LickiMat Tuff Playdate - Durable Licking Mat for Dogs, Grid Pattern

Does your pet get anxious during bath time, vet visits, or grooming salon sessions? Do they gulp down food as if they're in a race? Or perhaps they're a particularly active individual who gets bored easily and causes problems as a result, such as destroying objects around the house? If you answered yes to any of the above questions, the LickiMat Tuff Playdate lick mat for dogs and cats, available in beautiful, vibrant colors and with an interesting design, should find a place in your home. It will provide your pet with an engaging activity, and prolonged licking will release feel-good hormones, helping them cope with stress and anxiety. It will calm down even the most energetic and spirited four-legged companion. It's also a great way to have fun. Recommended by veterinarians, behaviorists, and breeders worldwide!

The LickiMat is an ideal product for four-legged food lovers who often struggle with excess weight. It allows you to serve a smaller amount of food without your pet even noticing, as the meal takes longer to finish than when served in a traditional way. Fewer calories per serving make it easier to combat excess weight. Licking food off the mat stimulates the salivary glands to produce more saliva. This increases appetite in picky eaters and helps keep your pet's teeth, gums, and tongue in good condition. The mat prevents food residue from remaining in your pet's mouth, thereby reducing bacterial buildup and the development of unpleasant odor.

The LickiMat is also a way to serve meals in an appealing form. You can put it in the microwave to heat up a meal on it. By placing it with its contents in the freezer, you can give your pet plenty of fun and a refreshing cool-down on hot summer days. You can place a not-so-tasty medication or dietary supplement on it, and your pet, busy licking the delicious contents, will swallow it without even noticing. It is perfectly suited for serving food in solid, soft, or liquid form. Great for thick and sticky treats such as pâtés, wet food, special dog-safe peanut butter, yogurt, mashed banana, or softened biscuits. The mat's rigid structure makes it easy to carry along with its contents. The nubs arranged in a grid pattern create pockets that allow you to separate different types of food from one another. They massage your pet's tongue, providing additional sensory stimulation. Non-slip feet prevent the mat from sliding on the surface.

When serving food on a LickiMat, you will certainly notice a change in your pet's behavior. Licking and sniffing activities have a calming and soothing effect on your pet's nervous system and satisfy their hunting instinct. These activities tire your pet out much faster than other forms of activity. This is especially important if your pet releases energy by, for example, destroying objects around them.
