Abstract: The invention relates to an orthopedically designed, easily washable animal bed. The present invention utilizes a specially designed quilting pattern which provides proper orthopedic support for the sleeping or resting animal. The bed is easily machine washable and filled with sanitary material so that the bed is far more sanitary than existing animal beds. The bed is also designed so that a recess in the bed may be created so that the sleeping animal is able to satisfy its inborn instinct to withdraw into a recess while sleeping.
