SnugglyCat Ripple Rug Cat Activity Play Mat

I was hesitant to purchase this because of the price tag, but my boy loves it! He was rubbing all over it before it was even out of the packaging! It’s made play time more fun because he loves hunting through the holes (and less running around for me). The material is great for scratching which keeps him off my carpets :) I noticed him start to get a little bored of it, so I changed the ripple pattern and BAM brand new!! It’s also super easy to fold up so you could remove it entirely then bring it back for increased excitement. Overall, very satisfied with this purchase!

We have a cat that has hidden behind corners and doors ... only to jump out at any object moving by.... so I had a feeling she would love this. I was so right! As soon as I "assembled" this and laid on the floor she was inside and ready to "attack"... she stayed in there for a long time... and continues to do so. My other cat isn't so sure about it yet... But he never makes any moves without thinking about it for a while.. LOL

My sister's birthday was coming up, and since we do not exchange gifts anymore, I wanted to get her something for her new munchkin cat. I found this activity mat on Chewy's web site and read all the reviews. The reviews were all great! Most of them mentioned that although this mat was on the expensive side, it was well-worth it, since it brought so much fun to their cats. My sister's cat loves her new mat and I am delighted I found such a wonderful birthday gift for my sister, and her cat, Rylee.

I have 2 feral cats and 2 indoor only cats. The feral cats are seniors and the indoor ones are 1 and 2 years old. This was bought to try and keep the 1 year old busy and help the 2 year old to learn to play with her. When I got the toy, I was confused about how to set it up. The velcro would stick to the bottom piece, but I couldn't keep it from collapsing. I have a childs rocking chair that I set the upper part up on top of and put some of the holes in the rug through the arms and rockers of the chair to hold it up so they can play inside of the set up and it wouldn't collapse. They had fun with it this way and played going in and out of the holes and batting at each other. If I put toys inside I have 2 feral cats and 2 indoor only cats.

If I put toys inside of the tunnel, the one year old would play with the toys but as soon as they were outside of the tunnel, she lost interest. The two older cats didn't seem interested, but I believe that had to do with the younger two dominating the toy. I don't think I would pay full price for this, if I had the choice. I did get it when it was on sale for 38.00 and still think that I wouldn't pay that again. I believe that the idea is a great idea, but the design needs some help. It needs to be supported somehow so that it doesn't collapse as soon as the cats jump on it. Great for supervised fun...but not for a play alone toy. . I will post some picture soon... … more

This is worth every penny. Mu cat has a blast with it. He provides me with many laughs as he tries to get balls and such from inside the tunnels. He has fun running through and even snoozing on the tunnels. His energy level wasn’t lacking before but now he has even more energy! He frequently sits on the mat asking me to play! Highly recommend!!

My cat LOVES the ripple rug. I was looking for ways to stimulate and exercise my indoor-only cat that also doesn't take up space in my one-bedroom apartment. He took to it immediately and almost never leaves it. My favorite feature is the type of material! Perfect for clawing, this has helped keep him off of the other furniture, he uses it more than his scratch post. Definitely worth the money!

My cat has been obsessed with it since we got it. He sleeps on It most of the day. I bought one for my MIL for Christmas and my cat tore through the wrapping paper and the package to try and get to the new mat. It’s the only present he’s even torn into. And my MIL has like 7 cats who all LOVE it. Recommended to a friend and both of her cats are obsessed with it too. Amazing mat. Totally worth the price

I was really looking forward to replacing the mangled paper bags around the house with this rug. It has not done the trick for my cat. Even right out of the box, I can't get it to hold a shape, even after watching videos and instructions and trying different set ups. One pounce onto it and it collapses and does not spring back. The cat is mildly entertained if I interact with him and keep holding open the holes. It seemed like a great idea for the hider, stalker but has not been a success at my house. It now sits with paper towel tubes stuck in the small holes as support beams or kitty naps on top of the folds. That is one thing that is true about the product as in the picture.

I recently had to make the decision to keep my cats fully indoors, rather than indoor/outdoor, due to a marauding predator that showed up out of nowhere who beats up on all the homed cats in the 'hood. Having seen the ripple rug being thoroughly enjoyed in a friend's FB post, I thought I'd give it a whirl. Initially, both my cats enjoyed diving into the holes, but shortly after that it became my older cat's favorite sleeping spot. He is ALWAYS plopped in the center of it, snoozing away. Another week passed and my 1.5 year old cat decided she wanted some of that action and now they playfully vie for the opportunity to sleep in the middle of this thing.

However, when I bring out the chase toy on the string they both prefer chasing after and batting at it while they are on the ripple rug. I think they would dart around in the holes if they hadn't flattened it out. Every once in a while I try to arrange it so they can use it as it was intended, but, and herein lies my fault with it, it has too many velcro attachments to keep it standing up so they can access the holes. Otherwise, it was a great purchase. … more

Based on the great reviews, I thought this was going to be a great product! It is way too flimsy so the top layer does not stay up. My cats can barely get in there, unless I hold it up or reset it every few minutes. If I could return it, I would. So disappointed.
