Product Information

Full details

The Vet Fleece Original Greenback Vet Bed is a premium medical-grade pet bedding solution designed for breeders, veterinarians, and pet owners who need superior comfort and hygiene for their animals. It features a heavy-duty 1200gsm construction that wicks moisture away to keep pets dry and warm, making it ideal for post-surgery recovery, whelping, and general crate use; however, while it is highly durable, its dense pile requires careful attention to washing instructions to maintain its integrity over time.

FAQs

Can I cut the Vet Fleece to fit my specific crate?

Yes, the unique construction allows you to cut the fleece with sharp scissors to your desired shape without the backing fraying.

Is this bedding suitable for puppies?

Absolutely. It is highly recommended for whelping as it provides a safe, dry, and warm environment for newborn animals.

How often should I wash the mat?

For hygiene, it is recommended to wash it weekly or immediately if soiled. It is durable enough to handle frequent washing cycles.

Does the mat slip on hard surfaces?

The specialized Greenback backing is designed to provide good grip on most surfaces, though placing it inside a crate or cage provides the best stability.

Why shouldn't I use fabric softener?

Fabric softeners leave a film on the fibers that neutralizes the moisture-wicking technology, preventing the bed from keeping your pet dry.

Troubleshooting

The mat is not wicking moisture away effectively.

Check if fabric softener was used in the wash. Residue from softener clogs the fibers. Wash the mat again using only water or a small amount of non-biological detergent to strip the residue.

The fleece fibers are starting to matt or clump.

The bed may be being washed at too high a temperature or dried incorrectly. Use a pet-safe slicker brush to gently tease the fibers apart and ensure you are not using high heat in the dryer.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent moisture-wicking capabilities keep pets dry
  • High density (1200gsm) provides superior warmth and comfort
  • Machine washable at high temperatures for deep cleaning
  • Hypoallergenic and safe for post-surgery recovery
  • Durable backing prevents slipping and withstands heavy wear

Cons

  • Requires specific washing care to avoid fiber matting
  • May be too thick for some smaller transport carriers
  • Edges may shed small amounts of fiber after initial cuts

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your Vet Fleece, ensure the mat is laid flat in the crate or kennel with the fleece side facing up. If the mat is larger than your space, it can be easily cut to size using sharp scissors without the risk of significant fraying.

Care Instructions:

  1. Shake out loose hair and debris before washing.
  2. Machine wash at 40°C for daily cleaning or up to 60°C for disinfecting.
  3. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can coat the fibers and prevent proper moisture wicking.
  4. Air dry or tumble dry on a low, cool heat setting to maintain the integrity of the fibers.
