A Quieter Kind of Communication

Pets communicate constantly—through pacing, paw taps, or that one look that says everything. Communication buttons don’t replace those signals. They simply give them a consistent cue—so daily routines feel calmer and easier to understand.

What These Buttons Do

These are tap-to-play, re-recordable buttons: record a word, label it, place it on the mat, and let your pet practice with gentle repetition. The product page describes them as barrier-free communication support between pets and owners, with clear sound and easy operation. Pawlette

Built for Real Homes (And Real Training)

1) Clear Sound + Easy Re-Record
Change vocabulary as your pet learns—press, record, label, done. Crisp playback helps pets distinguish cues even in busier rooms.

2) Stay-Put Mat That Keeps Things Tidy
A slip-resistant, moisture-protective mat reduces sliding during excited taps. That means less “button drift,” fewer interruptions, and a cleaner setup in your space. 

3) Safer Details You’ll Appreciate
A screw-locked battery door helps block accidental access. The buttons are ABS for durability, made for everyday enrichment (with supervision).

4) Labels That Keep Learning Consistent
Included stickers make it easier to keep your words consistent—so “Outside” always means outside, and “Play” always means play. Consistency is what turns a fun idea into real progress.

A Simple 7-Day Starter Routine

Day 1–2: One button, one high-value word.
Try: “Outside,” “Treat,” or “Play.”

Day 3–4: Pair sound + action.
Press the button, say the word, immediately do the thing. Keep sessions short and calm.

Day 5–7: Add a second button.
Pick a clearly different outcome (“Water” vs “Play”). Label both, and don’t change meanings.

Short sessions beat long sessions. Calm repetition wins.

The Pawlette Take

Communication doesn’t have to be loud. With clear cues, consistent labels, and a tidy setup, buttons can become a quiet daily ritual—one tap at a time.
