Product Description
The Scat Mat is a touch sensitive training pad which says no, when you can't. Place the clear flexible vinyl Scat Mat in a room entrance, on your sofa, counter top or the hood of your car. The touch sensitive pad will silently protect prohibited areas from trespassers. When touched, the battery sends small pulses to the mat for three seconds. These surprising little zaps quickly repel most animals who stay away after one or two exposures--even after the mat is removed. Veterinarian approved Scat Mat works when all else fails. Used in conjunction with your normal training techniques, and surface cleaning (as appropriate for elimination behavior changes) the Scat Mat will help you restore harmony to your household. Easily move your Power Pack from one mat to another. Scat Mats only train pets who get onto, or into the unapproved space. Scat Mats operate unattended and correct the pet at exactly the time and location of the unwanted behavior, day or night. Action Indicator Light helps you decide when the pet is trained. It will blink a count showing how many times the mat has been stepped since it was last turned on.

 scat mat October 25, 2008
dorie. B. (western NY)
This product worked well for a short period of time. When it ceased to work about 8 weeks later, close exam showed a wire pulled loose, and broken. No children here, and one escape artist cat. Nothing to catch the wire, I assume the wire was too close to surface, as the wires are about the thickness of a human hair. Disappointed in short survival.

One of our cats had begun jumping on the kitchen work surfaces and we had tried all manner of things to prevent him. The Contech medium mat is just the right size to fit onto kitchen counter tops. I witnessed him jump onto the mat and immediately jump off. Since then he does not seem so inclined to jump up and we have often left the mat switched off while in place. The mat is easily relocated to different surfaces so there is no need for multiple units. I highly recommend this for training in situation where all else has failed. The mat would have received five stars but the price was my only complaint.

This product definitely keeps our dog from sleeping on our new couch which is great. The problem is our crazy dog keeps trying, even though he gets zapped every time. We always put the Scat Mat on the couch before we leave the house and 9 times out of 10 the sensor lets us know that he has touched it while we were gone. Apparently the shock is not bad enough to keep him from testing it over and over again (even on high). So this is a problem with my dog, not the Scat Mat. We are hoping that one day he will realize that the new couch always equals getting zapped, and leave it alone!
Solved problem in 1 day July 6, 2008

The turf battle over furniture ended the 1st day placed Scat mat on couch and chair. I could have saved thousands of dollars worth of furniture if I got this produce sooner. The cats respect the mat and know exactly where it is but it did not hurt or traumatize them because they will lay right next to it. The cats also know as soon as it is not on the furniture. After a contact or 2 the mat will do the job even when not turned on. Well worth the cost

This product worked great on my cats. They now think twice before they jump on the kiticen counters.
