Lickimat UFO | Suction Slow Feeder for Bath & Grooming

🛁 Bathtime, grooming, vet visits — anything that turns your dog into a wriggling mess magnet just got a whole lot calmer. The Lickimat UFO sticks straight to the shower wall, the tiles, even the car window, and keeps your pup licking happily while you get on with the job.

This innovative slow-feeding mat combines the best of the LickiMat® Soother and LickiMat® Splash to create an innovative feeder for sticking to flat surfaces such as windows, showers and hard floors.

The UFO features raised walls to keep food and saliva inside the bowl for mess-free slow-feeding and entertainment — perfect for using during bathtime and grooming. The magic is inside the LickiMat® UFO™ where soother nubs cover the interior of the bowl to "massage" your dog's tongue — this activates the relaxing hormone to help relieve stress and anxiety.

Beyond the calming effect, the UFO's design does double duty for physical health. By slowing your dog right down at mealtimes, it helps promote slower eating, which in turn improves digestion and reduces bloating and discomfort — especially handy for dogs who tend to bolt their food. That slower pace, combined with the licking action, also makes for a genuinely more enjoyable feeding experience overall, turning a routine meal into a small piece of enrichment.

It's a versatile little tool around the house too. Suction it to windows, showers, tiled walls, or any hard, flat surface, and use it to distract and soothe during bathtime and grooming — a favourite trick for dogs who find nail trims, brushing, or the tub itself a bit stressful. Fill it with wet food, purées, or liquid foods like broth or yoghurt for easy spreading across the nubs, and let your dog lick their way to a calmer state.

Sized for small and medium dogs, the UFO is a handy, portable option for reducing anxiety and curbing destructive behaviour at home — whether that's separation-related chewing, over-excitement at the door, or general restlessness. As with all LickiMats, please note this is a licking mat and not a chew toy — supervise use and remove if your dog attempts to bite or chew the mat itself.

Please note: the Lickimat UFO is a slow feeder and licking mat, not a chew toy. Always supervise your dog while they're using it.

Care & Safety Note

Wash after every use — dishwasher safe or hand wash with warm soapy water. Lightly wet the surface before pressing the UFO on for the strongest suction hold. This is a licking mat, not a chew toy: supervise your dog while it's in use, and check regularly for wear, cracks or loose suction cups. Not recommended for dogs that are heavy chewers.
