FAQs

What can I spread on my cat's LickiMat?

Virtually anything your cat likes. You can improvise and experiment to your heart’s delight.

There is plenty of room on a LickiMat for you to spread different recipes to see what your pet likes best. Odds are high that they will like all of them because the treat is combined with a new licking experience. There is a Recipe page for all products.

What are the more popular spreads for my cat's LickiMat?

You can use the back of a spoon or a spatula to:

Spread your cat’s favourite wet food on a LickiMat;
Spread cream cheese, patés or yogurt on a LickiMat;
Press fish into a LickiMat (Sardines, Tuna, salmon) - the oilier, the better;
Press minced meat into a LickiMat;
Spread nutritional gels on a LickiMat;

If your cat likes raw or cooked vegetables, you can spread them on a LickiMat (pumpkin, potato, kale, carrots).

Where can I find recipes for LickiMats that my cat will enjoy?

You can click on the link here for the recipe inspiraton. There are also a lot of recipes on Instagram, twitter and social media posted by pet owners, dog trainers, pet shops, and vets.

Can I use the LickiMat as a feeder for my cat?

Absolutely. Cats prefer feeding off a LickiMat compared to feeding bowls. The Slomo™ is designed to be a combination wet and dry feeder.

Should I try more than one type of LickiMat with my cat?

Absolutely. The different surfaces suit different types of treats: slurry, solid, chunky, liquid and the like. The different surfaces also respond differently to pressure from your cat's tongue. You should experiment with the different surfaces: Buddy, Playdate, Soother or try combination surfaces such as Casper and Felix.

Will my cat chew the LickiMat?

It is very unlikely. Nearly all cats are interested in the food or treat, and not the rubber. Please make sure to have the correct food type on the LickiMat you are using. We have seen a few classic LickiMats with the corners showing chew marks. Owners of cats prone to chewing anything and everything should keep a close eye, or use the LickiMat Tuff or Slomo that has a Polypropylene base.

How do I clean the LickiMat?

Most LickiMats are dishwasher safe. Check the product page for your LickiMat to be sure.

The Classic LickiMats should be washed under the sink after every use. Scrubbing with a brush is not normally necessary. Shake off excess water and turn them over to let them dry naturally.

It is essential to dry the LickiMat after washing to remove any moisture.
