REDUCES ANXIETY, BOREDOM AND DESTRUCTIVE BEHAVIOUR – LickiMat helps calm and soothe your pet as they enjoy their favourite treat by helping release endorphins through the promotion of licking. Great for when you leave home, great for stressful times such vet visits, injections, bath time, nail clipping, injury recovery as well as thunderstorms and fireworks. Please remember to supervise your pet when first introducing them to LickiMat.
TUFF AND CHEW RESISTANT – the LickiMat Tuff is designed for teething puppies and naughty dogs that would chew anything as well as the convenience of using the dishwasher. You must supervise and train all puppies and chewers.
RECOMMENDED FOR BOTH DOGS & CATS – the LickiMat textured patterns are designed to please the tongues of both dogs and cats and to work with all manner of treats and foods, ranging from yogurt, peanut butter and all manner of spreadable treats to raw, wet, dry and liquid foods. The licking action enhances the sense of taste, allowing your pet to enjoy just a small amount of food. LickiMats are also perfect for adding supplements and medications to treats.
PROMOTES LICKING – the LickiMat surfaces promote pleasurable licking for both dogs and cats. 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 odour causing bacteria off your pet’s tongue, promoting fresher breath.
SERVE HEALTHY TREATS – the LickiMat allows you to serve a wide variety of treats: yogurt, peanut butter, purees, spreads and all manner of organic and healthy pet approved treats. The magic of LickiMat is that challenging your pet to lick the treat out of the patterned surface in order to be rewarded by the treat, slows the process dramatically and prolongs their enjoyment. Less calories, healthier treats and longer duration.
SLOWER FEEDING & HEALTHIER FEEDING – the LickiMat can be used to promote slower eating, which in turn reduces bloating and improves digestion. A great alternative to slow feed bowls. You can even freeze food and treats on the mat for slower and more enjoyable feeding.Â
ALTERNATIVE TO FEEDING BOWL – the LickiMat is a perfect replacement for all cat bowls and there are a wide variety of designs and colours to suit your preferences. The LickiMat is also a perfect dog bowl replacement for small and medium sized dog breeds. You can serve raw, wet, dry and liquid food at the same time without making a mess.

Feeding Guide
Feeding Guide
Adult Raw Feeding Guide
Adult dogs should be fed between 2-3% of their IDEAL bodyweight. If your dog needs to gain or lose weight, then work out the appropriate amount for what they should weigh, and this will assist with weight loss or weight gain as needed. This range given is also dependant on your dog’s activity levels.
Generally, an adult dog is classed as a dog 1 year and above, however larger breed dogs can continue to grow for up to 18 months to 2 years old so you should feed more, according to their growth rate and reduce the amount to 2-3% once they have finished growing.
2-3% of the ideal bodyweight. A range is given rather than a set amount so that depending on factors such as your dog’s activity levels or even just their own eating habits, you can add or reduce the amount within this range according to your dog’s individual needs. I usually advise owners to start with 2.5% and then you can adjust accordingly if needed.
Dogs ideal weight x 0.02 = 2% in grams per day
Dogs ideal weight x 0.03 = 3% in grams per day
Example Calculation:
For a 15kg adult dog of ideal weight the calculation would be:
15 x 0.025 (2.5%) = 0.375 (375g per day)
Puppy/Kitten Raw Feeding Guide
Puppies and kittens need a higher amount of protein as they grow, as protein is the component to developing new tissue within the body and also provides energy which they burn a lot of during the growth process and obviously because they tend to be particularly lively when younger! They should be fed according to their actual weight, so it’s important to weigh them regularly to ensure that they are getting the required amount as they grow.
7-10 weeks – 8-10%: Current weight x 0.08 to 0.1 = grams per day
10-16 weeks – 7-8%: Current weight x 0.07 to 0.08 = grams per day
16-20 weeks – 6-7%: Current weight x 0.06 to 0.07 = grams per day
20-24 weeks – 5-6%: Current weight x 0.05 to 0.06 = grams per day
24-36 weeks – 4-5%: Current weight x 0.04 to 0.05 = grams per day
36-56 weeks – 3-4%: Current weight x 0.03 to 0.04 = grams per day
Can drop to 2-3% after 52 weeks and follow Adult feeding guide if your dog has reached adult weight at this stage.
56-68 weeks – 2.5-3.5%: Current weight x 0.025 to 0.035 = grams per day
68+ weeks – 2-3% Current weight x 0.02 to 0.03 = grams per day
Example Calculation:
For a 12 week old puppy weighing 8kg the calculation range would be:
8 x 0.07 (7%) = 0.56 (560g per day)
8 x 0.08 (8%) = 0.64 (640g per day)
In this example I would suggest feeding midway of this range at 600g per day to allow for adjustment either side depending on their activity levels and eating habits.
