A Must For Traveling Pet Owners

We use this bolster in the car. We're frequent travelers and the dogs always accompany us. Its size (22" x 15.25") is ideal for crates, but we use the bed just as it is. The dogs appreciate the added comfort, especially the thicker raised edges for head resting. They used to be antsy in the car, but this quiets them down quickly. The feature I like best is their fur shedding is now contained to the bed. Our car used to be a mess, but the creamy color hides shedding well. When we reach a destination, the bed is very transportable. Because the bottom has minimal padding, it can be folded up to almost nothing, carried along and the dogs can still have their familiar bed in unfamiliar surroundings--something they appreciate very much. Because it is 100% polyester, the bed is machine washable. It easily fits into washing machines. Line drying is recommended, but it dries out very quickly, which is another plus for on-the-go adventures. This bed is an ideal traveling accessory--think of it as a security blanket except in bed form. Our pets love it as much as the dog beds they use in our home.

My cat LOVES this bed!

This is the best cat bed I've owned! My cat has been somewhat interested though mostly indifferent to all the cat beds I've brought into the house over the past 15 years - like most cats, he loves boxes, so I usually just have a towel in a box for him. Saw this on Amazon, reasonable price, decided to try it - HE LOVES IT! I'm actually getting more sleep because he's less interested in sleeping on the bed. I didn't realize that was affecting my sleep, but I was waking up enough when he'd get on and off the bed, I guess it was making a difference in my sleeping - because I feel much more rested now, after having this cat bed for about a month.

Our dog loved this bed so much that we bought two

Our dog loved this bed so much that we bought two. One stays in his crate at all times, the other one is mobile throughout the house (and on the road). In hindsight we created a monster, because he no longer wants to lay down anywhere without it and cries when we wash it. We wash this bed weekly and dry it on low heat in the dryer, even though the instructions say to air dry. We've never had any problems--the product is quite durable and has kept it's shape nicely. Our dog especially loves the raised edges of the bed and frequently sleeps with his body pressed against the edges for security. The raised edges have also helped us train him to stay on the bed when company comes over or we eat dinner, etc. because he can distinguish his boundaries. For the price, there is no reason not to have one of these around.

I bought this as a bed for my cat not ...

I bought this as a bed for my cat not expecting much of it for the price. My cat already has two beds which are nicer but they are getting kind of old. After putting some cat nip on the bed to entice him into getting into it he doesn't want to leave. I've had it for about two weeks and he sleeps in it every night and takes most of his naps in it. I'm actually going to buy a second one and throw out both of his old cat beds.

Perfect for making a dog bed out of a pallet!

These are 40" wide so they fit perfectly on a typical pallet! Cut the pallet to 26" and use the scrap to make the edges to hold the pad. I've attached a pic. Looks worth $200!

Dock-a-cat

This thing is amazing. For 5 years now my cat has been inconveniencing our sleep by curling up in the most uncomfortable (for us) places on our bed. Now that our toddler learned how to escape her crib, we have two wild animals sleeping in the bed with us. Enough was enough. Bought this bed and placed it where neither my husband or I sleep on the bed (middle bottom of our king sized bed). Since putting this out, our cat has not slept anywhere else which has has the added benefit of not covering our bed in cat hair. Jack-Ming (our cat) LOVES this thing and he hates everything in life, so that's saying something. He is 18 lbs and really fat and this fits his whole body. He even uses the bolsters like pillows. It's quite cute actually. HIGHLY recommend this if you are needing to dock your cat. Now I've got to figure out my toddler.....

I am amazed at how much the princess of the house has ...

