Vinny's Favourite

Lickimat Wobble

As a puppy, Vinny is still adjusting to being home alone (well the cat is there too!) and may experience anxiety or boredom when during his time alone. The LickiMat Wobble has a perfect solution to keep Vinny entertained and calm while I'm at work. I simply put his favourite treats or some peanut butter inside with some water and freeze it overnight. He is obsessed with ice and will play with it for a very very long time. It is advised that the first time your pet uses it, you should supervise just in case they are a destructive chewer! Luckily, Vinny couldn't tear apart a toy if he tried.

The challenge-reward-fun experience of the LickiMat Wobble has kept Vinny engaged and occupied, reducing the risk of destructive behavior due to anxiety or boredom. Additionally, the slower feeding and healthier eating habits promoted by the LickiMat Wobble can benefit Vinny's overall health and well-being.

It has been a great stress relief for myself to know that the LickiMat Wobble has been helpful for my little Vinny. With its many benefits, it's a great investment for any dog owner looking to provide their furry friend with a healthy and engaging activity.

Hailey's Favourite

Lickimat Classic

Do you often worry about your pets when you leave them at home for a few hours? Don't stress; you are not alone. I am often concerned about leaving my 15-month-old Golden Retriever, Hailey, at home. I have had experience with her alone at home, causing deep anxiety and boredom, which turned into loud barking and crying, leading to neighbouring complaints.

Then I discovered LickiMat Classic! The LickiMat Classic comes in three types of surfaces suitable for different foods for cats and dogs of all ages. The main benefits of LickiMats are reducing anxiety and boredom, improving oral health and promoting slow feeding.

I usually smear a generous amount of peanut butter, drizzled with Hailey's favourite snacks. I then freeze them in the freezer overnight for the ultimate time killer.

What is the reasoning behind it, you ask? LickiMat promotes extended licking action, which releases a calming hormone in dogs and cats. And just like that, no more pets with anxiety.

In addition, pair the LickiMat with an Indoor or Outdoor Keeper to keep the LickiMats stable and prevent pets from chewing them. In my case, the Keeper stops Hailey from leaving food residue and slobber on the floor.

Vinny's Favourite

Lickimat Slodog

If you're a dog owner looking for a reliable solution to slow down your furry friend's eating habits, then look no further than the SloDog Slow Feeder from LickiMat. My six month old puppy Vinny has issues with bowls and eating, so I can attest to the effectiveness and convenience of this unique product.

One of the standout features of the SloDog Slow Feeder is its ability to present all the food in one place, without any maze-like obstacles. This makes it easy for Vinny to access his food without feeling frustrated or stressed. Additionally, it can hold up to two cups of dry or wet food, making it perfect for Vinny's needs.

Another great aspect of the SloDog Slow Feeder is how easy it is to use. All you have to do is pour in the food and shake it around, and it will disperse evenly very quickly. Plus, it's dishwasher safe and easy to clean, making it a breeze to maintain.

The SloDog Slow Feeder is an elegant and unique product that has a patent-pending design. Developed by vets, this feeder can help prevent digestive problems, stomach upset, excess gas, indigestion, vomiting, and other issues that can arise from eating too quickly.

One thing that sets the SloDog Slow Feeder apart from other slow feeders is its lack of lumps or obstructions that can frustrate dogs. Other slow feeder designs can result in dogs tipping their bowl over to get food quicker, but the SloDog Slow Feeder avoids that problem altogether.

I would highly recommend the SloDog Slow Feeder from LickiMat to any dog owner looking for a reliable solution to slow down their pet's eating habits. Not only is it effective and convenient, but it's also a great investment in your dog's health and wellbeing. And, as an added bonus, it can even be used by your cat too!
