Using this pet house bed is really easy. Just place it in your pet's favorite spot at home, like in a corner or inside their crate. Make sure the area is clean and dry. When you need to take your pet out on a trip, simply fold the bed up as it's designed to be portable. As for maintenance, you can wash it by hand or use a gentle cycle in the washing machine. After washing, let it dry in a well - ventilated area. Keep in mind that the color you see on your screen might be a bit different from the actual bed, and the size could have a small error because it's measured by hand. So, don't worry if there's a little difference in color or size. This bed is made to keep your pet comfortable and warm, so enjoy watching your furry friend relax in it!
