A warm place, a familiar retreat and a little extra comfort in everyday life: Today, our pets spend many hours in our homes. While dogs regularly go outdoors, indoor cats in particular spend a large part of their lives indoors.
This is exactly where the VITORI® PetMat comes in. The heated mat was specially developed for animals and combines deep infrared heat with pulsating magnetic fields. It offers dogs, cats and small animals their own place to relax – without having to do anything for it.
But how did the idea for the PetMat come about? What makes it special? And why do cats in particular like to decide for themselves whether they like a place?

From living in nature to everyday life in the living room
A dog descends from wild ancestors. Cats also have a long evolutionary history as animals that moved, rested and explored their surroundings outdoors.
Today, the everyday life of many pets looks different: tiles, laminate, underfloor heating and cozy sleeping places shape their surroundings. Although walks and trips outdoors are still part of it, a large part of their rest time takes place in our homes.
This is not necessarily a bad thing – after all, we offer our animals a home, protection and security. Nevertheless, it is worth taking a look at their needs: Many animals naturally seek warm, protected and comfortable places to lie.
Cats make it particularly clear. They lie on sunny window sills, seek the warmth of the heater or make themselves comfortable on freshly washed laundry. After a walk, dogs also like to enjoy a warm place where they can rest undisturbed.
A warm, pleasant place of their own is therefore one of the things we can do to make everyday life particularly pleasant for our animals.
The Schumann Resonance – 7.83 Hz and the fundamental frequency of the Earth
In nature, we encounter a physical phenomenon that plays a special role in connection with the PetMat: the so-called Schumann resonance.
It is created by electromagnetic resonances in the space between the Earth's surface and the ionosphere. Its best-known fundamental frequency is approximately 7.83 Hertz. Physicist Winfried Otto Schumann described this phenomenon mathematically in 1952; today it is measured.
VITORI incorporates this frequency in its PetMat concept. According to the manufacturer, the mat features pulsating magnetic fields with various frequency settings, including 7.83 Hz as well as other programs at 3 Hz and 20 Hz.
The PetMat is therefore primarily focused on the interplay of warmth, comfort and the technology used by VITORI.
VITORI PetMat – Deep infrared heat and pulsating magnetic fields
The PetMat is no ordinary pet blanket with an integrated heating wire. VITORI adapted the technology of its mats for people to the special requirements of a pet mat.
It combines two technical elements:
Deep infrared heat
The temperature can be set individually. This creates a pleasantly warm place to lie that your pet can use regularly. Especially after a walk or during a rest phase, warmth can feel pleasant.
Pulsating magnetic fields
The PetMat also uses pulsating magnetic fields. VITORI offers various frequencies and programs for this, including 3 Hz, 7.83 Hz and 20 Hz.
The technology is integrated into a mat construction specially developed for animals. The internal components can be removed so that the outer cover can be washed.
Cats are the most honest product testers
As is well known, it is difficult to persuade a cat to do something. It decides for itself where it wants to lie – and if it doesn't like a place, it simply finds another one.
That is exactly why the experiences from the VITORI community are so interesting.
One of the first cats with its own PetMat was photographed by its owners in various lying positions. Sometimes curled up, sometimes stretched out, sometimes on its side – the place was obviously chosen by itself.
Small animals also show interest in the small PetMat. VITORI reports, for example, of rabbits and a guinea fowl that have tried the warm place.
This shows which different animals the small version is intended for: cats, small animals and small dogs.
How do you get your cat used to the PetMat?
Cats sometimes need a little time to accept new objects in their surroundings. That is why VITORI recommends a relaxed approach:
- Choose the right place: Place the PetMat where your cat already likes to lie.
- Do not force anything: Simply offer the mat and do not put your cat on it.
- Give it time: Some cats accept a new place immediately, while others observe it for a while first.
You cannot convince a cat. You can only offer it the right place.
Which PetMat size is right for your pet?
