Have you started hating on EA's current pet beds and you ever wonder why they don't work well with your modern-y interior?... Neither have I! But, because I didn't like EA's pillow pet beds as much these days after all these years I figured 'hey let's make some new ones!'.
After a month of meshing my butt off and having my brain not to make more props, I am finally releasing these pet beds!

The cool techy bits that no one cares about!

First of all it needs Pets to work The blankets and the rugs would show up as they are base game compatible, but the pet beds won't if you don't have pets installed! It's also made with patch 1.67 if curious.
The rugs can be used as... well rugs! And the cool bit is, is the fact that they snap onto the pet bed!:



See! Snapidy snap snap! :D

Unfortunately the blankets don't do this. However, you do need to use the cheat 'moveobjects on' in order to get them onto the bed.

Unfortunately there was one thing I couldn't fix which is the fact that the dog will bleed through the pet bed when getting on, yet does snap onto the right height when laying down. So the dog only will look a bit off when stepping on/off the pet bed! The reason is that if I were to make a fix for this, it would automatically replace the original pet bed animations as well :/

Everything is hand drawn (and Blender baked) except for the cow hide. I got that from the internet though (See Texture Credits) The other rug is a conversion from ts4.
