Create a Cozy Home For Your Cat With a Cat Bed

Cats are curious creatures that are drawn to small, tight spaces. Many times you will find them snuggled up in a dresser drawer or wedged between two pieces of furniture. Outside cats can often be found nestled between a building and some other object or burrowed into a crevice. They are also creatures of comfort, often seeking out bedding and other soft object to create a cozy den for themselves. Purchasing a cat bed for your feline friend will provide them a small, comfortable space to lounge and sleep in.

Cat beds come in all different shapes, sizes, colors and textures, which makes fitting them into your home easy and practical. While they come in a variety of forms, there are really only a couple of things to look for when purchasing a cat bed. First, make sure it is in proportion to the size of your cat. If you have a kitten, you will need a smaller bed to give them the feeling that they are in a small space. A larger one will want a larger bed they can fit comfortably in. Second, many are drawn to soft, plush objects, so make sure your bed has plenty of padding and is covered in an inviting fabric. Third, make sure the bed has sides rather than just a pad (bottom). This gives your pet the feeling they are in their own space.

Once you have selected the perfect bed, placement is also key. If your cat is the private sort who likes to be off away from all the action, placing their bed in an unoccupied bedroom would be ideal. If your pet likes to be in the center of attention, placing the bed in a common area such as a living room or den is more ideal. Many also like to be warm. Placing their bed in front of a sunny window or under a heat register will make their bed more inviting for them.

Cats are fun animals and make wonderful pets. Providing them with their own cat bed will give them their own space and make them feel secure in their loving home.
