This traps a lot of food on the mat, meaning my cats don’t get the full amount that they need for a meal. It does slow them down, but they miss a lot, which also makes for additional cleanup. The green mat with a little round nubs works much better. There slowed down, but also able to get to all the food eventually.

Use them for feeding raw to my dogs. Finally found then pink one and it's sturdier than the blue colour. Easy to wash with a scrub brush.

I purchased this Lickimat to stop my cat eating his meal too quickly. This great mat really does the job keeping him busy with slowly eating his dinner and it stops him from instantly purging his meal from eating too quickly! Highly recommended 😹😹😹

Easy to clean and put food in but the little squares were a little too deep for my cat and a lot of food was getting left behind. But may be great for a bigger cat.

I just adopted two sister cats. One gobbles her food, the other is a slow eater. The fast eater would snarf her food, then go over to her sister’s bowl, push her out of the way, and finish her meal, too. I started giving the fast eater her wet food on the mat, and now the slow eater can finish her food in peace. Planning to get another mat. They are easy to clean with a soft brush after you soak them for a few minutes.

I received my Lickimats today, both were the Playdate style. My cats took to them right away and seemed to enjoy eating a different way from their usual bowls. I was hoping they'd get into the tight places because that's the point, the challenge of getting every bit of the food is supposed to be enjoyable for them. Fingers crossed they return to their Lickimats to finish off the remaining bits and pieces, but if they don't I'm still going to use these as I won't have to buy those expensive paper bowls anymore. I have yet to see how easy they'll be to clean, but I imagine if they're soaked in square container, maybe they can just be rinsed off. I really like the bright color choices. I think Lickimats is a really cool concept.

I ordered 2 of these. A Playdate and a Buddy. Both are well made and a good size. Both also slowed down his eating, but the Playdate works better than the Buddy for my cat. The food is easier for him to access with the Playdate and he's able to (slowly) clean the whole plate. Not so much with the Buddy. I end up tossing a lot of food with that one. I'm ditching the Buddy to order a second Playdate for him.

I usually do bone broth, wet food, little plain chunks of chicken, and sometimes mix in a couple of hard treats like for teeth cleaning. My cat will work at the mat for around 20-30 minutes (sometimes taking breaks in between). I make sure to take the mat away after an hour to ensure that she doesn't get sick from eating food that has been sitting out for too long. Not the most fun to clean but I use a stiff bristle brush to knock the stuff out from the little nubs-- after letting it sit in hot/soapy water for about 5 minutes.

I worked at a vet clinic for 4 years so learned a thing or 2 about cats along the way. One thing u learned is that licking and crouching while eating is a natural way to eat. So I said hey how about I try the likie mat. I bought it one day and use it once a day for her homemade food I make her once a month from my nutrition knowledge. She eats slower, licks it all up and loves the mat so much that there is even a small bite mark from one day when I forgot to put it away and she dragged the mat to me asking for homemade food on her mat. Plus its orange which is a easier color for cats to see to. Just like green and red. Ten out of ten

I have a cat that gulps his food so the vomit comes up before he finishes, ruining normal pet food eating for the other two. My first solution was slow feeding bowls. This resulted in the cats either not being able to get their food or at all (smaller crevices) or pawing it out and leaving food all over the floor (larger crevices). These mats are the solution; slows down eating and minimal food on the floor, like a few pieces a week minimal. I put them on a computer monitor stand to keep debris out and make feeding easier (this one has raised plastic in the back to adjust the length of the shelf...keeps the mats from sliding backward!), an added silicone mat underneath to keep them from sliding, and five months later I am confident this is the permanent solution to my pig of a cat!

I have a large breed cat who can be fussy on what biscuits he likes at different days and sometimes we end up with multiple bowls but with this quite large mat I can put different flavours for him to eat when he feels like it.The quality is great and with wet food it’s at least a bit more interesting to lick up and moderately easy to clean due to the material (you can bend it and the dry parts come out). However I prefer to use it for dry food.It is also useful for giving medications mixed with the ‘hand feed tubes’ as cat seems to think it is fun and forgets about the medication.

Ich bin froh, dass ich die Lickimats gefunden habe, die haben mir mein Hundehalterleben um einiges vereinfacht. Ob Gewitter, Silvester oder einfach nur so meine Hunde lieben die Dinger. Und ich auch, einfach in die Spülmaschine und fertig.

Super Beschäftigung für Katzen, sie fressen dadurch viel länger und müssen etwas dafür tun. Lässt sich auch sehr leicht reinigen. Top!
