte verteilt und schon sind meine Hunde eine ganze Weile beschäftigt.Da die Matte theoretisch zerbissen werden könnte, würde ich Tiere, die Spielzeug gerne auseinander nehmen, damit nicht alleine lassen.

Love that this mat makes my cat slow down its eating. She only gets kibble 1 X per day - the other two meals are wet food. I do not smash it all down into the crevices, but leave some of it just flush with the mat. She does not bother to lick into the little grooves, so we usually have wet food left in the crevices of the mat and when it dries it's not easy to clean out. The indentations are pretty small making it difficult to pry out dried food- so we leave it soaking in the sink. If you do this watch out! It will splatter the water like crazy if the faucet runs on it, spreading water all over the sink and more! Aside from that, this is a good solution and I'd buy it again. This mat is very useful for those with cats that don't chew their food and then get indigestion.

So, I love my cat, but she is also a little crazy about food and can only see out of one eye. She should be a good point of reference for many cat owners. We have both the Felix and Casper designs and both are good, but you will want to get the Felix if your cat is at all an idiot or gets bored eating. The design of the Casper is more difficult and our cat had trouble getting all her food out. It is also a little more difficult to clean (if you have a spray nozzle, it takes just a few seconds to get all the food residue out, and maybe a full minute on the Casper). However, the pros definitely outweigh any issues. Our cat has slowed her eating from about 1 minute to about 12 minutes and if we don't use her mat, she throws up after she eats. Also to note, we accidentally ran it through the dishwasher once and it was fine. Not that I would recommend doing that, but it won't immediately melt or warp if you forget once. We ended up purchasing a second Felix because we love this mat so much and we use them daily. Highly recommend!

TL;DR: if you have a scarf & barf cat, you need this! I like the Caspar over the FelixMy cat is in constant danger of scarf and barf. I had been feeding him teaspoons of food at a time, but it would take an hour to get through one meal. I had reservations about using one of these mats, I was worried about how much work it would be to clean it. I had finally broke down and bought one to try. It has completely changed mealtime for my cat. It took about a week for him to get used to it (I lightly put his wet food into it, after a week I was able to pack it in). He does take some medication with his food, I just crush the pill up and mix it in, there are no issues with that. And as for the cleaning that I was so worried about? It's so much easier than I was afraid of. If I grab it right when he is done, left over bits of food just wash right out. If I forget about it, and the food dries, I just soak it for a bit, then it washes out.I got the Caspar first, which I like the best, and bought the Felix as a back up. He can eat faster in the Felix, and I worry it might be too fast, so that one is back up only.
