Yes — that's the whole point. Cats avoid hard, spiky plastic honeycomb mats (many literally jump over them). KittyReef is plush chenille that feels like a soft rug under their paws, so cats walk across it on purpose. 9 out of 10 cats step on it the very first day.

KittyReef traps clumping clay, crystal, lightweight, pine and tofu litter. The deep chenille fibers grab granules of every size off your cat's paws in the first two steps — before they ride into the rest of your home.

Two ways. Day to day, just shake it out over the litter box — the trapped litter falls right back in. When it needs a real clean, toss the whole mat in the washing machine and dryer. It comes out looking brand new, wash after wash.

The waterproof non-slip backing stops liquid from reaching your floor, protecting hardwood, tile and LVP. Then — unlike honeycomb mats that trap urine between plastic layers — you simply machine wash it. No smell, no scrubbing, no biohazard.

The non-slip rubber backing keeps the mat firmly in place — no sliding, bunching or corner flipping. Its low profile also means robot vacuums roll over and around it instead of getting stuck like they do on thick rubber trays.

Every order is backed by our 60-Day Cat Guarantee. Put KittyReef at the box door for 60 days — if your cat walks around it, or you still find litter in the hallway, contact us for a full refund. Our support team replies within 12 hours.
