Pet beds

Pet beds with natural-fill options and washable covers, without polyurethane foam.

A cotton cover can hide very different cushioning underneath.  We favor cotton, wool and latex fills and describe the whole bed, including any moisture barrier or permitted synthetic components.  Removable covers make regular washing easier, while size and support need to suit the animal using it.

Woolygon Merino Wool Cat Cave — White Polka Woolygon Merino Wool Cat Cave — White Polka WOOL Why we recommend it: Felted merino wool forms both the walls and sleeping surface, so there is no separate foam cushion or polyester stuffing.  This White Polka cave is made by hand in Nepal and gives cats a sheltered place to curl up.  The flexible dome can also fold down into a mat.  Check the opening and dimensions against your cat's size, and spot-clean with cool water and mild soap instead of machine washing. Materials: merino wool $39.97★ 4.1 · 200+ ratings View on Amazon
Cat Cave Co Merino Wool Cat Cave — Charcoal and White Cat Cave Co Merino Wool Cat Cave — Charcoal and White WOOL Why we recommend it: Hand-felted merino wool gives this Nepal-made cave its structure without a foam base or polyester stuffing.  The maker identifies New Zealand as the wool source and provides a simple care routine: hand-wash in lukewarm water, reshape while damp and air-dry.  At about 19 inches wide, it is worth comparing the interior space with your cat's usual curled-up sleeping position. Materials: New Zealand merino wool felt $49.99 View product
CeCe's Wool Cotton Canvas and Wool-Filled Dog Bed — Natural, Large CeCe's Wool Cotton Canvas and Wool-Filled Dog Bed — Natural, Large COTTONWOOL Why we recommend it: CeCe's stuffs this bed with wool from New York farms inside a cotton muslin insert, then adds a sturdy cotton canvas cover.  Both sewing and stuffing are done in New York.  You can remove and wash the outer cover while spot-cleaning the wool-filled insert.  Choose Natural for the all-cotton cover; the stonewashed colors contain polyester. Materials: cotton canvas cover · cotton muslin inner cover · wool filling · zipper $190.00 View product
NaturoPet Organic Cotton and Virgin Wool Dog Bed — Small, Natural NaturoPet Organic Cotton and Virgin Wool Dog Bed — Small, Natural ORGANIC COTTONWOOLUSA PRODUCTION Why we recommend it: NaturoPet uses wool for the cushioning and organic cotton for both the inner and outer covers, so the bed does not rely on polyurethane foam or polyester filling.  It is handcrafted in the USA with U.S.-sourced wool and cotton.  The outer cover unzips for a cold machine wash; the wool-filled insert needs gentler spot cleaning. Materials: virgin wool filling · organic cotton inner cover · organic cotton outer cover · zipper $174.99 View product
Palava Organic Cotton and British Wool Dog Bed — Navy Thermos Flasks, Large Palava Organic Cotton and British Wool Dog Bed — Navy Thermos Flasks, Large ORGANIC COTTONWOOL Why we recommend it: Palava fills this dog cushion with British wool rather than polyester stuffing and uses a printed organic cotton outer.  The bed is made in the UK, with the cotton fabric woven and printed in Turkey.  Its flat, 85 × 85 cm shape gives dogs room to stretch out without bulky raised sides; this is a filled bed, not just a cover. Materials: organic cotton cover · British wool padding $107.00 View product
TwinCritters Felted Wool Cat Cave — Pebble Brown TwinCritters Felted Wool Cat Cave — Pebble Brown WOOL Why we recommend it: This roomy hideaway is felted from New Zealand merino wool, rather than built around foam or loose synthetic stuffing.  Nepalese artisans shape each cave by hand, and it can be pressed flat if your cat prefers an open sleeping mat.  Pebble Brown is the large version.  Vacuum loose hair and follow the maker's cool-water cleaning instructions to help preserve the felt's shape. Materials: New Zealand merino wool $62.88 View product
