Yoga Cat Mat FAQ

Why should I get a yoga cat mat for my cat?

All cats need their own yoga mat. It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand this; your cat does.

Do cats really do yoga?

According to scholars, felines have been practicing yoga for at least 5,000 years. They are the original practitioners, as their limber bodies and generally relaxed, natural dispositions enable them to fall into a deep meditative state—the goal of yoga asana practice. So the questions should be: do people do yoga nearly as well as cats?

How is the Feline Yogi Cat Mat used?

The beauty of the Feline Yogi Yoga Cat Mat is it is many things all rolled into one. It’s a toy, a scratcher, a lounger all rolled into one. Not to mention it is a great backdrop for pictures of your kitty and looks great with any home décor.  Each cat is different and each cat will use the mat in their own unique way.

What if my cat scratches up the Yoga Cat Mat?

That is the point, human. Better the mat than your couch, your carpet, your lamp shade, or all the toilet paper rolls in the house. These are, incidentally, highly skillful, ancient moves known as clawsoutbewarenowasana in Sanskrit.
