The chair is constructed with a [sturdy metal frame](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poodle-armchair) that weighs in at 25-pounds and is rated to support up to 50-pounds of weight to ensure it's as structured and strong as required. The chair can be easily shifted around a living space thanks to a set of wheels in the base to support being used in an [office, living room or bedroom](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vision-chair). The [slide-out ramp](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dog-hut-bed) makes it easy for pets to climb, while the furniture-like design takes the stress off the pet's body. The 'SeatMate' pet chair comes in several color options to choose from to suit existing decor.
