The ribs 18, 20 extend longitudinally and transversely, the terminal ends being squared off, with the overall dimensions of the mat substantially conforming to the outline of the wire cage bottom 10. The ribs define, at the-upper edge of the openings 16, radial upper peripheral margins which direct waste to the screen below. Integral spacer members are provided e.g. at 25.
