The LickiMat story begins in Australia with the OH Bowl®. Concerned by rising dental costs and the associated health risks, the founders consulted with veterinarians and sought to enhance oral hygiene for their dog.
Their solution, the OH Bowl (Oral Health Bowl), ingeniously integrated tongue-scraping technology into mealtime, ensuring consistent oral care without extra effort. Building upon this concept, the LickiMat range expanded, transforming the entire rubber surface into a tool for engaging pets in licking activities. This not only promoted oral health but also provided mental stimulation, as the licking action released calming endorphins.
As the LickiMat gained popularity, its versatility became evident, with uses ranging from slow feeding to anxiety reduction. Feedback from pet owners and trainers fueled innovation, resulting in specialized designs for both dogs and cats. Surprisingly, cats embraced the concept, benefiting from the same oral and mental health advantages.
Over time, LickiMat's impact has extended beyond oral care to encompass various enrichment activities, from training aids to raw food dispensers. With numerous products and variants catering to diverse needs, LickiMat continues to redefine pet enrichment, offering solutions that promote well-being and strengthen the bond between pets and their guardians.
