Key Benefits:
MIMICS CAT'S PREDATORY FEEDINGĀ ā LickiMat Casper and Felix enrich feeding time for cats by allowing greater activity as they would experience in the wild. LickiMat Casper and Felix stop "whisker stress" and allow your cat to feed in a crouching position with a full view of their surroundings, reducing stress and anxiety. The pockets are designed to promote licking action to extract food and slow down eating and make meals or treats last a long time.
REDUCES ANXIETY, BOREDOM AND DESTRUCTIVE BEHAVIOURĀ ā LickiMat helps calm and soothe your cat as they enjoy their favourite treat by helping release endorphins through the promotion of licking. Great for when you leave home and for stressful times such as vet visits, injections, injury recovery, thunderstorms, and fireworks. Please remember to supervise your pet when first introducing them to LickiMat.
RECOMMENDED FOR BOTH DOGS & CATSĀ ā the LickiMat textured patterns are designed to please the tongues of cats and to work with all manner of treats and foods, ranging from spreadable treats, yogurt and cream cheese to raw, wet, dry and liquid foods. The licking action enhances the sense of taste, allowing your cat to enjoy just a small amount of food. LickiMats are also perfect for adding supplements and medications to treats.
PROMOTES LICKINGĀ ā the LickiMat surfaces encourage pleasurable licking for cats. The licking action generates saliva that helps protect your catās teeth and gums and can aid digestion as saliva contains enzymes such as Amylase. The natural rubber surface also scrapes food particles and odour causing bacteria off your catās tongue, promoting fresher breath.
SERVE HEALTHY TREATSĀ ā the LickiMat allows you to serve a wide variety of treats: sardines, yogurt, purees, spreads and all organic and healthy pet-approved treats. The magic of LickiMat is that challenging your cat to lick the treat out of the patterned surface in order to be rewarded with the treat, slows the process dramatically and prolongs their enjoyment. Fewer calories, healthier treats and longer duration.
SLOWER FEEDING & HEALTHIER FEEDINGĀ ā the LickiMat can be used to promote slower eating, which in turn reduces bloating and improves digestion. A great alternative to slow-feed bowls. You can even freeze food and treats on the mat for slower and more enjoyable feeding.
ALTERNATIVE TO FEEDING BOWLĀ ā the LickiMat is a perfect replacement for all cat bowls and there are a wide variety of designs and colours to suit your preferences. You can serve raw, wet, dry and liquid food at the same time without making a mess.
For fun pet interaction,Ā twoĀ designs are available. LickimatĀ Felix, with itsĀ roundedĀ pocketĀ design, is perfect for presenting both dry and wet cat food along with soft and liquidĀ treats likeĀ yogurt, purees, gravyĀ or liquid treats and foods.
