I've done several reviews on Arc-Chill products and I love them.
They are amazing in that the Arc-Chill fabric has a lovely cooling effect that
makes it perfect for hot weather! It's in the technology. By incorporating
microscopic (nano) particles of jade into polyester thread, the result is
passive thermal wicking. I can't tell you how much of a lifesaver our cooling
blanket and comforter have been on our hot summer nights. And I love my
cooling t-shirt. No, it's not like air conditioning, but these products make a
real difference in heat wave comfort level.
Anyway, when I was contacted about reviewing
Rywell's cooling mats for pets, I said yes!
Now, I'm going to be honest here and tell you up front that after the mats
arrived, my cats decided they were going to be Cats and not cooperate. Posing
on a pretty comfy pet mat wasn't their idea! No amount of coaxing or tempting
treats would make them agree to even give it a try.

| "You can't make me, Mom." |
Well, I thought, this is embarrassing. How can I write a review with uncooperative cats?
My own impressions were that it's silky soft and cool to touch. It has a skid-proof backing and is machine washable. And it changes colors with the temp! It comes in different sizes (the one you see in the pics is size small) all the way up to XX-large. I'm thinking that one of these would be a lovely way to cool my own feet on a hot day, and the double extra large would make a great nap mat for human kids! There are lots of uses for outdoor, camping, and off-grid activities.
Finally, Sam (my King of Comfort Cat) agreed to test it out.

I held my breath. Would he stay, or run away?
