I put "as and when" but that could mean every day , every other day or once a wk.

it will all depend on whether 1) they have been sick on it (something they both like to do) 2) how dirty they are,

But they never go longer than once a wk

Just invested in a couple of tuffie beds, but still put covers on them..

Oh forgot , the the throws on the sofa, get changed every other day

As often as I wash my own, because that's where they sleep!

Actually this time of year Pepper tends to sleep on her bed on the floor because she gets too hot with us. She has a folded up quilt with a brown fleece on top so that's as and when I think it needs it.

The 2 little ones always sleep with us, at the moment Gozo's preferred spot is tucked behind my knees and Enzo likes to be under OH's chin!

Never! we have a Tuffie bed and the hair doesn't stick and the material it is made of means that it does not smell at all. I wouldn't go back to smelly fabric beds if you paid me.

I put an empty quilt cover on the bed, so that gets washed every other day, well, I have lots of them, so just swap it, but the actual BED never gets dirty that way, so I don't wash that very often. It gets hoovered, shaken outside for the gritty bits, or steam cleaned if I've gone mad and got the steam cleaner out!

As & when here! Mouse seems to have sprouted a bed in every room (thanks to 6yr old daughter!). Her bedding didn't get mucky until now (in season). I'll always shake & vacuum but will only wash when needed.

I wash my dogs beds every Sunday morning unless they get it manky in the week and it has to be done before then. Sadie's and Bear's both don't get done that often though, probably as and when theirs needs it, my lot however, are a bit more manky than they are, lol!
