Tricks & Tips

This section describes some of the most effective ways to install and use the ScatMat.

Blocking a doorway with the ScatMat

Entrance control is the toughest job for the ScatMat. Pets may jump over or sneak around the mat(s), but there are ways to avoid this. Here are a few pointers:

• Select the right size mat to cover the opening, and place it on the pet's side of the doorway. Position the power pack and adapter away from the pet.
• Fill any gaps around the mat with Extension ScatMats, Dummy ScatMats or obstacles.
• Select the appropriate power setting for your pet's size.
• Consider using the mat in combination with a pet gate. (Place the mat on the floor in front of gate.)
