Title: flectabed
Post by: Kay and Penny on May 17, 2019, 16:15:08 PM
Long shot but does anyone have the smallest size (Size1)  of Flectabed, or Flectabed Q? I have 3 spare covers which I would like to rehome, if anyone would  like them

pm hasn't come through, Frances

but if no one else can use them I'll send you all three if you give me your address - I still have a spare for Tiffany and Penny, and Tonka and Titch who live in kennels in my garden - all four love their flectabeds - but no point in keeping any more - I have so many because when Tosker was alive I had to change his cover twice a day because of his sneezing

Not that I want one, mine have plenty of beds, but I am curious, what are they, never heard of them?

They’re a heat reflective pad with an outer fleece or quilted cover.  They come in various sizes from small to huge and are useful for cats and dogs with arthritis.  https://www.petlifeonline.co.uk/product/dogs/dog-beds-and-bedding/flectabed-dog-cat-bedding/ (https://www.petlifeonline.co.uk/product/dogs/dog-beds-and-bedding/flectabed-dog-cat-bedding/)

Ah, thank you Frances. So far I haven't had an arthritic animal. I may do with Merlin as he gets older, as he limps from the snare damage. I'll bear it in mind.

they've got my two outdoor cats through three winters now, though I have to put waterproof covers on them as well as the quilted ones - my new addition Penny is spending 23 hours a day on one on top of my wardrobe, and they fit nicely into a Mr Snugs kennel, which is where Tiffany likes to go

so all in all although not cheap they have been very useful for me, and they don't crinkle like some cheaper kinds do
