Scat mat quickly and safely eliminated my dogs unwanted behavior,
This review is from: PetSafe ScatMat Electronic Pet Training Mat, Small (Kitchen)
My older male dog, had begun to urinate in my living room after the introduction of a new younger male into the household. I never was able to catch him doing it so correcting the behavior effectively was just not happening. I purchased a large scat mat and a large extention and placed them on either side of the coffee table leg that my dog had repeatedly urinated on. The first afternoon it was down, I noticed a few drops of urine on the mat, cleaned it up and waited. For several days no dog went near the area, then the old fella must have forgotten and revisited one more time. It has been over a week with no accidents anywhere in the house. Hurray! Hurray! A problem that I have been trying to catch and correct for several months is finally under control! I plan to leave the mats in place for a few months just to insure the lesson is reinforced if need be and the behavior does not begin again.
I really like this product and would highly recommend to anyone with a similar problem. For those of you who worry about using something intended to give a shock, this is a static shock, like when you shuffle across the carpet and then touch a doorknob. My husband forgot and three times stepped on it with his bare feet in the same night. He said that it was not painful just startling and bit unpleasant. Come to think of it, I haven't seen him in the living room lately either (lol).

I cant believe how effective this mat is. one of our cats decided she owned our master bedroom and bed, to the point bad things were happening in our sleep. we tried everything, this was our second to last resort. We ordered the large version with battery only and placed it in front of our bedroom door. all it took was one step on the mat and the cats (2) will not go past the door way into the bedroom. We have had the mat for about 3 months now. The cats understand the mat has something to do with the shock, so we have to leave it out so they wont re-enter the bedroom, but it has been disabled for a month (we dont have a battery in it any more). just the presence of the mat keeps them away from the room. we tried touching the mat ourselves, thinking if the cats were going to go thru this we need to have an idea of what the effect was. it is similar to a mild static shock on the high setting. You can hold your hand on it getting 'shocked' repeatedly with only mild discomfort. I think it is more the scare factor that keeps the cats away.
Highly effective, great product

My Cat's too smart for the ScattMatt,

Typically I don't write negative reviews and my experience with the scat mat wasn't successful.
First of all, I order the Scat Mat in the hopes of keeping my cat Kato off of our turtles enclosure. We have a large enclosure with a lid and window where we keep a Red Ear Slider. Routinely my cat sits on the enclosure and watches my turtle and occasionally will pounce on the glass, startling the turtle and send him back into the water. We placed the scat mat right over the window so our cat would not sit on it or peer through it. Our cat learned his lesson and just moves the mat to the side by touching the points that are not electrified. I'm not sure if my cat is especially bright or if this is a common occurrence. The mat now sits in a closet, useless.
