Product Information
Full details
The Simply 4 Pets Cooling Mat is an ideal solution for small-to-medium dogs and cats who struggle with heat during the warmer months, providing a reliable, breathable surface to keep pets comfortable indoors or while traveling. By utilizing advanced sandwich mesh fabric, this mat promotes consistent airflow to maintain a cool temperature without the need for refrigeration; however, users should note that it relies on ambient temperature rather than active mechanical cooling, meaning it works best in already shaded or cool environments.

FAQs
Does this mat need to be frozen or refrigerated?
No, the Simply 4 Pets Cooling Mat works through passive cooling via breathable mesh fabric and does not require water, freezing, or refrigeration.
Is this safe if my pet chews it?
The materials are non-toxic, but the mat is not a chew toy. If you notice your pet consistently trying to tear the mat, we recommend supervision.
Can I use this for a large dog?
The 50x70cm size is best suited for small to medium-sized pets. For larger breeds, please consider the 90x70cm or 120x90cm versions.
How do I wash it?
You can hand wash or machine wash it on a cold, gentle cycle. Always air dry the mat to maintain its shape and durability.
Can it be used outdoors?
Yes, it is excellent for outdoor use in shaded areas, such as patios or balconies, but avoid placing it in direct, intense sunlight.
Troubleshooting
The mat feels warm to the touch
The mat works by dissipating body heat. If the room is very hot, the mat will eventually reach the room temperature. Move the mat to a cooler, shaded area to allow it to reset its cooling efficiency.
Mat slides on floor surfaces
Ensure the floor is clean and free of dust or pet hair, as debris can prevent the non-slip fabric backing from gripping the surface properly.
