Self-warming crate mat
This crate mat warms up on its own, with no electricity, cords or batteries. It reflects your dog's own body heat back to them, giving a soft, plush spot that is ready the moment they lie down. It is sized for dogs up to 41 kg (90 lbs) and can be machine washed.
How it works
Most crate pads only cushion. This mat adds a noiseless heat-reflective film between two layers of plush filling, so the warmth your dog gives off stays close to them instead of escaping into a cold floor.
The mat is built in five layers:
- Soft corduroy fleece on top, with plush, quilted channels that are gentle on paws
- Plush filling for cushioning and insulation
- A noiseless heat-reflective film that returns body heat without any crinkle
- A second layer of plush filling as a barrier against cold floors
- A non-slip dotted base that stops sliding and bunching
The mat is self-warming, not self-heating. There are no electronics, so it never gets warmer than your dog's own body heat.
No cords and no electricity
The mat uses no electricity at all, so it adds nothing to your energy bill. The reflective layer works quietly in the background to hold your dog's warmth.
Machine washable
The whole mat goes into the washing machine. Wash it cold on a gentle cycle, then tumble dry low or air dry.
Choose the right size
Measure the inside floor of your crate, then match it to the table below. If you use the mat outside a crate, choose by your dog's weight, and if your dog falls between sizes, size up. Crate sizes vary by brand, and the soft edges flex to fit up to about 1 in (2–3 cm) either way.
| Size | Mat size | Dog weight | Crate |
|---|---|---|---|
| S (Small) | 61 × 45 cm (24 × 18 in) | up to 11 kg | Fits 24" (61 cm) crate |
| M (Medium) | 76 × 51 cm (30 × 20 in) | up to 18 kg | Fits 30" (76 cm) crate |
| L (Large) | 89 × 58 cm (35 × 23 in) | up to 29 kg | Fits 36" (91 cm) crate |
| XL (Extra Large) | 104 × 73 cm (41 × 29 in) | up to 41 kg | Fits 42" (107 cm) crate |
Built for big dogs
The Extra Large measures 104 × 73 cm (41 × 29 in) and fits a standard 42" (107 cm) crate. A Labrador, Golden Retriever or German Shepherd can lie fully stretched out rather than curled into a corner.
Where to use it
In the crate, the mat makes the crate the warmest spot in the house.
On the sofa or dog bed, lay it over their usual bed as a warm topper.
In the car, it gives warmth with no outlet needed. Pair it with a dog seat belt.
On cold tile, stone and hard floors, it creates a warm zone without any wires.
Colours and sizes
Choose from Oat Cream, Stone Grey or Camel Brown, in sizes S, M, L or XL.

Frequently asked questions
Does it heat up on its own? It is self-warming rather than self-heating. There are no electronics or batteries inside. The noiseless heat-reflective film sits between two layers of plush filling and returns your dog's own body warmth to them, so the mat feels warm once they settle in.
How warm does it get? It never gets warmer than your dog's own body heat. There are no electronics to overheat and no thermostat to set, so it is comfortable to leave in the crate all night, all season.
Which size fits a 42" crate? The Extra Large (104 × 73 cm) fits a standard 42" (107 cm) crate. For a 36" crate choose Large (89 × 58 cm), for 30" choose Medium (76 × 51 cm) and for 24" choose Small (61 × 45 cm).
Is it big enough for a Labrador or German Shepherd? Yes. The Extra Large is rated up to 41 kg (90 lbs) and gives most Labradors, Golden Retrievers and German Shepherds room to lie fully stretched out. If you will use it on the floor rather than in a crate and your dog is between sizes, size up.
Is it safe for chewers? There are no cords or electrical parts to chew, which is one reason owners choose it over plug-in pads. It is not chew-proof, though, so supervise puppies and heavy chewers, and remove the mat if it gets damaged.
Will it crinkle? No. The reflective film is a noiseless type and sits between two layers of filling, so the mat stays quiet when your dog turns, digs or settles.
Can I put it on top of my dog's existing bed? Yes. It works well as a warm topper on bolster and sofa-style beds, on the floor, on the back seat of the car or inside a crate. The dotted non-slip base helps it stay in place.
