Troubleshooting
Mattress slides around in the crate or on the floor.
Ensure the non-slip oxford fabric base is clean and dry. Make sure the mattress fits snugly in the crate, reducing space for movement. On very smooth floors, consider placing a thin anti-slip mat underneath if used standalone.
Pet is reluctant to use the new mattress.
Introduce the mattress gradually. Place a familiar blanket or toy on it. You can also place treats on the bed or sit with your pet nearby to encourage them. Ensure the bed is in a quiet, comfortable spot.
The cover appears stained after washing.
For best results, address spills and dirt immediately. Pre-treat stubborn stains with a pet-safe stain remover before machine washing. Ensure you follow the washing instructions on the care label.
Mattress seems too firm or too soft for my pet.
The Silentnight mattress is designed with firm orthopaedic support. If your pet seems uncomfortable, observe their sleeping posture. The dual-sided design offers different textures (sherpa soft, oxford smooth) which might influence perception of firmness. Allow your pet time to adjust to the new support.
