Petlinks Purr-fect Paws Cat Litter Mat

I bought my first versions of these mats years ago; the rubber was thicker and you could curl it in your hands to shake the litter back in and it would easily hold the curled shape. Now, the rubber is very thin, and acts like a limp noodle. It Does not hold it’s shape when you try to pick it up or shake it in, making it likely any litter or trapped urine will spill over. They also (at least Chewy isn’t offering) appear to have discontinued the X-large size, which would cover more area under and around the litter box. Yes, it will still trap litter and urine in the circular depressions. But the thinness of the mat makes it clear it won’t last as long as my older, sturdier versions.

I won’t buy again. Only if I see the old, thicker version in a pet store—where it will cost double. Not nice, Petlinks. … more

This is so much better than the last mat that had what looked like little needles! I'm sure that's what my cat felt like and would use any combinations of fancy steps to get into her box without stepping on all those little needles, including jumping over the mat completely! I put this one down and she walked around it for about a week, still jumping over it. One day she stepped out of the box and on to the mat. Stopped dead in her tracks, looked down and walked the full length of her new mat, as if to say, OK this is ok! Gathers the mess, just as it says. My kitty is a re- home baby who is 13 and front declared so I don't have the scratching problem on the mat. She does try to scratch everything This is so much better than the last mat that had what looked like little needles!

This mat is very good at catching kitty litter when kitty steps out of box, but even though I've put it lengthwise outside the box, there's still litter that goes past it. Maybe I should have bought the bigger size. In any case, it's better than before without a mat.

I bought this when my cats other litter mat needed to be replaced and I couldn’t remember my other one. This litter mat Is one of the worst ones I have ever had! With my cat scratching and trying to clean up her litter it tore apart I had it for two weeks and I ended up throwing it in the garbage because it kept tearing apart

While it’s not perfect for collecting all the cat litter before your cats stomp it everywhere, it does work nicely and is incredibly easy to clean if you just through it in a tub of water and bleach.

I love this mat- catches a lot of the litter so it's not all over the floor. However, I should have measured better in my head- it is a little too small. I will be ordering the bigger one to catch more litter. That is my fault tho- it is a great mat. And I just dump it over into the box and poof it's clean!

I bought this for our cat to jump down on after using her top entrance little box. She clearly despises how it feels on her feet because she will literally try to leap past it onto the hardwood floor therefore literally sending litter flying. I created obstacles / positioned her box to where she has to jump down onto the mat and even when she jumps onto the mat after getting out of her box it literally only catches a few grains of litter and the rest is left behind like little breadcrumbs throughout the house where she walks after. It’s beyond frustrating to have to sweep multiple times a day because the mat does nothing. To make matters worse it’s soooo freaking difficult to wash.

I’ve tried the recommended washing instructions and the mat doesn’t get clean especially in the little litter catching indents. I also tried literally hosing it down and doesn’t do anything. It dries horribly leaving hard water behind. (*We live in UT and generally have very hard water no matter what) … more

Got this litter mat because my cat constantly kicks up litter and I'm tired of my floor being covered in it. Mat itself doesn't really do enough from keeping the litter off the floor for the money. The square shape isn't the most optimal for the job. Maybe my litter box is too big for it or I didn't place it in the right spot but even the litter that does fall into the holes of the mat eventually gets kicked out onto the floor when my cat jumps in her litter box.

This product does a great job catching litter from the paws. My boys are really messy! Highly recommend this product.

I love this mat! It’s great at keeping the litter on the floor at bay and it is heavy enough to not get pulled up when my cats scratch out side the box! I recommend!
