Description
Ultra‑Soft Dog Crate Mat – Washable, Grey
This crate mat is made from an exceptionally soft, short‑pile fabric that feels gentle against a dog’s skin, making it an ideal upgrade from hard plastic crate trays. The grey colour is neutral and modern, and the mat is designed to be washed regularly so it remains fresh even after heavy use. It provides a consistent layer of comfort that can help a dog settle more easily in a crate or carrier.
- Suitable for: Suitable for dogs of many sizes, from small breeds up to approximately 25 kg, including Beagles, Cocker Spaniels, and Border Collies. The mat is sized to fit standard crates, but it should always be measured against the crate interior to ensure a good fit. It also works for cats or small animals in a pen.
- Ideal scenarios: Primarily intended for use inside a dog crate, but it can also be placed on the floor of a vehicle, in a dog house, or on a tiled kitchen floor as a comfortable spot to rest. Its washable construction makes it practical for dogs that spend time outdoors and bring in dirt.
Material: The top surface is a smooth, ultra‑soft polyester micro‑suede that feels cosy without being too hot. The padding inside is a polyester fibre fill that gives a degree of cushioning. The underside is fabric‑covered and may have a subtle texture to help reduce slipping, though it is not a dedicated non‑slip backing. The edges are finished with a neat binding.
Structure and features: The mat is a simple rectangle with no raised edges, allowing a dog to stretch out fully. The ultra‑soft surface is kind to the nose and paws. It is thin enough to be placed under a crate tray, though most owners use it on top for comfort. The mat can be folded or rolled for transport or storage. It is also quick to dry after washing, which helps keep it in regular rotation.
Care and maintenance: Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softener. Air‑dry the mat; tumble drying on a low setting is possible, but high heat should be avoided. A quick shake after drying will fluff the padding.
Packaging: The mat is rolled and wrapped in a simple plastic sleeve. Upon receipt, unroll it and allow it to rest for a few hours so any creases can fall out. No assembly is needed.
Important notes: This is a single crate mat. While it can help make a crate more comfortable, it is not a chew‑proof item; dogs that persistently dig or chew should be supervised. A brief airing after unpacking is recommended, especially if the mat has been sealed for an extended period.
