Belvedere Cushion – Indigo

Monarchio Belvedere Cushion comes with a removable, washable cover that allows for easy removal of small impurities. This can be a straightforward process, nevertheless, here are some suggestions to keep the bed clean and comfortable for your furry friend:

Regular Spot Cleaning:

• Use a damp cloth to wipe away any visible dirt, mud, or small stains on the cover. This will help prevent the need for frequent washing and keep the bed looking clean.

Sticky Roller or Lint Brush:

• Invest in a sticky roller or lint brush to quickly remove loose fur, hair, and lint from the bed cover. This is especially useful for maintaining a tidy surface between washes.

Vacuuming:

• If your pet bed is placed in an area where dirt and hair accumulate, use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to remove debris from the cover. This can be particularly effective for larger beds.

Frequent Cover Removal:

• While the cover is machine washable, consider removing it regularly (e.g., once a week) to shake out any loose debris and to give it a good once-over. This helps prevent the buildup of dirt and odors.

Washing Instructions:

• Top cushion and the main cover unzip for cold water, machine wash, and line dry.
• Typically, it’s recommended to use a mild detergent, avoid bleach or bleach alternatives, and wash in cold water.
• No heat.
• Inserts and foam are not washable. Please spray a solution of half white vinegar on the soiled area and air dry.
• Make sure to zip up any zippers before washing to prevent damage.

Air-Drying:

• Whenever possible, air-dry the cover instead of using a dryer. This helps to preserve the fabric and any waterproofing or stain-resistant treatments.

Use Pet-Friendly Cleaners:

• If you need to tackle a specific stain or odor, use pet-friendly cleaners to ensure the safety of your pet. Avoid harsh chemicals that may irritate their skin.

Rotate Bedding:

• Consider having a spare pet bed so you can rotate between cleanings. This way, your pet always has a comfortable place to rest while one bed is being cleaned.

Protective Layers:

• Even though our products are water repellent in their nature, consider placing a waterproof or protective layer between the cover and the mattress if your pet is prone to accidents. This can help prevent liquids from reaching the inner filling.

Regular Inspections:

• Periodically inspect the bed for any signs of wear and tear. Repair or replace the cover if needed to maintain the bed’s overall durability.

By incorporating these suggestions into your routine, you can ensure that your pet’s bed remains clean, comfortable, and in good condition for a long time.
