Soother Classic Turquoise
Reduce your pet’s anxiety, boredom and destructive behavior
Lickimat helps your pet to calm down while enjoying a treat, releasing endorphins by stimulating licking. The products are ideal to use when you leave home, for stressful times such as vet visits, injections, bath time, nail clippings, recovery from injuries, thunderstorms and fireworks. Remember to supervise your pet when you first introduce them to Lickimat.
The products are designed to please the tongues of both dogs and cats and to work with all kinds of treats and foods. For example, you can use yogurt, peanut butter and all kinds of spreadable treats to raw, wet, dry and liquid foods. Licking enhances the sense of taste, allowing your pet to enjoy only a small amount of food.
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 odor-causing bacteria from your pet’s tongue, promoting fresher breath.
Lickimat’s products can be used to promote slower eating, which in turn reduces bloating and improves digestion. You can even freeze food and treats on the mat for slower and more enjoyable feeding.

The world famous LickiMat® has been designed in Australia. The vets kept talking about how many cats calm themselves down by constant licking, and the manufacturer saw their own dog come back from a stay in a boarding house with blisters on her feet from excessive licking caused by separation anxiety. Subsequently, tests began that dogs could be tempted to lick something else to ease their anxiety and they discovered foods like peanut butter and yogurt for dogs and tuna oil for cats. A normal food bowl wouldn't work because it doesn't take time to empty, so they started with a few prototypes. The rest is history.
The manufacturer found during testing that the best time to use a LickiMat® was just before departure. In this way, the dog (the original test was mainly with dogs) was kept busy while the owner left. Also, the owner feels less anxious about leaving the dog, knowing the dog had a healthy treat and would be busy for a long time. It also emerged that a less fearful dog means a less fearful parent of owner!
It became the mission to train the pet's brain that leaving home was a time for fun and pleasure, not stress and sadness. For the pet - and the owner!
