Pieviev Cat Clutter Mat Double Layer Water-resistant Urine Evidence Trapping Mat 1 Pack (Black, 24×15 Inch (Pack of one))

Worth the money
Odd how something so simple can make life easier. It catches all the litter the cats throw out the box. It holds a lot of litter and it’s easy to empty, too. Worth the money.

Works Really Well!
This mat is so well-designed that you forget how simple it is!It arrived folded up and packaged in a plastic sleeve. When I unwrapped it, the mat retained its folded shape, and would not lay flat. However, the enclosed instructions acknowledge this, and advise you to place the mat on a flat surface, and weight it down with something like books overnight, or until it will lay flat on its own. Mine took about 24 hours to lay flat enough to use, and after about a week, even the fold lines had disappeared.The mat is made out of a foam type material, and is extremely lightweight. This makes it easy to position, but it also means the mat tends to slide around a bit when your cat jumps onto it. I tend to have to reposition my mat about once a week.The honeycomb texture of the top layer is about a half inch thick, and captures stray litter excellently. The mat’s large enough that it can cover a pretty big area, and comes in various sizes, so you have a ton of options. Emptying the mat is super easy as well; you just pull the upper layer up, and turn the mat so that all the litter slides out.Cleaning it is simple. I just take it outside and spray it down with the hose, let it dry for thirty minutes, and replace it in front of the litter box!Pros:- Large size covers a significant area- Captures stray litter really well- Inexpensive- Easy to empty and cleanCons:- Fold lines take time to disappear- Light weight means the mat tends to slide around

Yes, they send it folded. Yes, it messes with the shape…
OK, so, for whatever reason, the makers of this mat decided it was best sent folded in half twice lengthwise and squeezed into a box. They are clearly aware that this messes with the mat, as they include a note on top that gives 2 tips on how to get the folds out. Well, I’d like to tell them the easiest way to get folds out, is to send the mat in a large envelope/packet type thing. Especially given the material of the honeycomb pattern, it is tough to get it flat, but not impossible. But, be aware that if you’d planned on using this immediately, you likely will not be able.Tip one is to put heavy things on it. OK, I did that. 2 30-lb (each) boxes so entire mat length/width was covered. Did for 2 days. Was a bit improved but definitely not flat. On day 3, I did their other tip…using a hairdryer to heat it. That alone did a bit, but not a ton. So, I ended up blasting it with the hot hairdryer and then putting the boxes on it immediately. Left it about 18hrs, that mostly did it. Several weeks later, it does lay flat.Despite that being way more than I’d thought I’d have to do for a cat litter mat, I do like it well enough. It does catch litter very well and holds it in. I still have the occasional stray bit of litter, but, in fairness to the mat (and despite my placing the litter box & mat in a spot where my kitty must step foot on it before anything else), my cat will sometimes just bolt outta her Litterbox, I honestly think she takes flight, haha. But, it does collect litter well and most of the time she seems fine walking on it.The part that is a bit frustrating is trying to clean the litter from it. The first time, I picked it up, trying to keep it level, and only turned it to dump it once over a wide garbage bag… But litter just kinda flew in all directions from that movement. I found it a bit tricky to keep it flat and pull the honeycomb layer apart from the bottom layer without starting that flying litter. It made a mess all over the place. The 2nd time I did it, I got a brand new garbage bag so I could stick the whole mat in it and only tilt it once it was fully covered. Next time, I’ll probably just vacuum, though I’m not sure if that’ll get it all. So the whole “just pour it back into your litterbox” does not work, at least for me.So, yes, it works, but not without some issues.

Great
O should have bought this A long time ago. It catches most of the litter and is now keeping my floor litter free. Very easy to clean. I folded it up in the opposite direction it came in to flatten out. I put rubber bands around it and it flattened out within a few hrs. Good value for the money.

Works really well!!

Works well to retain litter
