Authentic LickiMat® Boredom Buster for Dogs and Cats. Perfect for Pet Treats, Yogurt, Peanut Butter, Spreads, Raw Food, Liquid Food, Pet Food. Slow Feeder, Healthy and Fun Alternative to a Slow Feed Bowl. Available in a Variety of Colours.

REDUCES ANXIETY, BOREDOM AND DESTRUCTIVE BEHAVIOUR – LickiMat helps calm and soothe your pet as they enjoy their favourite treat by helping release endorphins through the promotion of licking. Great for when you leave home, great for stressful times such vet visits, injections, bath time, nail clipping, injury recovery as well as thunderstorms and fireworks. Please remember to supervise your pet when first introducing them to LickiMat.

RECOMMENDED FOR BOTH DOGS & CATS – the LickiMat textured patterns are designed to please the tongues of both dogs and cats and to work with all manner of treats and foods, ranging from yogurt, peanut butter and all manner of spreadable treats to raw, wet, dry and liquid foods. The licking action enhances the sense of taste, allowing your pet to enjoy just a small amount of food. LickiMats are also perfect for adding supplements and medications to treats.

PROMOTES LICKING – the LickiMat surfaces promote pleasurable licking for both dogs and cats. The licking action generates saliva that helps protect your pet’s 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 pet’s tongue, promoting fresher breath.

SERVE HEALTHY TREATS – the LickiMat allows you to serve a wide variety of treats: yogurt, peanut butter, purees, spreads and all manner of organic and healthy pet approved treats. The magic of LickiMat is that challenging your pet to lick the treat out of the patterned surface in order to be rewarded by the treat, slows the process dramatically and prolongs their enjoyment. Less calories, healthier treats and longer duration.

SLOWER FEEDING & HEALTHIER FEEDING – 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 BOWL – the LickiMat is a perfect replacement for all cat bowls and there are a wide variety of designs and colours to suit your preferences. The LickiMat is also a perfect dog bowl replacement for small and medium sized dog breeds. You can serve raw, wet, dry and liquid food at the same time without making a mess.

For fun pet interaction, three designs are available. Lickimat Buddy, with its cross maze design, is perfect for thick sticky treats like doggy peanut butter, wet food or soggy biscuits.

Why Biothane®?

Our collars and leads are exclusively made using BioThane®, the finest quality strapping material for dogs. BioThane® is manufactured in the USA and is highly durable, easy to clean, waterproof, and stronger than leather. Despite these qualities, it retains a soft and flexible texture similar to leather, making it effortless to maintain. We take pride in using this superior product, which is now available in Australia.

How to care for my product?

Maintaining Biothane is simple, and Biothane USA recommends using a mild mixture of warm soapy water to clean it. Since the color is injected into the PVC coating, there is no need to worry about color fading or loss of texture.

To prevent dirt and grime buildup on the BioThane® strapping, wipe it down with a damp cloth. For the hardware, avoid using wire brushes or tools that may damage the coating, and don't machine wash as it may scratch the hardware. After use in wet conditions, dry or hang the hardware to dry.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Collar measuring guide?
  1. Use a flexible measuring tape or a piece of string to measure your dog's neck where the collar would normally sit.
  2. Make sure to measure around the widest part of the neck, close to the base of the skull, where the collar will sit.
  3. Take note of the measurement in centimeters or inches, depending on your preference.
  4. Choose the appropriate collar size based on the weight of your dog and the collar sizes we offer.
  5. Let us know the exact measurement of your dog's neck in the product notes. We will make the collar custom to your dog's neck size.
  6. If the collar is for a puppy, please let us know so we can adjust the measurements accordingly.

Here are the collar sizes we offer:

  • 1/2" 13mm: for dogs under 10kg (shih tzu, Jack Russell, Chihuahua, Dachshund, etc.)
  • 5/8" 16mm: for dogs under 15kg (Poodle, Cocker Spaniel, French Bulldog, etc.)
  • 3/4" 19mm: for dogs 15kg+ (Australian Cattle Dog, Border Collie, Labrador, Rottweiler, working dogs, etc.)
  • 1" 25mm: for dogs 15kg+ (Australian Cattle Dog, Border Collie, Labrador, Rottweiler, working dogs, etc.)

Remember, a properly fitting collar should be snug but not too tight, with enough room to fit two fingers between the collar and your dog's neck. A custom-fit collar will provide the best comfort and support for your dog. If you have any questions or concerns about measuring your dog's neck or selecting a collar size, please don't hesitate to contact us for assistance.
