Use scat mats to keep animals away from places they should not be in

Sometimes, pets and other animals in the neighborhood make a particular place their own. This place is frequented for urinating or defecating and can be extremely bothersome. Sometimes these pets will go to places where they should not. It becomes so habitual that it is practically impossible to break. A non dangerous way is to use scat mats. These mats are training pads which are touch sensitive and deliver a harmless little static shock. The moment your dog or cat returns to his favorite haunt to urinate or defecate and if the scat mat is placed in the right position, it will give the animal a tiny shock. It tells the animal in no uncertain terms `No, this is not the place’. It is probably the best product in the market for keeping pets away from areas where they are not supposed to be.

These scat mats are made of clear vinyl with embedded have wires. Since they are clear and inconspicuous, a person can easily see and step over it. They come in different sizes and work with a 9 volt battery. If required, you can get one that works with the mains but you need to buy an adaptor for it. They have three levels of intensity that can be adjusted according to the stubbornness of the animal or depending on its size. If the animal is large, the intensity can be increased. You can lay the mat anywhere – in the doorway of a room, across the sofa, or on the counter. The little shocks come as a surprise to your cat or dog which will quickly learn that he or she has to avoid that particular area, sometimes even after the scat mat has been removed. The zaps are not dangerous at all; no harm will come to your pet but they will definitely shock the animal. If you don’t want to shock your animal with an electric pulse, you can activate the beep in the scat mat. You will be amazed at how quickly your pet can be trained and the battery will last several months of normal usage. However, some clever animals may figure out that they can urinate at the edge of the mat and not get an electric shock. This is the only disadvantage.

Originally, the drinkwell pet fountain was designed and recommended by vets for small pets. The device has a solid base with an abundant flow of running water with which pets can hydrate themselves and prevent urinary tract problems. It is a small unit holding just about fifty oz of water that pours in a steady stream to look like a small waterfall. The sound of the waterfall is pleasant. However, there is an additional seventy oz reservoir of water to maintain the optimum level. A charcoal filter at the bottom traps unwanted hair; it has no danger of toppling over and is dishwasher safe. Felines are especially attracted to it.
