MidWest Quiet Time Fleece Dog Crate Mat

I originally got these as just something for one big older dog to lay in to help her arthritis and our hard wood floors in the living room. Well... the other three younger pups decided they wanted it too. It must be cozy! I also like how the bottom is made of nice material and the straps that are on it to use on a crate tray. I ended up buying another crate mat ... and will probably buy one for the bedroom ... even though it is carpeted. They do shed at first .. but a simple washing and it stopped. There was not much fuzz in the lint trap. It makes me believe some of the shedding was from the dogs digging in them to get a cozy spot. .LOL! Even our new kitten loves this!

I have purchased this dog bed in the same size before, so I was surprised when our re-order seemed too small for our dog’s crate. I have a standard 42in wire crate, and ordered the 42in crate mat. You can see from the photos that the mat measures in at about 39in and is even shorter when you actually press the raised sides of the bed up against the crate walls. There is significant gapping between the mat and the sides of the crate, leaving the plastic tray exposed. I am disappointed in the inconsistent sizing of this bed between orders, and the false advertising of the measurements and product photos. This bed fit much better in our 36in wire crate, despite following the sizing recommendations I have purchased this dog bed in the same size before, so I was surprised when our re-order seemed too small for our dog’s crate.

This bed fit much better in our 36in wire crate, despite following the sizing recommendations in the product description. That said, I can’t even recommend sizing up to a larger bed, because the first order arrived with appropriate measurements for our crate and we didn’t have any issues until it needed to be replaced for normal wear and tear. Very frustrating. … more

I didn’t see any others in this size or in a dark color so got this one. I washed it once and the bolster is already flat in some places. I have the same one in a smaller size which has also had this issue. I have a third one that is white, but a different brand which still has it’s shape, though a bit flat from so much use! SO if that bolster is important to you, you might want to find another brand.

This bed used to be a perfect fit for my boy's Kuranda bed. The straps underneath made it really easy to attach to the bed and keep from slipping. The bed is no longer the same size! Not 42" as advertised. I had to rig the straps to make it fit and quite honestly, it is not the best look.

Initially I bought two of the mats for our Kitty Crates. When I noticed our cats going into the crates several times to nap, I decided to get a few more to scatter around the house. They seem to love sleeping on them and it makes me feel good when I see how often they use them. They're well made and just the right size for a cat nap.

my dog made a huge whole in this what a shame the hole is so big and half the inside is missing I guess he thought of it more as a toy than a bed. Its amazing what a dog can do when its bedtime. thank gosh I realized before the whole inside didn't go missing. What a waste hopefully I find something for my puppy.

This bed fits perfectly inside the doghouse that I bought and it’s just enough padding. My little girl got right in and settled down with her blanket and squeaky bone. I only use it inside right now, until my outdoor furniture is set up and then I’ll put it outside when we’re all outside so she has a comfortable place to lay in the shade. She’s a mini Dachshund and she has more than enough room on the bed and in the doghouse.

I bought this for Oliver to use as a bed. He's been using one of those round "donut" beds, which he loves - spends all his time in it. But it is now too small for him. Although the MidWest mat was perfect and what I wanted, it was too small and I had to return it. Will order a larger size with my next order

I've looking for sth to replace my cat's bed. Due to the reasons, some were too pluffy, too high walls, etc. my cat wouldn't use it. I adventured this item, 18" & 30" and they are quite satisfactory. Enough cushion, low walls. My cat loves it. Only problem, 18" being too small compared to the existing 18" mat we've use for years, so I recommend you to buy one size bigger-22"- for your small sized pet. I'm gonna use 18" mat for the pet carrier. My cat is happy on her 30" mat which is placed on couch.

It fits perfectly in my wire crate, has elastic corner loops that attach to the tray. I have 3 light-weight blankets along the sides, only because she's used to them. Before the crate arrived, I put it on the living room carpet, and she immediately went to it, laid on it, rolled onto her side and squirmed around. If she's happy, I'm elated!
