iPrimio Cat Litter Trapper Mat

The iPrimio Cat Litter Trapper is a double layer litter mat. Litter falls through honeycomb holes in the top layer and collects on a waterproof bottom layer, and the two layers open like a book so you can shake them out.

Who it suits

Big litter boxes and cats that kick out a lot of dry litter. It is less suited to cats that pee on the mat, since clumps get stuck in the holes.

Key facts

• Double layer: honeycomb top layer, waterproof bottom layer (Reviewed)
• Sizes: 30 x 23, 23 x 21 or 29 x 27 inches (Reviewed)
• Clean it by separating the layers and shaking them (Reviewed)
• Layers are joined on one side only (Cats.com)

What reviewers say

Reviewed found it did well at collecting litter, but they lost more litter while carrying it because of the open sides, and gunky messes still needed scrubbing with soap and water.

Cats.com named it best for large litter boxes. Because the layers are joined on one side only, it is easy to flip open and wipe inside, but also easier to spill, and the small holes make clumped litter hard to clean.

Pros and cons

• Pro: Traps litter inside the two layers
• Pro: Opens like a book for shaking out
• Pro: Several sizes
• Con: Open sides let litter spill when you carry it
• Con: Clumped litter is hard to clean from the holes
• Con: Not the best choice for cats that pee on the mat

Cautions

• Shake it out over the litter box or a bin, keeping it closed until you get there.
• Wash it if it gets wet; clumps stuck in the holes need scrubbing.
• If your cat starts avoiding the box after you add a mat, remove it and talk to your vet if the problem continues.
