Steps

1. Read the care label.

   Before you wash your pillow pet, read the care label to see if there are any special instructions. Some pillow pets may need to be hand-washed or spot-cleaned.

   If your pillow pet has a removable pillowcase, take it off before washing. This will help to prevent the pillowcase from shrinking or fading.

   If your pillow pet has any stains, pretreat them with a stain remover. Apply the stain remover to the stain and let it sit for the amount of time specified on the product label.

4. Wash the pillow pet.

   Place the pillow pet in the washing machine along with a mild detergent. Use warm water and a gentle cycle. Avoid using bleach or fabric softener, as these can damage the pillow pet.

   Once the pillow pet is dry, fluff it up by hand. This will help to restore its shape and make it look new again.
