Petmate Fat Cat Fat Toy Boogie Mat Asst

Oh HECK no. Just no. I am legitimately angry over this purchase. My cats had the old Boogie Mats by Fat Cat. It was great. Until someone had an accident on it. I wound up throwing it out. It just never was the same no matter how much washing I did.So I thought I'd buy a new one. Not only did I NOT receive the one pictured (which was the exact old one), I received a knockoff (guess from where). It's comically small. It's legitimately ugly. I loathe it.Unfortunately, one of my little dudes just loves it. He climbed on it right away. Why? Catnip. That's it.I'm out the money because I can't send it back. Oh well. In the future, I'll make my own with fabric, a sewing machine, and catnip. It's a shame the quality has gone down the toilet. I'm assuming Fat Cat got bought out by some cheap company. So sad.

On the left is a very old “Fish Can Fly” mat, made of what feels like a cotton blend. On the right is this new version, made of a nylon like fabric.The new version slides all over. While this slippery synthetic cloth may be great for flags, windbreakers, and sleeping bags, it’s nothing most people would want to touch. On a side by side test, cats prefer the old version 4 to 0.I agree with my cats: the original version is dramatically better. Except for the cute graphic, I can make these pretty quick with inexpensive material that is MUCH better.A standard pillowcase (Egyptian cotton with a high thread count) makes two of a more generous size, and I can add ribbons, tassels, buttons, whatever. The zipper is optional. My homegrown catnip is much stronger, so I just have to smear the mat with a little of it.Nope, never again. Way too cheesy. Sorry to see this product fall so, so far..

i just bought 2 more of these for my 17 year old little box turtle. i fold it over and safety pin the 2 edges and make a little pocket for her. she goes in there every evening to go to bed. she loves her "fat cat toy boogie mat". the first 2 have lasted at least 10 years and is finally ripping at the seams. these 2 new ones should last just as long. i take the catnip out and give it to my friend who has cats and then wash and dry the mats and they are ready to go. i wash the about once every few months and has still lasted a long time. i also cut the fluffs off so they don't shed in her container. Love these beds!!!

My cats go nuts over these little catnip mats. We have six cats. Originally bought one of these mats to see how they'd like it. They loved it so much, we had to buy several more to prevent the little beasts fighting over them. Now that the catnip has mostly lost its potency, the cats love to lay around on these mats. They're also nicely colored & decorated, so we don't mind having them all over the apartment. Definitely recommend.

The media could not be loaded.  Who knows why cats like what they like? My cat, Elvis, also likes cardboard tubes from a roll of paper towels. My sister sent him this 'magic carpet' for Xmas and he liked it so much I sent one to his friend, Mildred, in Colorado! Elvis has no interest at all in catnip so I didn't even bother to put any inside. At fist he just loved to sit on it. But then he went after the tassels and the tags. If I wave a plastic stick under it he tackles the mat. Mildred mostly rolls around in it and looks stoned . . sometimes trying to see what is under it? I bought my cat a $150 cat 'castle' which he spent about 5 minutes on. This mat? He still loves it 2 weeks after Christmas. And it weighs a lot less than that cat castle!!!

The mat arrived yesterday and from the moment I put the catnip in it, my cat went crazy over it. She started by rolling around on it, which escalated to full-scale play including batting it around like a toy and flipping it upside down and clamping down on it with her hind legs. After several hours, she finally slowed down to rest, but only for a short time before starting all over again. It works particularly well on the tile floor, because she is able to slide it to new locations. It was amazing ... she didn't get off of it for a full 24 hours! Best catnip toy ever ... she played with it for hours without me having to lift a finger. I assume the quality of the catnip it came with had some effect on her reaction, but the size of map is a perfect fit for her body, which I also think helped make this special to her. She slept on it all night, after she finally tired herself out. I used to get these boogie mats in the pet store years ago, but have been unable to find them recently. I see that some people complained that they didn't get the one pictured. The one I received looks exactly like the picture ... black cat sitting with the red flowers.

My cats love these Boogie mats! Whether we play by moving a plastic stick under it (not included) with them pouncing on it or crawling under it, they love it. And when the playtime is over, they sleep on it. I have multiple mats in the house so they can find one whenever they want to play or just rest from playing. The label says not to wash in the machine, but I have (in cold water) and put then through the dryer on low. I do have to flatten out the inner padding (open the zipper on the side), but it's faster and cleans better than hand washing. The playful and colorful designs also bring a smile to my face when I see them.

The media could not be loaded.  This is the second boogie mat I’ve purchased and they’re a hit with my kitty . There are several designs and it seems they’re chosen at random so you might not get the one that’s pictured. I didn’t the first time around but the Quality was the same with both mats. The padding inside isn’t super thick but she doesn’t seem to mind cause she’s always laying on it. She doesn’t seem to care much for the catnip that was included but the zipper on the side makes it super easy to add a brand I know she loves. I will definitely buy more to put around the house.
