Summer fun is upon us, but for our pets, these soaring temps are giving more than uncomfortable—they can also be dangerous. As responsible pet parent, it's crucial to take steps to keep our fur kids cool and safe. Green Pet offers innovative solutions to help you beat the heat.
Why Use a Cooling Mat?
Cooling mats are a 10/10 way to provide immediate relief from the heat. Here are some benefits of using a cooling mat for your pets:
Instant Cooling Relief: Cooling mats like the Cool Pet Pad and Chillz Gel Mat provide immediate comfort by lowering your pet's body temperature.
Safe and Non-Toxic: Green Pet’s cooling mats are made with a pet-safe, non-toxic gel that absorbs heat from your pet.
Eco-Friendly: Our cooling mats do not need water, refrigeration, or electricity, making them an energy-conscious, eco-friendly choice.
Easy to Use and Maintain: Simply place the mat where your pet likes to rest. They are easy to clean and maintain with a damp cloth and mild soap.
Green Pet's Cooling Solutions
Cool Pet Pad
The Cool Pet Pad is a self-cooling mat that activates as soon as your pet lays on it. The pressure-activated cooling gel absorbs heat from your pet’s body, providing up to 3 hours of cooling relief. It automatically recharges within 15-20 minutes of non-use, making it a convenient and effective solution for hot summer days.
Chillz Gel Mat
The Chillz Gel Mat offers similar benefits, just a more budget friendly option. This mat features a more liquid-based cooling gel that activates on contact and provides a little less cushion than our firm-gel Cool Pet Pad. They both help reduce your pet’s body temperature efficiently. It's perfect for pets who love to lounge in different areas, and just as lightweight and portable as the Cool Pet Pad.
Cooling Mat Covers
To enhance the lifespan and comfort of your cooling mats, Green Pet offers cooling mat covers. These covers are designed to fit perfectly over your Cool Pet Pad or Chillz Gel Mat, providing an extra layer of comfort while protecting the mat from dirt and wear.
Additional Tips to Keep Your Pets Cool
Hydration is Key: Always ensure your pets have access to fresh, cool water. Consider adding ice cubes to their water bowl to keep it cool longer.
Provide Shade: Create shaded areas in your yard or use an umbrella to protect your pets from direct sunlight.
NOTE: our cooling mats work best indoors, but if you ever use it outside, be sure you are in the shade!
Limit Exercise: Avoid vigorous exercise during the hottest parts of the day. Opt for early morning or late evening walks when temperatures are cooler.
Use Fans or AC: If your pet spends time indoors, use fans or air conditioning to keep the environment cool.
Frozen Treats: Offer your pets frozen treats like ice cubes made from broth or pet-safe ice cream to help them cool down.
Grooming: Regular grooming can help keep your pet’s coat free of mats and tangles, allowing better air circulation and keeping them cooler.
Keeping your pets cool during a summer heatwave is essential for their health and well-being. Green Pet’s Cool Pet Pad, Chillz Gel Mat, and cooling mat covers provide effective and eco-friendly solutions to help your pets stay comfortable.
