Give your cat something better to do during grooming, nail trims and vet-day prep. This square silicone lick mat is made for the way cats eat. Spread on their favourite wet food or lickable treat and let their rough little tongue do the rest.
Why cat owners love it
-
Slows down fast eaters: the textured surface turns a quick gulp into minutes of steady licking.
-
Something to focus on: spread something tasty and give your cat a job while you brush, apply flea treatments or trim nails.
-
Whisker-friendly: the flat, open surface means no deep bowl sides brushing against sensitive whiskers.
-
Suction cups: stick firmly to tiles, benchtops, floors or the side of the laundry tub, so it stays put while you groom.
-
Flexible silicone: soft, durable and easy to wipe clean. It won't crack like plastic.
-
Great for indoor cats: adds daily enrichment to help beat boredom.
How to use
Spread a thin layer of wet cat food, pâté, lickable cat treats or plain cooked chicken purée across the mat. For longer-lasting enrichment, freeze it for 1–2 hours before serving. Avoid foods that aren't safe for cats, such as onion, garlic, chocolate or grapes. Always supervise your cat and remove the mat if they start chewing it.
Care
Dishwasher safe, or hand wash in warm, soapy water. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Air dry.

FAQ
Do cats use lick mats?
Yes. Cats are natural lickers, and a lick mat gives them a slower, more engaging way to eat. It's handy for fast eaters and as a distraction during grooming.
What can I put on a cat lick mat?
Wet cat food, pâté, lickable cat treats or plain cooked chicken purée all work well. Skip dairy, which many cats don't digest well.
Can I put the lick mat in the freezer?
Yes. Freezing the food on the mat makes it last longer and is a cool treat on hot Australian days.