I am amazed at how much the princess of the house has taken a shine to her new bed. When it was given to her our little princess, Candy, started to wag her tail with excitement and could not wait to hopped in. Everyday she gets in her bed she rolls around in it!! She is a little thing but she believes she is a Great Dane and her bed makes her feel like the Queen. She is so in love with it! She does not want to come out nor leave it behind. If she is going to the kitchen she will drag her bed with her. Wherever she goes; it has to come with her. I love that even though she sheds, it does not stay trapped in the soft fleece. It is easy to clean and very durable. It has been washed 3 times since she received for Christmas and each time it comes out looking brand new! The pet bolster is where she rest her head while she waits to be pampered. I am impressed with this bed. Candy loves it so we had to give it a 5 star!

the bed is HUGE and better suited for a dog than a cat

I ordered the 29 x 19" for my cat. Yes, the bed is HUGE and better suited for a dog than a cat. My cat is part Maine Coon and, although smaller than most Maine Coons, he's tall and long. His legs and arms frequently would dangle off his old bed. I knew I wanted something bigger and I probably overestimated, but as you can see from the pictures, he does utilize a lot of the space. As soon as I received the bed, I washed it according to the instructions and hung it to dry. The drying took about 15 hours (overnight). There's a fabric loop at the top of the bed for hanging. Easy peasy. My cat is ridiculously picky, as I assume many of your cats are, and immediately distrusted it. He cried when I lifted him into the bed and hopped out right away. But within 10 minutes, he was exploring it on his own. The first night he had trouble sleeping in it and I found him napping on the couch in the morning. (Normally he spends the night in bed with us.) Despite that rocky first night, he's been glued to it ever since. In fact, he took to this bed much faster than his last one. I had to put down his favorite blanket in the last bed to coax him into using it. This one? Not necessary. He loves resting his head and paws on the rim. That's his favorite part. There isn't much padding on the bottom, but the material is soft and the rim is squishy and comfortable as a head rest. Since I leave his bed on my bed, the bottom padding isn't a concern. I don't know how he'd feel about it on a hard floor. It'd be excellent for a crate because the material on the bottom 'slides' across plastic and wood. I'm relieved. It's always a gamble when you buy a cat something new like a cat tree or a bed. Many cats don't accommodate change well. I'm happy to report, though, that he snoozes in this all the time. Successful purchase!

So when I saw what "looked" like the beds I loved selling to customers

I used to work at a pet store in high school and sold this bed for about $90 USD. So when I saw what "looked" like the beds I loved selling to customers, I figured there had to be a catch for why this was so cheap. NOT AT ALL! It was the exact same material and make-up as what I feel now, was totally over-charging my customers for. Please note, this is a basic bed. If you want the fluffy huge beds that you can't keep clean - keep on looking. I love this bed because my dog (80lb black lab) absolutely loves it and it's sooooooo easy to keep clean. Throw it in the wash with some bleach, tumble dry and it's like new!!! Just a tip since I did use to sell these is that the sizes match up with the crates (NOT kennels) for dogs. Once my dog was out of her puppy phase and we used the crate as more of her "domain" to hang out in, I put one of these in there. It covers the entire floor of the crate and creates a comfier spot for her than just the plastic crate trays. In all, definitely recommend this product!

for the dog on the move

This may not be your one-size-fits-all dog bed. It's a bit lightweight for that. But it is as excellent product for the dog on the move. By way of example, we drove our mid-size Whipador 'Rhea' from Pennsylvania to Miami on a two-week road trip, then shipped her in a dog crate to our new home in Colombia. Here, she's got a plush bed on the floor of our bedroom, but still uses this AmazonBasics Padded Pet Bolster Bed as her day-time crash. Plus, we can move it outside to our patio if we're going to spend an extended time out-of-doors. She follows it wherever it goes and finds it a great mobile couch/bed. I don't know when Amazon introduced its AmazonBasics moniker, but it has proven very reliable to us. This product is one example. The price is certainly right, the materials are excellent, and it rolls up and carries in couple of seconds. Rhea's black fur eventually means some strong-armed learning, so we wish it came in a darker color. But you won't go wrong snagging the Bolster Bed for your dog's part-time lolly-gagging.
