Product Overview
A thick, plush bed can feel stuffy in a warm room, and a home with the heating on can be just as warm as a summer afternoon. This pet cooling mat gives your dog or cat a lighter place to lie: a flat, breathable nylon mat with a dot pattern that moves easily from the floor to the crate, the couch or the back seat, then goes straight into the washing machine. It is sold as suitable for all seasons, so it keeps earning its place as an everyday mat long after summer ends.

Important Information
-
Choosing a size: measure your pet lying stretched out, from nose to base of tail, and add a few inches. If your pet sprawls on their side, size up.
-
This is a fabric mat, not an active cooling device. It feels cool and light compared with a plush bed, but it does not refrigerate or lower room temperature. On hot days, give your pet shade, fresh water and good airflow as well.
- Machine wash and let the mat dry completely before putting it back down. A gentle cycle and air drying will help the fabric last.
- Supervise pets that chew bedding, and take the mat away if it is being chewed or torn.
- Sizes are approximate; allow a small difference from the figures above.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this mat actually cool my pet down?
It is a breathable nylon mat with no gel, water or power source listed. It gives your pet a lighter, cooler-feeling surface than a plush or fleece bed, but it does not chill or refrigerate.
Is it worth using in fall and winter?
It is sold as an all-season mat. Many homes run warm with the heating on, and it also works as a crate liner or a car-seat mat. For a pet who feels the cold, a warmer bed is the better choice.
Can it go in the washing machine?
Yes. It is listed for machine washing. Let it dry fully before use.
Is it suitable for cats?
Yes. It is sold for dogs and cats, and the S size fits most cats comfortably.
Which size should I get for my dog?
S suits cats and small dogs, M suits small to medium dogs, and L gives a medium dog room to stretch. A large dog will only be partly on it.
How is this different from a padded cooling cushion?
This is a flat fabric mat rather than a filled cushion, so it is lighter, easier to move and machine washable.
