Which Cave Is Right for Your Pet?
Toby · Small
For cats and toy breeds up to 8 lbs, like Chihuahuas and Yorkies. A snug, den-like hideaway for pets who love to burrow.
Lucy · Medium
For cats and small dogs up to 12 lbs, like Shih Tzus and Toy Poodles. Roomy enough to stretch out, still snug and secure. Also in cream / brown.
Buddy · Large
For small to medium dogs up to 18 lbs, like Frenchies and Boston Terriers, who like room to turn around or curl up with a toy. Also in cream / brown.
Harry · XX-Large
For larger dogs up to 55 lbs, or two smaller pets who like to share. A spacious den with a wide, easy-access door. Also in cream / brown.
How to Measure Your Pet
- Have your pet stand naturally on a flat surface.
- Height: measure from the floor to the top of the shoulders. Compare this with the door opening height so your pet can walk in comfortably.
- Length: measure from the base of the neck to the base of the tail. Your pet should be able to turn around and lie down inside the cave.
- Weight: check the "Fits pets up to" column above.
Tip: if your pet is between sizes or loves to sprawl, choose the larger size.
Setup Guide
Every Nooee cave ships flat in its travel bag and zips together in a couple of minutes. The cave has three parts: the cone-shaped body, the round base and the cushion.
1. First-time setup
- Take the cave out of the bag and unroll it on the floor.
- Bring the two edges of the body together and zip the side seam closed to form the cone.
- Line up the round base with the bottom edge and zip it all the way around.
- Slide the cushion in through the door and smooth it flat.
2. Taking it apart
- Pull the cushion out through the door.
- Unzip the base all the way around and set it aside.
- Unzip the side seam so the body lies flat.
- Wash the parts (see care below), or roll everything up into the travel bag.
3. Putting it back together
- Lay out the body, base and cushion.
- Start the side zipper at the bottom edge and zip upward to the tip.
- Zip the base on, working your way around from one side of the door.
- Pop the cushion back in. Ready for napping.
Tip: if a zipper feels stiff, hold the two felt edges flat and lined up as you zip. Don't force it around tight curves.
Care & Cleaning
| Part | Washing | Drying |
|---|---|---|
| Cave, sizes S to L (Toby, Lucy, Buddy) | Machine wash cold on a delicate cycle, or hand wash | Air dry only |
| Cave, sizes XL to XXL (Molly, Harry) | Spot clean, or hand wash cold | Air dry. No machine drying |
| Cushion (all sizes) | Machine wash cold on a delicate cycle, or hand wash | Tumble dry low or air dry. Avoid high heat |
Unzip the cave before washing so the felt can be cleaned and dried flat. A lint roller between washes keeps pet hair off the felt.
