Did you know that dogs sleep for nearly 11 hours a day, while cats snooze for up to 13 to 16 hours? With so much time spent resting, it’s vital to keep their bedding clean, fresh, and hygienic.
Regular washing of your pet’s bed helps to maintain a healthy sleeping environment and can prevent the build-up of dirt, bacteria, allergens, and odours. How often you should wash your dog or cat’s bedding depends on factors like outdoor activity, muddy walks, or incontinence. ProFleece pet bedding is fully machine washable, making it simple and convenient to keep your pet’s sleeping area fresh and hygienic. For best results, we recommend washing at 30°C, a gentle, eco-friendly temperature that helps maintain the softness and durability of your bedding over time.
