LickiMat Classic Felix has textured patterns which are designed to please the tongues of cats and to work with all manner of treats and foods, ranging from spreadable treats, yoghurt and cream cheese to raw, wet, dry and liquid foods. The licking action enhances the sense of taste, allowing your cat to enjoy just a small amount of food. LickiMat Classic Felix is also perfect for adding supplements and medications to treats. LickiMat Classic Felix helps calm and soothe your cat as they enjoy their favourite treat by helping release endorphins through the promotion of licking. Great for when you leave home, stressful times such as vet visits, injections, injury recovery, thunderstorms, and fireworks. The licking action generates saliva that helps protect your cat’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 cat’s tongue, promoting fresher breath. LickiMat Classic Felix can be used to promote slower eating, which in turn reduces bloating and improves digestion. It is a great alternative to slow-feeding bowls. You can even freeze food and treats on the mat for slower and more enjoyable feeding.
