Vet Bedding is one of the best materials for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and other small mammals.
ProFleece® was originally developed in Europe and quickly became the standard bedding material across the world. Made from 100% polyester, vet bedding is hygienic, non-irritant, and non-allergenic - which is why it is a popular choice among pet owners, veterinarians, and others who work with animals. An absolute must for whelping boxes, small animal cages, or exam tables.

Common uses for vet bedding:
Veterinarians:
Vet bedding is often used post-treatment to keep patients warm and comfortable. Pets with joint pain or recovering from surgery are especially helped by the thick bedding material. The material also works well on exam tables (especially the non-slip version) to provide a more comfortable surface for your patients.
At Home:
VetBed can be used as a soft layer in dog crates, kennels, on furniture, or in cars.
Top Breeders:
The super thick material is the easiest way to provide warmth and comfort for newborn puppies, kittens, and other small critters. Designed to replicate the natural fur of the parents, vetbed will help young critters get off to a good start. The woven material drains fluids away quickly - keeping your babies high and dry! It is also more hygienic than towels, blankets or carpet.
Vet Bedding has many benefits which makes it a superior material for animal hospitality:
Durable:
Made from synthetic fibers, it will withstand years of use, washing, and re-use. Since it lasts so long and can be reused multiple times, VetBed is a great investment for pet owners. Buy it once and use it for years!
Breathable:
The weave on vet bedding makes it breathable - helping keep your pet, patient, or newborns at the right temperature and comfortable. The extra thickness is much more breathable than a pile of folded up towels!
Hygienic:
The synthetic fibers (100% Polyester) helps prevent mold and dust-mites. Also, the nature of the weave allows moisture to wick through quickly so the material dries fast. This helps prevent the build-up of bacteria and fungus.
Safe:
The ProFleece® non-slip backing helps keep the vet bedding on slippery exam tables - providing a soft, stable surface to examine your patients. The extra thickness helps support developing limbs or patients recovering from surgery without the need for extra supporting structures that can get caught or tangled.
Frequently asked Questions: ProFleece® vs VetBed
The material is actually the same! ProFleece® is the original brand made in Europe while VetBed is made in the USA. The weave on the backside of the ProFleece® is a double-weave - which tends to hold up better and doesn't unravel as easily.
Both the domestic VetBed and the imported ProFleece® is 100% Polyester. This is a man-made material specifically designed to provide exceptional warmth and support. Since it it man-made, you will not have to worry about introducing your newborns to allergens (unlike wool) - making it a perfect bedding for whelping!
It really depends on the use and what your preferences are. The ProFleece® imported from Europe tends to hold up longer due to its double-weave. The anti-slip rubber backing also helps keep the material in place on slick surfaces.
The VetBed made in the USA is a more economic choice and will perform well in most situations. The VetBed works really well in crates where the material cannot slide around or at home on furniture or in cars.
The material is exactly the same... We just made ours thicker! The extra thickness keeps the dogs drier and warmer.
Absolutely! We find the original ProFleece from Europe cuts a lot cleaner and frays less than the US vetbed. We recommend using a utility or carpet knife. You only need to cut through the back fabric part. You may get a little fluff that comes loose - but the material will not continue to fray!
Absolutely! We have multiple rolls of various colors in-stock ready to ship! Buying in bulk is the most cost-effective way to purchase the vet bedding. Typical rolls are 5ft wide by 16ft long - however, we can get longer rolls if it suits your needs better. Keep in mind these longer rolls will have to ship via freight carrier.
