Imitates the hunting behavior of cats – LickiMat Buddy enriches mealtime for cats by allowing more activity, similar to what they would experience in the wild. LickiMat Buddy is a whisker-friendly feeding mat that enables your cat to eat in a crouched position with a full view of their surroundings, all while reducing stress. The pockets are designed to encourage licking to extract food and slow down eating, making meals or treats last longer.

LickiMat has many benefits:
• Perfect for dry, wet, and raw feeding as well as for slow feeding.
• A great way to prepare long-lasting treats with pet food and safe human food.
• Excellent for calming pets during crate training, vet visits, grooming, car rides, storms, and fireworks.
• Repeated licking has a soothing effect on your pet and releases calming hormones in the body.
• No overfeeding, as with LickiMat, a small treat lasts longer.
• Licking enhances the sense of taste, allowing the pet to enjoy just a small amount of food.
• Promotes fresh breath by scraping bacteria and undigested food particles off the tongue.
• Stimulates saliva production and helps clean the tongue, teeth, and gums.
• Saliva production can aid digestion as it contains enzymes like amylase.

LickiMat Classic Buddy for cats is perfectly suited as a slow feeder and as a treat with its cross-patterned surface. When used with tasty soft food, such as cat soft snacks, wet food, raw food, fish, and yogurt, it creates long-lasting, delicious, lickable treats.
