Hyper Pet IQ Treat Lick mat for Dogs, Dog Slow Feeder & Cat Lick mats | Great Alternative to Slow Feeder Bowls & Feeders | Perfect Dog Licking mat, Cat Puzzle & Enrichment Toys

✓ My puppy is scared of baths and it is almost impossible to get him into a bath tub. This licki mat is my life saver! Now, I can't imagine bath time for my 6 month old Goldendoodle puppy without this! ✓ This product is of a good quality. Dishwasher safe. ✓ I smear some dog safe peanut butter and yogurt on this mat and then freeze it. I take it out of the freezer right before my puppy's bathtime and lure him into the bathtub using this. He becomes fascinated by the treats in this mat and is totally focussed on licking it that he forgets that I am bathing him. Gives me a good 20 minute window to bath and clean him! ✓This product does not have suction cups to keep it in place. That does not bother me since I like to hold it in my hand and move it around so that my puppy moves accordingly. This makes it easier for me to wash him. But I think it will be a problem to those who are looking forward to use this as a crate training tool. ✓ My puppy loves to chew and shred things in general but he has not succeeded in shredding this mat apart. So far he has only been focused on licking rather than chewing this mat. I make it a point to remove this mat once he is finished so that he does not get a chance to ruin it. ✓ Also, I use this mat solely to help my puppy through bathtime which is once of his most stressful situations; thus increasing the effectiveness of this tool in reducing his anxiety. In case this mat is available to him all the time, he will eventually get bored of it, therefore reducing it's effectiveness during stressful situations. This is one important point to keep in mind in case you are using this licki mat as a tool to reduce anxiety!

I bought different lick mats for my cats to try with their raw food. The cats enjoy using their lick mats and it slows them down so another cat doesn’t have as much a chance to steal from them. It seems to have a nice calming effect while eating and has been good for overall anxiety throughout the day for one of my cats which came as a surprise. I like how these mats are stiffer so easier to have them stay up rather than fall over in the top rack dishwasher but I wish it was slightly smaller to fit a little better or I wish it can go in the bottom rack of the dishwasher like a plate. I do wish it didn’t have the four quadrants and instead be a little smaller. I put the food in the middle and try to get to the quadrants the best I can instead of the middle because it’s hardest for them to get food out of the middle part.

I've used this mat with my two dogs and cats and they all love it. This is a great mat for picky eaters since there are four sections (but to be honest, I don't think pets are as picky as kids). I originally bought these because they were the biggest and for the best value. I've since ordered ones with a ton of suction cups on the bottom that is smaller and I do prefer those for my dog that likes to slide the mat everywhere and for the shower for bathing. The suction on this mat is almost non existent but works fine for one of my dogs and my cat. I will say that the material is not too flimsy which makes it harder to clean.

*** ??? *** <b> Was asked to review “suction power” as one aspect of this product, implying that this listing is either mistakenly or purposefully mis-applied, and either used to be or may in the future change to a vacuum cleaner or something. Very strange, watch yourself with trusting the reviews. </b> *** ??? *** Purchased these HyperPet IQ Treat Mats and my cat is already enjoying them after they arrived today. I looked over other reviews beforehand so note: - they do NOT come with suction cups, - I use mine on a non slip rubber food mat with a lip to catch food as my cat is a messy eater, - really mush that food in there and spread it about. We recently got a young cat. For the past 2 months, she’s been eating her 3 oz can of wet food + a touch of dry in about 6 minutes or less and then making gulping motions for an hour while she determinedly holds it down, all the while sobbing for more, jumping on the counters in a frenzy, and attacking every electrical cable she can find to get my attention. I had visions of mourning over regularly stained apartment carpet and ruined electronics, so I did my research and bought these preemptively. Thank you, thank you, thank you! It now takes her almost 30 minutes to snuffle all the flecks and drips of food out, wash her paws and face, and she’s now settled on the couch taking a happy satisfied nap. This is such a relief, seriously.

This is the best type for just licking around

Came as advertised. Frozen peanut butter is a good treat to spread on. My use of in the bathroom will not work because suction cups on bottom do not work. The pads slide around.

I bought 15 of these. My cat gets her licky pad three times a day and I was always stressed I’d run out of clean ones. I ordered a stupid amount because they were only $5 and they are really sturdy. They’ll last forever. 10/10 highly recommend (for cats) large dogs will destroy these and it might become a chocking hazard for the big chewers.

we use this for our bengal kitten churu treats - great

Product seems a lot more robust than one I experienced when my dog was younger which she just effortless tore apart. This one is much better, more weight, generally stronger and easy to clean. She patiently licks off all the pate I spread. No attempt to do anything with the mat. She is older now. Her younger self would probably have treated it more like a toy. I would have liked a bit more information about the material it is made from. I did do a search on line to satisfy myself this is not harmful.

Es muy resistente, fácil de limpiar y no guarda olores. Sirve muy bien para perros pequeños.

Ripped of by my puppy in the first meal itself.

I bought this for my food-gorging cat. I smush the wet food into it and let her spend the morning licking it out. I'm not sure how good it is for her to lick silicone, but it's definitely a way to control her consumption rate. It's easy to wash and pliable.

These are great just as described and easy to clean
