Snuggle season: Kmart's 'buy of the winter' wins over pet owners

As the chilly season approaches, pet owners are on the lookout for dog beds to make sure their furry companions stay warm and snug.

Kmart Australia has stepped up to the plate with their latest release, what many are calling the 'must-have' item of the winter, and has captured widespread attention from pet owners.

This item is designed with high-quality materials that ensure pets stay comfortable even on the coldest nights.


Kmart’s Pet Bed Self Warming ($35), has been met with positive reviews from shoppers who are declaring their 'obsession' with the product.

It's designed with a thermal lining that reflects your pet's body heat, providing a warm haven without the need for electricity.

The soft faux fur will keep your pet relaxed, providing a comfortable place to unwind.

‘It'll keep [your dog or cat] cosy and warm all day and all night,’ a satisfied customer said, sharing a video of her poodle.

‘My dog didn't leave his bed all day.’

‘My dog has one of these, and he loves it. Five stars,’ another shopper shared.

This innovative feature also offers peace of mind by minimising the risk associated with electric heating pads.

The bed isn't just a hit with pets; it's also designed with pet owners in mind.

Its removable and washable cover makes it easy to clean—a feature especially appreciated during the muddy winter months.


A lot of people found out the 'pet' bed can be used for other things, too.

‘I bought three and used them for sleeping in my car when I go camping,’ one reviewed.

‘They are so comfortable.’

'I might get one for my toddler,’ another said.

Others were eager to incorporate the discounted item into their households.

‘I'm getting this for my cat,’ a shopper said.

‘Your pet will feel like they're lounging in a five-star hotel suite, complete with a personal heater!’ someone else remarked.


However, the product isn't without its critiques. While many were satisfied with the size and colour, a few shoppers expressed a desire for larger sizes and a variety of colour options to match their home decor.

‘I would love an XL size and the option to swap covers with different colours. I also desperately need a 100 per cent waterproof cover option as my dog pees on dog beds, and it takes so long to wash the stuffing,’ one commented.

‘Love this bed, but white? It would not last a day in my household, especially now with the morning dew,’ another lamented.

Despite these minor criticisms, the overall consensus is that Kmart's self-warming pet bed is a winner.


With its affordable price tag and the comfort it offers, it's no wonder that pet owners are rushing to get their hands on this winter essential.

If you haven't already, it might be time to add this bargain. Your pet will thank you for the extra warmth and comfort during the colder months.

This is just one of many new ideas for pets. Another cool item from Kmart, this pet stroller is getting a lot of attention from pet owners.

Maybe you could buy a couple of cheap pet blankets in the colours you prefer and sew elastic in the edges like a fitted sheet so when dirty you can wash them.
Sounds like a great bed for dogs who sleep on the trampoline beds.
Kind regards to all Vicki
