Highlighted Reviews

β€” Lisa

"I bought this for my cat and he loves to sleep on it outside. Leave it undercover porch. I will get wet and needs to be dried out if it’s not somewhere covered. Inside cushion, high quality. I don’t see this flattening out or falling apart anytime soon."

β€” Patti

"They are decent pads, but don't feel cool at all to me (and I have a cooling pillow, so I know what it should feel like). The covers are very durable, but the canvas is almost hard. 2 of our 3 dogs won't get on them - I laid on the pad trying to entice my dogs to use them, that's how I know they are..."
