Specifications and measurements

Assembly: Quick zip-and-set

The bed arrives flat and requires no tools. The metal frame slides into fabric channels, and the back is sealed with a sturdy zipper. Most people can set it up in under two minutes. The zipper is designed to lie flat and stay secure during use. If you need to clean the fabric cover, unzip it and remove it from the frame — the polyester material is machine-washable? The product data does not specify washing instructions, so spot cleaning is recommended unless the manufacturer provides care details.

Mesh ventilation and summer comfort

The elevated design lifts your pet off hot floors, allowing air to circulate underneath and through the breathable mesh. This helps reduce heat buildup, making the bed a good choice for warm weather or homes without air conditioning. The mesh is tightly woven yet porous enough for airflow, and the fabric is wear-resistant for everyday use. Note: the bed is not waterproof, so place it in a dry area.

Year-round usability

While the elevated cot is ideal for summer, it can transition to colder months. The manufacturer suggests adding a plush cushion and blankets on top for extra softness and warmth. The open underside still provides ventilation, but the added padding traps heat. This flexibility makes the bed usable in any season, though it is not insulated.

Frequently asked questions

Is the bed suitable for both cats and dogs?

Yes. The Pozico bed is recommended for small dogs and cats. The 18.9 x 18.9 inch surface gives small breeds like Chihuahuas, Yorkies, or adult cats enough room to stretch or curl up.

How do I clean the bed?

The product documentation does not include cleaning instructions. The fabric cover is made of polyester and can be unzipped from the frame. Many owners spot clean with mild soap and water or hand wash the cover. Check the care tag sewn into the bed for specific guidance.

Does the metal frame support heavy pets?

The frame is described as durable, but the bed is intended for small dogs and cats. The exact weight limit is not listed. If your pet is on the heavier side of small (e.g., 20+ pounds), monitor the frame for signs of bending. The bed is not designed for medium or large breeds.

Can I use the bed outdoors?

The materials — polyester and metal — are not specifically rated for outdoor use. While you could place it on a porch, it is best kept indoors to avoid moisture damage and rust. The bed is not waterproof and should not be left in rain.
