Fleece Bolster Dog Bed for Dogs and Cats

You've watched him circle three times on the kitchen tile and give up on the thin blanket. Cold floors aren't a bed. He wants something warm and soft with an edge to tuck his chin against, and that is what this is.

This fleece bolster dog bed is a rectangle of short plush fleece over fluffy cotton fill, with a raised edge on all four sides, so a dog or cat settles in and stays there.

What the bed is made of:

• Short plush fleece: soft with a low pile, so it holds warmth without getting hot and does not trap fur the way long shag does
• Fluffy PP cotton fill: it cushions and springs back, so the bed keeps its shape after months of use
• Bolsters on four sides: a raised rim all the way around, so there's always something to rest a head against
• Non-slip Oxford base: it grips hardwood and tile and resists moisture, so the bed stays put when they jump in
• Machine washable: the whole bed goes in on a gentle cycle, so it stays fresh through daily use

Plush on top, cotton underneath. The fleece is what they feel and the PP cotton is what holds them up, so the surface stays soft while the cushion does the work and neither one flattens out.

The base grips the floor. The Oxford fabric underside is quilted and non-slip, so the bed doesn't skate across the tiles when a dog turns three circles before lying down.

Into the machine and back on the floor. Gentle cycle, tumble dry low, and the fleece keeps its texture, so washing it becomes a habit rather than a project.

Getting the size right

Five sizes, XS through XL, in Brown or Black. Choose by how your pet sleeps rather than by weight. A cat or a small dog that curls into a circle suits the XS or S.

A dog that sleeps pressed along one edge suits the M, and a dog that stretches right out needs the L or XL.

The bolsters run all the way around, so the bed measures larger on the outside than the sleeping area inside. Measure your pet stretched out, nose to tail base, and check it against the inside length and weight limits on the size chart in the gallery. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one.

Safety note: Dry it fully before putting it back down, since damp fill holds odor. Replace the bed if a dog starts pulling the fill out rather than sleeping on it.

Pick the size by how he sleeps, put it where he already naps, and the bare floor stops being the bed.