The VITORI PetMat is available in two sizes. Both versions have the same technical equipment.
The small PetMat – 50 × 50 cm
- For cats
- For small animals
- For small dogs
- Weight: approx. 2 kg
- Power consumption: 25 watts
- Price: €399
The large PetMat – 100 × 100 cm
- For medium and large dogs
- For two animals, if they like to lie together
- Weight: approx. 5 kg
- Power consumption: 100 watts
- Price: €599
It is not just your pet's body size that matters. It should be able to stretch out comfortably on the mat and take its preferred lying position.
Thought out down to the last detail: Equipment and everyday suitability
A pet mat has to withstand quite a lot. Fur, claws, movement and occasional little mishaps are part of everyday life.
That is why the PetMat was developed with practical use in mind.
- Robust quilted fabric: The surface is designed for everyday use with animals.
- Non-slip underside: Nubs provide better grip on the floor.
- Removable electronics: The technical internal components can be removed in a few simple steps.
- Washable outer cover: After removing the electronics, the cover can be washed.
- Two covers included: A light short-pile cover and a dark long-pile cover are included in the delivery.
- Carrying bag: The PetMat can also be taken with you on the go.
Both covers are already included in the delivery. Your pet can therefore decide for itself which surface it likes better.
Is the PetMat suitable for overnight use?
According to VITORI, the PetMat is designed for longer rest periods and also for overnight use.
The safety and comfort features include:
- 12-hour timer
- Continuously adjustable temperature, maximum 50 °C
- Automatic magnetic field shut-off after 30 minutes
- Class 2 protective isolation
- CE marking
- Two-year warranty
For cats and small animals, VITORI recommends a temperature setting of approximately 35 to 38 °C as well as a quiet program.
It is important to adapt the temperature to the respective animal and regularly ensure that it has the option to leave the mat at any time.
How much does the PetMat cost to run?
The small PetMat has a power consumption of 25 watts, the large one 100 watts.
Based on an assumed operating time of eight hours and full power consumption, the calculated results are:
- Small PetMat: 0.2 kWh
- Large PetMat: 0.8 kWh
The actual electricity costs depend on the individual electricity tariff and usage. The example costs stated by VITORI for one night with the large mat are approximately 25 to 30 cents.
For which animals is the PetMat not suitable?
Before purchasing, you should also pay attention to the usage instructions.
According to VITORI, the PetMat is not suitable for pregnant animals and animals with magnetic implants.
In cases of epilepsy and other seizure-like conditions, electronic implants and heart rhythm disorders, the magnetic field should remain switched off. According to the manufacturer, the heat function can still be used.
In cases of circulatory weakness or vein problems, veterinary advice should be sought beforehand. For older or weakened animals, VITORI recommends not using high temperatures and aiming for a setting of approximately 35 to 38 °C.
The PetMat is intended for your pet's well-being and does not replace a veterinary examination or treatment.
How did the idea for the VITORI PetMat come about?
The story of the PetMat did not begin with classic product development.
Since the VITORI mats for people have been available, customers have repeatedly sent photos in which they themselves were not lying – but their pets.
Cats, dogs and other animals had long since discovered the mats for themselves. These experiences led to the idea of developing a mat specifically for animals.
A warm place – just for your darling.
The PetMat adapts the basic technical idea of the VITORI mats to a format that is suitable for dogs, cats and small animals. Rather than simply equipping an existing pet blanket with a heating function, a unique construction with removable electronics, a washable cover and an animal-friendly surface was developed.
Discover the VITORI PetMat – your darling decides for themselves
Whether cat, dog or small animal: Every animal has its own preferences when it comes to its favorite place.
With the VITORI PetMat, your pet gets a permanent, warm retreat with individually adjustable heat and the magnetic field technology used by VITORI.
You set the temperature, choose the desired program and offer the mat to your darling. Whether and how long it uses it is up to them.
The VITORI PetMat is available in two sizes:
- Small PetMat (50 × 50 cm): €399
