Aperitivo Activity Toy
A three-zone lick mat with whisker-friendly grooves and a freezer trick.
Final/Total cost shown at checkout
Aperitivo is the lick mat for cats that get bored fast. It offers three different surfaces, deep grooves, lifting flaps, and a textured field, so wet food, dry food, or treats can be hidden across it in ways that keep a cat working and interested. The grooves are cut shallow enough that sensitive whiskers stay comfortable.
The licking itself calms cats down, which helps at stressful moments. It is molded from food-grade silicone, BPA and phthalate free, and it grips the floor with a non-slip base. Freeze it with food inside for an extra long challenge.
A German design house
MiaCara is a family run German label from Herzogenaurach, started by Sebastian and Barbara Zweig. It began with their Labrador, Cara, who turned her nose up at a cheap foam cushion, and grew into a full design house that launched its cat line in 2015. The credo is form follows function, innovate rather than imitate, so every piece is drawn to work first and then to sit quietly in a room.
Made in Europe, made to last
Most of the range is manufactured in Germany and Europe from hand picked suppliers, under fair conditions and short transport routes. MiaCara leans on recycled materials wherever it can: felt spun from recycled PET bottles, recycled aluminium, recycled foam, and fabric made from upcycled ocean plastic through the Seaqual initiative. Packaging is FSC certified or recycled, and the workshop has run on certified green electricity since 2021.
Award winning design
MiaCara's work has been recognised with design awards, among them a German Design Award and a Red Dot, and each piece is credited to the studio or designer behind it.
