"The Meowbile Home" Convertible Cat Bed & Cave
Not only do cat beds promote a restful night sleep, which is good for their health, they also signal safety and ownership. How? Cat beds are what the cat biz call a scent soaker. Never heard of it? We swear we’re not making it up. Scent soakers [beds, scratching posts, cat trees] are pretty important because they absorb your cat’s scent and provide a clear message for the entire house— ‘Hey! This baby is mine.’ The ability to claim something as their own is a sure fire way to calm your cat and have them strutting around like they own the place.
~*BOOM*~
Ok, so we’ve gotten to the part of the article where you’re convinced that a cat bed is important, right? PERFECT! So now what? We bestow upon you the three golden nuggets when it comes to cat bed buying; texture, shape, and location.
How to Choose a Cat Bed Your Cat will Actually Use
Texture—There are so many beds to choose from because every cat has different preferences. Some may want something soft and squishy like the "The Meowbile Home" Convertible Cat Bed & Cave (see above) , while others may want something more stiff and scratchy like the "The Accordion" Travel Cardboard Bed & Scratcher.
There’s even "The Cozy Hideaway" Cat Bed Shelf & Scratcher , which is the best of both texture worlds.
"The Accordion" Travel Cardboard Bed & Scratcher
"The Cozy Hideaway" Cat Bed Shelf & Scratcher
Shape—Yep, it matters. A round "Donut!" Cat Hideaway Cave bed can feel like a warm hug, while something more square shaped could mimic the vibe of their favorite "The Kitty Corner" Cat Bed & Cave. Some cats really dig a dark and cozy place to hide, especially in open common spaces.
No more running and hiding underneath the bed when you have something like the "The Floor Flower" Cat Bed & Cave. And let’s not forget, you may have a super trendy cat on your hands so they might want something like a "The Glamper" Grey Cat Yurt. We’re still waiting for this bad boy to come in our size.
And after all this work it still might seem you’ve done it all wrong. You could’ve picked the right texture, and shape, and location but your cat still seems disinterested. Don’t freak out. Don’t move the bed around every 5 minutes. Don’t replace the bed. Don’t second guess yourself. Give them some time to warm up to it all. Because the feeling of watching your little one curl up or stretch out on their very own bed is totally worth the wait.
We hope this article was helpful, and that you're well on your way to finding your kitty's dream bed! No matter how picky, we've got something to suit your cat's needs.
No really, scratching posts...
When it comes to scratchers there are three elements to consider; (1) sturdiness & stability (2) height (3) location.
(1) Sturdiness & Stability—Cats go to town while scratching. They put so much energy and power into the act you need to make sure the scratcher is up for the challenge. That could even mean nailing or suction cupping the bad boy onto the floor, the windows, or the walls. We love our "The Window Wall Post" Cat Scratcher and "The Window Wall Ball" Suction Cat Scratcher for this very reason. They’re super sturdy and latch onto your windows or sliding doors which is perfect if you’re lacking floor space.
(2) Height—Cats tend to reach upward and pull down against the posts, so it should be at least as tall as your cat’s monster stretch. We hear "The Classic Grey" Cat Scratcher is a crowd favorite, and "The Big Boy" Sisal & Felt Cat Tree Scratcher is the ultimate double threat because it not only serves as a scratcher, it’s also a perch. Just imagine them chilling on top, looking down at their kingdom. How glorious.
(3) Location—This could be the most important decision you make to ensure the success of the scratcher. Cats like to scratch in some of the most prominent areas of the home so everyone can see who is the b-o-s-s. Cat Culture Tip: Try placing it in front of that piece of furniture your cat loved to scratch, as the location is probably why they scratched in the first place. If you’re hesitant to put it so front and center, check out "The Cozy Hideaway" Cat Bed Shelf & Scratcher. It’s really so beautiful it can blend into almost any aesthetic.
Your biggest takeaway here is that we’ll never stop cats from scratching, but we can offer them some mighty fine alternatives to our favorite armchairs or that antique dining room table leg from Aunt Rita.
