Why does my furbaby need a snuffle mat?
Forager combines the health benefits of a slow feeder with the enrichment benefits of a snuffle mat; slowing down their eating to prevent bloating, choking, or vomiting, while burning energy & providing mental stimulation.
What types of food & treats can you use on the Forager Mat?
We recommend only using dry food, treats, or dryer veggies like carrots in the slow feeder bowl. For extra nutrition, pair with SoftSupps. We recommend Calming, Probiotic, or Multifunctional.
What is the difference between the Meadow Mat and the Forest Mat?
Our Meadow Mats are easy/intermediate difficulty by providing pockets for food to fall into and visual cues for pets to find. Our Forest Mat is the most challenging because pets must only use their nose to find food.
Should I get the Forager Bowl or Forager Mat?
We recommend having both for different reasons! For an everyday slow feeder or food bowl replacement, we recommend the Forager Mat. For a travel bowl or interactive play, we recommend the Forager Bowl that you can pack and store easily in your home!
How am I supposed to clean the Forager Mat?
Forager Bowl is completely machine washable. Flip inside out, cinch, and wash with PetTergent. How often depends on how often your furbaby uses Forager, and how messy of an eater they are.
Because they are family.
At Pet Parents, we live every day by this core principle. Because we believe that pet parenting should be easy, we’re here for you; whether it’s through our products, services, or information, we want to do our part to help and be a resource to you–so your furbabies can live longer, healthier, & happier lives.

We got this for our hedgehog and it works great.

My (dog trainer) favorite snuffle mat
I work with dogs and this is the snuffle mat that I recommend to nearly all of my clients. It is light weight, washes up well via the washing machine, and so far (after 2 years of use) has stood up very well. I have 4 of them in my home for my border collie and corgi to eat from – we use this instead of bowls. It slows the dogs down from eating to fast but more importantly it enables them to eat in a more natural way – it is very canine to sniff and forage for food. This product enables them to do that.For a treat, from time to time, I will even take some finely shredded cheese and sprinkle it in the mats and the dogs will literally be sniffing for 20 minutes if not more, finding every last piece of cheese.I personally use the 19″ square mats for my dogs (each dog being 30 pounds in size). Gives a nice amount of surface area for them to sniff and forage through.

This product rocks! Great size for Greyhound! Occupies dog for decent while!
My doggo has been doing her puzzles for a while. Shes very fast and (being extremely treat motivated) is as hasty as possible. Usually her puzzles last maybe a minute. My husband and I were surprised at the length this kept her occupied. I did a VERY quick setup, it was a test setup taking maybe one minute. I did make sure to push the kibbles in the mat. (btw I washed it first.) Anyways it kept her occupied for around 10 minutes!This was the perfect size for our 65 lb Greyhound!!She is going in for a cancerous tumor removal and the recovery time will be pretty long, so this mat will be a godsend in keeping her occupied when her energy returns but she still has limited mobility!

Great mat for my indoor cat
I have read that it’s important to keep indoor cats engaged and to make them work for their food so I bought this mat. My cat uses it consistently and it’s great quality and easy to clean. It was less expensive than other options I sawOnline

Such a great snuffle and so very soft! Boxer approved!
Two Boxers with totally different eating habits loving these.These snuffles are so to the touch they love to sleep on them too.They are deep to allow for foraging and even my pup has to hunt for her kibble.They also don’t slide all over the floor when I place them on the hard floor. I can give them a shake outside to clean them after each meal and I plan on washing them once a week.Thanks for a great product.

Ok
No big deal

solid purchase
this was a great starter snuffle mat for my puppy , keeps him occupied for a bit since i did purchase the small mat. It is very soft and easy to hide treats in, the blue spots are easier sections for him to start sniffing. It rolls up nicely and closes with a velcro strap for storage. My puppy has chewed areas of it but it’s holding up great, nothing as torn off the mat.

Favorite sniff mat
This is a favorite activity for my puppies. We sprinkle small treats on it and “bury them.” They love sniffing them out – and it tires them out for a while!

My 8 month old bichon is very picky when it comes to eat so I told myself I’d buy this mat to make it exciting for her . So far so surprisingly good ! She loves to sniff around and find things so she’s having a blast. Especially when she finds some treats that u his here and there.She’s 10 pounds and the size is perfect for her and I like that it doesn’t slide on my wooden floor!

I needed a very soft snuffle mat for my Italian Greyhound with fragile skin, and this one is amazing! It’s gentle, plush, and comfortable, making it perfect for her. She loves using it, and I appreciate how easy it is to clean and maintain.One of my favorite features is that it doubles as a cozy crate mat. If she decides to lay on it instead of foraging, it’s soft and snuggly, providing extra comfort.This was a great purchase, and I’d highly recommend it to any pet owner looking for a high-quality, multi-use snuffle mat! 🐶💕

Great quality made product, easily cleaned because its machine washable. My kitty enjoys searching for his kibble in it. Has anti slip material on the bottom side, but I place it on a silicone mat to prevent slipping and sliding. Wish it had come in a different colour other than the dull gray.

I really do like this snuffle mat. The only thing I wish could be improved is that I can hide the dog food better. Another one that I bought, the dog food could go deep inside. So it took my dog longer to eat from it.

Our dog loves foraging in her mat. It’s a great distraction when we are trying to workout.
