Mastertrap Cat Scat Mat with Spikes Garden Repellent 200cm

Cats naturally avoid walking on uncomfortable surfaces. This spike mat creates a textured barrier that feels unpleasant underfoot, encouraging cats to avoid the area without causing injury. The blunt plastic spikes do not penetrate skin but create enough discomfort that cats choose an easier route instead. Use it to protect garden beds from digging, keep cats off furniture, or block access to specific indoor or outdoor areas.

The mat measures 200cm x 30cm and flexes to conform to uneven surfaces such as soil, decking or curved furniture edges. The spike pattern covers the full surface with no gaps, preventing cats from finding comfortable footholds. Made from durable black polypropylene, the mat withstands UV exposure and frost without becoming brittle, making it suitable for year-round outdoor use.

It can be secured with ground pegs when used on soil, fixed with adhesive on hard surfaces, or simply weighted down with stones or other objects. The flexible design also allows the mat to be cut to size where required.

Common uses include protecting vegetable patches and seedbeds from cats using them as litter trays, keeping cats off windowsills or worktops indoors, preventing scratching on furniture, and blocking access beneath decking or sheds where cats may shelter. Multiple mats can be laid end-to-end or side-by-side to cover longer runs or larger areas.

This deterrent works immediately by creating a physical barrier rather than relying on scent or sound. Unlike chemical repellents that wash away in rain, the spike surface continues working as long as the mat remains in place. It requires no batteries, maintenance or reapplication.

Usage Tips
For garden beds, place the mat on soil around plants and secure with tent pegs. For furniture or indoor surfaces, cut to size and fix with adhesive tape if required. For larger areas, lay multiple mats end-to-end or side-by-side. Clean periodically with a hose to remove soil or debris.
