I was looking at getting the Eco Nap or Nature Nap from West Paw Designs. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with these, and how well they wash, hold up, etc. The last bed I bought for my cats [from Petsmart] looked disgusting after it's first wash and hair was impossible to remove from it.

I guess not!
I went ahead and ordered the Nature Nap. It was a little less expensive.

I have to date only seen the eco line of dog beds ... $$$ to high for me and a bunch of recycled bottles IMHO

I have a cat bed from West Paw!

I've only had it a few months, but Alpine LOVES it. She has this bed and a more cushy one with higher sides that she totally ignores in favor of the West Paw one. I'll probably get her a second one for lounging in the sun by the bay window!

Good to hear!
Ramsay much prefers to sleep on a tshirt on the floor, or a magazine. He's never touched the "donut" bed that we had, so I'm thinking he will like the mat.

It wasn't much more than any of the other beds that I looked at. It was $22 for a 24x19".
I think it's worth the extra money to get a quality American made, and ecologically responsible product.

Yup, I think the one I bought was also around $20. I'm also a bit of a "granola gal" and liked that it was made with recycled materials! I bought the solid sage green mat, FYI!

I ordered this one, but from a different website. The website was offering free shipping at the time. But, the pet store I went into had them for even less. They were $16 for the x-small size, but the workers were being a little less than friendly so I went online. Guess you just have to look around.

Well, Ramsay loves the bed. It came this afternoon. I opened the box and tossed it on the couch and went to get scissors to cut the tags off. When I came back Ramsay was already curled up in the middle and he's been there every since.

Yay!!

FYI, I ended up buying a second mat (a brown Nature Nap--XS) last week and Alpine loves it just as much as the first one. She rotates between the two mats--one in the big bay window, one on the floor by the kitchen!
