Cat Bed Sizing Guide

Find the Right Size for Your Pussy.

 

Cats may be classified in 2 sizes – normal and huge

As most cats are normal size, their beds are generally around 40-50cm in diameter…the saying ‘one size fits all” has never been truer. Cats always curl up so they fit into smaller places than you think.

 

It is also a good practice to ensure that the bed has protection for them….they prefer to be in warm, secure places away from busy areas, perched above the ground and offering security from passing activity.

Cat Pods offer the perfect recluse. Baskets with walls are also appealing.

Save your furniture

I read some info a while ago as to why Paperboard Scratchers help to ‘save’ furniture.
Cat’s like to mark their territory and when they scratch furniture their claws secrete a scent which makes them return.
When cats smell the paperboard it has the scent of the trees  and reminds them of the outdoors,  as the paperboard is made from trees.  As you know, cats have an incredible sense of smell and they relate to the paperboard scratchers which gives them a sense of wellbeing when they are either scratching or sleeping on it.
The corrugated cardboard helps keep in the warmth in winter and is cooling in summer….so they really are an ‘enrichment’ functional piece of furniture for your cats well being.
They then return to the scratchers and leave your furniture alone.

Herringbone PODS are here

After many months the limited edition Herringbone PODS have arrived.

Every once in a while Jed makes some special PODS and we were lucky enough to get some of these just in time for Christmas.

The Pod offers the security of a mountaintop cave with way more style. It serves as your pet's own personal sanctuary - a perfect place for curling up to snooze, hide, or reign supreme.

Lucky to get these as they are sold out in the US....thanks Jed!

Get them while they last.

Hepper Herringbone PODS on their way

I have just placed an order for the Herringbone PODS. Every once in a while, Jed Crystal, the designer and owner of Hepper produces a limited run of these exquisite pieces.

Due to several requests, I decided to place an order when these next became available.

I expect that these will be here by the second week of November so I shall keep you all posted.

Hepper PODS are POPULAR!


Just wanted to let you know I have ordered another Hepper Pod.  

My cats are fighting over the one I purchased recently so its time for another one.  My big boy ragdoll fits in and loves it.  They are a well made product and worth every penny.

Looking forward to receiving the next one to stop the cat fights ;)

Cheers
