FAQs
Is this mat suitable for puppies?
Yes, it is excellent for crate training and provides a comfortable, hygienic surface for young pets.
Can I use this in the back of my car?
Absolutely, the non-slip backing makes it ideal for protecting your car boot from mud and moisture.
What is the best way to dry the mat?
We recommend air drying flat to preserve the life of the non-slip coating, though a gentle, low-heat cycle may be used.
Is the material chew-proof?
No, while the fleece is durable for resting, it is not designed to withstand heavy chewing or scratching.
How often should I wash it?
Washing frequency depends on usage; however, regular weekly cleaning is recommended to maintain optimal hygiene.
Troubleshooting
The mat slides on very slick surfaces.
Ensure the surface is clean and free of dust or debris before placing the mat down, as dust can interfere with the grip of the non-slip backing.
Odors persist after washing.
Try using an enzymatic laundry cleaner specifically formulated for pet accidents to break down odor-causing proteins effectively.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the mat, simply place it on a flat, clean surface with the non-slip side facing down. For crate compatibility, measure the internal floor space of your crate before selecting your size to ensure a perfect fit without overlapping. To care for the mat, wash it on a gentle cycle in your machine with pet-safe detergent. Avoid using harsh bleach or fabric softeners, as these can irritate sensitive pet skin and degrade the moisture-wicking properties of the fleece. Air drying is recommended to maintain the integrity of the non-slip backing, though low-heat tumble drying may be used if the product label permits.
