Buying Guide
Size of the Blanket
Blankets can be of various sizes, and not all of them will be ideal for covering your pet and keeping them warm.
Check the blanket’s size before buying to ensure you do not end up purchasing a shorter blanket that leaves your pet only half covered.
Machine washable
Your pets will be prone to dirtying their favourite blankets. Machine washing is hassle-free and hence look for blankets that are safe to be washed in a machine.
Water-Resistant
Fleece blankets have low water resistance, and wool has better water resistance. However, fleece blankets dry faster, but woollen blankets take longer to dry.
Insulation
Both fleece and wool are ideal for keeping your pets warm. These are better than cotton.
But when compared wool has better insulation than man-made synthetic wool or what is popularly known as fleece.
If you plan to buy a blanket to keep your pet warm during the cold months then maybe a woollen blanket will be a better choice.
Shrink Proof
When machine-washed, fleece has low chances of shrinking, but wool may shrink slightly when washed regularly.
If your pet blanket needs to be washed regularly and the frequency of washing is more, preferably buy the fleece ones for your beloved pets.
Flame Retardant
Wool is naturally flame retardant while fleece can melt at very high heat.
If you have a fireplace and your pet is very playful, then the chances of small fire accidents cannot be ruled out. You should opt for the wool blankets in that case.
Maintenance
Wool is very high maintenance, but fleece is extremely low maintenance. So when it comes to durability and cost-effectiveness, fleece blankets are the best.
They are also suitable for rough use and double up as rugs too.
