Why We Created Our
Feeding Placemats

At Pup & Kit, we’re on a mission to make mealtimes easier - for pets and humans. That’s why we’ve expanded our feeding range with something that every pet parent will appreciate: silicone placemats designed to keep floors clean, bowls in place, and stress levels low.

The Frustration That Sparked Innovation

If you’ve ever bought a pet mat that soaks through, flops around when you try to carry it, or just doesn't do its job - you’re not alone. Pup & Kit founder Mark was fed up with mats that created more mess than they solved. So, he decided to design one that actually works.

The goal? A mess-free, stress-free feeding zone for pets, so their humans don’t have to spend extra time wiping up splashes, spills, and stray kibble…just a quality mat which can be carried with confidence and is dishwasher safe. That’s how our signature silicone placemats were born.

Designed to Banish Mealtime Mess

Simple? Yes.

Effective? Absolutely.

Our mats feature a raised 15mm catching lip to catch drips, spills, and splashes — so floors stay dry and clean. Made with triple-thick, high-quality silicone, they’re sturdy enough to carry from floor to sink without flopping, folding, or spilling.

And they’ve been through testing.

All our placemats have been tested to guarantee they entirely BPA-free. You also don’t need to worry about your pet ruining it, our customers are obsessed with the weighty feel, and leaving the claw marks behind.

Whether your pup or kitten is a tidy eater or a total slopper, we wanted the issue solved. 

No More Bowl-Chasing

And it’s not just that. Let’s be honest: watching your dog chase their bowl around the kitchen can be entertaining…once. But when mealtimes turn into sliding chaos, it’s frustrating. That’s why our mats are anti-slip, just like our bowls - so everything stays in place.

Whether you pick a single mat (great for small spaces or travel) or go for a double mat to build a full feeding station, you’ll notice a difference. 

We get it — no one wants to spend more time scrubbing pet gear. That’s why our mats are dishwasher safe and easy to rinse. Because your time should be spent playing, not cleaning.

A Perfect Match for Your Lid-it Bowls

Our silicone placemats are designed to pair perfectly with our Lid-It bowls - whether you love a sleek stainless look or you’re all about our new boujee Beige. It’ll look stylish, co-ordinated and of course clean. 

How Pet Owners Are Already Loving Their Mats

Even before our official launch, our silicone placemats have made their way into homes — and the feedback has been amazing. Here’s how real pet parents are using them:

  • Travel made easy – Say goodbye to soggy floors at campsites, hotels, or in the car. The mat catches everything until you can clean up properly — no mess, no weird looks from strangers.
  • A complete feeding station – The perfect colour match to your Lid-It bowls and available in single or double sizes, these mats make your pet’s mealtime corner look polished and tidy.
  • Mess-free floors – Raised edges keep water and food where it belongs, not soaked into your floors.
  • Effortless cleaning – Just pop it in the dishwasher or give it a quick rinse — done.

Excellent product, arrived quickly. It stops the kittens from chasing their food mats along the floor. Easy to wipe clean. Matches the kitchen decor too! Recommended!

No longer can my little dog move her feeding bowls all around the floor, they stay on the mat. Spills are easy to clean up and at the end of the day I put the mat and her Lid-It straight into the dishwasher

Fab quality and very stable. Bowls don’t budge on it and make cleanup easy. They look great as well.

Great quality mat with a raised edge, which contains the food and water dropped by my dogs while eating & drinking; leaving my floor clean.

At Pup & Kit, we believe small, thoughtful changes can make life with pets a whole lot easier. Our silicone placemats were born from the real-life frustration of kitchen messes, and they’ve already made a difference for pet parents who’ve tried them.

We’re so excited to bring them into more homes - hopefully even yours.
