Finding the right size

Three quick checks

1. 1

   Measure your pet, nose to tail

   With them standing, measure from the base of the tail to the tip of the nose. Add 6 to 12 inches so they can stretch out fully.

2. 2

   Note how they sleep

   Sprawlers want an open lounger or mat with room to spread; curlers and burrowers prefer a bolster or cave that cradles.

3. 3

   Size up for shared or senior pets

   Two pets who share, or an older pet who needs easy joint support, are more comfortable one size up.
