Coomazy Licky Mats for Dogs (2-pack) – Blue & Purple slow feeding and calming lick mats with suction cups
Product description
At a glance
If your dog gets wound up during grooming, nail trims, baths or even vet days, a lick mat can be a surprisingly practical distraction. The Coomazy Licky Mats for Dogs come as a 2-pack (blue and purple) designed to encourage slow licking, which can help take the edge off anxiety and also steer focus away from boredom.
The idea is simple: instead of rushing through treats or licking everything too quickly, your dog spends time working through a textured, multi-area surface. It’s one of those “small change, noticeable difference” tools—especially if you’ve ever tried to calm a squirmy dog with just a normal bowl and found it didn’t really hold attention.
That said, it’s not magic. It depends quite a lot on your dog’s interest in licking and on what you spread onto the mat.
What it’s designed to do
On paper, these lick mats are built around two main jobs: slowing eating and giving your dog something structured to do with their tongue.
Calming through licking
The product description notes that repeat licking can help dogs release endorphins and can inhibit destructive behaviour. For owners, that typically translates to a calmer demeanour during stressful routine moments—like waiting for a bath to start or having nails clipped.
Slow feeding support
The texture design is meant to prolong the licking/eating time, which may help reduce overeating and the risk of rushing (and, by extension, bloating). It’s also framed as helping dogs develop better eating habits.
A concrete way to use it: smear a thin layer of something lickable (for example peanut butter or a yoghurt-based mix) in one of the areas, press the mat flat on a suitable surface, and let your dog work through it while you tackle grooming. Once they’re focused on the mat, you’ll often find the surrounding task feels less chaotic.
Key features that matter in daily use
A lick mat only earns its place if it stays put, cleans up easily, and is comfortable for your dog to use.
Strong suction cups (with a limit)
These mats include 25 large suction cups for stronger attachment. They’re described as suitable for smooth surfaces like tile, metal, glass and marble.
Important limitation
Be aware they’re not suitable for painting walls, wallpaper, or other soft or uneven surfaces. If your home doesn’t have many smooth, hard spots for fixing the mat, you may end up using it in more awkward positions.
Texture and multi-area design
There are three texture designs and three areas intended for different foods (the description mentions options like peanut butter, pumpkin, yoghurt and nuts). This can be useful if you like variety, or if you want to tailor flavours to your dog.
Food-grade silicone and flexibility
The mats are made from 100% food-grade silicone, free of BPA and phthalates, and they’re described as soft, durable, flexible and waterproof. They’re also foldable, which is handy for storage.
Cleaning and maintenance
What you’ll like here is the cleaning approach: the product comes with 1 brush for better cleaning of crevices and dead ends.
The description says the mats can be washed directly with running water or soapy water, and they’re dishwasher safe. In practice, that makes a difference because lick mats can get messy fast—especially if you’re using thicker pastes.
Still, do check the condition after each use. If any residue dries in the textured areas, it can be harder to remove, so a quick rinse and scrub tends to be the sensible routine.

Pros, cons and who it suits
What stands out
- Strong suction cups intended to keep the mat from slipping on smooth surfaces
- Designed around slow licking for both anxiety-focused routines and slower treat consumption
- Food-grade silicone, foldable and waterproof, generally easy to wash
- Comes as a 2-pack, so you’re not stuck waiting for one mat to be clean
Not the best choice if…
- Your dog isn’t very interested in licking—then the “time spent working” benefit may not really happen.
- You mainly need attachment on soft or uneven surfaces, the mat is not meant for wallpaper/painted walls.
- You expect a lick mat to replace training or behavioural plans. It can help during moments, but it won’t solve underlying issues on its own.
It makes the most sense if you’re looking for a practical add-on for routine stress points: vet days, bath time, grooming, nail trimming or even just keeping them busy while you prepare food.
In the box
The set is described as: 1 Blue Lick Mat + 1 Purple Lick Mat + 1 grey spatula + 1 black brush, plus the cleaning brush mentioned in the description.
If you prefer tools to spread and clean accurately, that bundle is a handy inclusion.
Is it worth it?
This is worth considering if you want a dedicated slow feeding and licking distraction tool for calm-at-a-distance moments, and you’ve got a suitable smooth surface where suction can grip properly. The silicone build and the cleaning setup (brush/spatula, plus dishwasher-safe claim) point to something you’ll actually use more than once.
You may want to skip it if your home setup doesn’t allow proper suction (because you’re working on soft/uneven surfaces), or if your dog simply doesn’t engage with lick textures. Also, if you’re buying expecting guaranteed anxiety relief, it’s better to frame it as a tool that can help support routines, not a standalone fix.

Can I use different foods on the same mat?
The mats have three areas intended for different foods, with examples given such as peanut butter, pumpkin, yoghurt and nuts.
Can it be used like a slow feeder for meals?
The design is aimed at prolonging licking/feeding time, so it can fit around slow feeding routines. The key is to use a suitable spread and portion so your dog can work through it comfortably.
