    I’ve used my dogs beds. One of them is an “orthopedic” bed that’s a decent thickness of foam and I think it’s a pretty decent alternative. I generally don’t use any mats, but I once considered buying a memory foam topper off of Overstock.com. Looking very briefly you can get a 4-inch twin foam topper for $44. Of course you would need to cut it in some way to either fit around the pole or be two separate pieces or something. Just a thought–maybe it will spark a better idea.

    I use the interlocking foam mats. My husband cut a circle in the middle of one of them so it goes around the pole. You could double up on them if you wanted more cushion but I find one layor works ok. can be found at many different stores
