PetFusion ToughGrip XL: A Litter Mat for Surface Cleanup
An open-ridge silicone mat for loose litter outside the box. Check the XL footprint, walking route and cleanup routine before choosing it.
The short answer
Choose the PetFusion ToughGrip XL if loose litter gathers outside the box and you prefer an exposed surface you can sweep, vacuum or wipe. Its flexible silicone construction and open ridges make the collected granules accessible from above.
The main drawback is the space it takes: this guide covers one gray, 38 × 26-inch XL mat, model PF-LMDL1. Litter stays visible until you remove it, and anything landing beyond that footprint still needs floor cleanup.

What the ridges and border actually do
Raised inner ridges and an outer border create exposed collection areas. There is also a side spout for pouring out loose litter. This is an open-surface mat, not a two-layer pocket you pull apart to empty.
Those features suit someone who wants to see and reach the debris. They do not guarantee that every granule stays on the mat or that the surrounding room stays clean.
Measure the route, not just the empty floor
Measure a 38 × 26-inch rectangle where your cat usually steps out. Check doors, your own walking space and the direction of travel. Placing the longer dimension along a straight exit route gives you more mat in that direction.
A quick turn, another exit or a jump can bypass it. Watch the actual route before choosing a position. Space tucked underneath the litter box is no longer exposed landing area, so do not count an overlapping section as coverage for those first steps.
Choose the cleanup routine you will use
PetFusion lists sweeping, vacuuming and sponge wiping as cleaning options. Unlike a concealed collection pocket, the recesses remain accessible from above. You still need to empty them; the mat changes where some litter gathers rather than removing the chore.
The maker also describes folding the flexible mat and pouring clean loose litter back into the box through the spout. Use that option only when you know the litter is clean and dry. Discard damp, soiled or uncertain material instead; do not assume that loose-looking granules are clean.
Wiping instructions are not a complete disinfection protocol. Do not assume dishwasher compatibility or add bleach or machine washing without product-specific care instructions. As general housekeeping, check beneath the mat and let the mat and floor dry before replacing it; it is not a sealed urine tray.
Before choosing the XL
Confirm the gray XL variant and available floor space. Buy it for the accessible ridged surface and practical emptying options—not a promise of zero tracking, guaranteed grip or less cleaning in every home. The listing is for one mat, without a litter box or cleaning tools.
Method: Based on the matching product listing and published manufacturer information. We have not hands-on tested this mat.
