Setup
Upon unboxing, the mat may have some creases due to packaging. To ensure it lays flat and performs optimally, follow these steps:
- Unfold the mat and lay it flat.
- If creases are present, gently fold the mat in reverse along the crease and flatten it firmly.
- Place a heavy object, such as the litter box itself, on the mat to help it settle.
- Allow at least 24 hours for the mat to fully flatten.
- Position the mat directly in front of your cat's litter box.

Operation
The Polarduck Cat Litter Mat is designed with a double-layer honeycomb structure. As your cat exits the litter box, loose litter particles from their paws fall through the large honeycomb holes onto the bottom layer of the mat. This effectively traps the litter, preventing it from scattering across your floor.

Maintenance and Cleaning
The Polarduck Cat Litter Mat is designed for effortless cleaning. Its waterproof backing also protects your floors from any liquid spills.
Cleaning Instructions:
- For Loose Litter: Simply tilt the mat gently to pour the trapped litter back into the litter box for reuse, or into a waste bin for disposal.
- For Deeper Cleaning: Use a vacuum cleaner to remove embedded litter and debris.
- For Stubborn Stains or Liquids: Wipe the mat with a damp cloth or rinse it thoroughly with water using a sprinkler or hose. The smooth PVC backing resists stains and is easy to clean.
- Allow the mat to air dry completely before placing it back in position.

Troubleshooting
- Mat Not Lying Flat: If the mat does not lay completely flat after unboxing, refer to the "Setup" section for instructions on how to flatten it using weight.
- Litter Still Tracking: Ensure the mat is positioned directly in front of the litter box, covering the area where your cat typically steps out. For cats that jump over the mat, consider a larger size if available or placing multiple mats.
- Difficulty Cleaning: For very fine litter or stubborn debris, a vacuum cleaner is recommended. For liquid spills, ensure prompt cleaning to prevent odors, though the waterproof backing will protect your floor.
- Odor from Mat: While the mat is designed to be odor-free, trapped litter or liquid can cause odors. Regular cleaning as per the "Maintenance" section is crucial to prevent this.
