Dogs and cats can't sweat it out.
We cool down by sweating. Dogs and cats mostly can't: they pant, and they look for a cool surface to press their belly against. That's why they lie on the bathroom tiles in January. The Coolabah Cooling Mat gives them that cool surface anywhere: an ice-silk top that feels cool the moment they lie down, a breathable core that stops heat building up, and no gel inside to leak or chew.

Coolabah vs. gel mats
Gel mats leak, puncture and go warm. Ours doesn't.

Questions, answered
Why does my pet lie on the tiles all afternoon?
It's how dogs and cats cool down. They barely sweat, so they press their thin-furred belly and paw pads against something cooler than they are. The problem: tiles, the bath and the sink warm up to body temperature within minutes, so they keep moving spot to spot. The mat gives them a cool-to-the-touch spot right where they already rest.
We only have fans. Isn't that enough?
A fan cools you by evaporating your sweat. Dogs and cats don't sweat much, so on a 40-degree day a fan mostly pushes warm air around. As one owner told us: "in high heat it's just blowing hot air." A cool surface works on their belly directly.
Does it need to go in the fridge?
No. It's cool to the touch straight away, with no fridge, power or water needed.
Will my pet use it?
Most dogs and cats find it on their own because it's noticeably cooler than the floor next to it. If yours doesn't, you're covered by our 90-day guarantee.
Which size should I get?
Measure nose to base of tail and pick the next size up. You can choose a different size and colour for each mat in your bundle.
Is it safe for cats?
Yes. It's gel-free and soft, and the S size is made for cats.
