This page holds our whole range of cat beds and bedding: round plush and faux fur donut beds, deep-sided nests, mushroom and cave beds, tents, woven and rattan baskets, window hammocks with suction cups, wooden hammock cots, cat sofas and corrugated cardboard scratcher beds. It is for owners looking for a warm spot their cat will actually use, from kittens to large cats.
Open beds, donuts and nests
Round plush beds and donut beds with raised rims are the most popular style, and for good reason. Many cats like to curl up with their back pressed against a soft edge, and a raised rim gives them that. Faux fur and corduroy versions with non-slip bases stay in place on hard floors.
Deep-sided nests go a step further, letting a cat sink right down. They suit cats who sleep tightly curled and those who feel the cold, such as short-haired and older cats. A 20 to 24 inch round bed fits most adult cats.
Caves, tents and covered beds
Some cats prefer to hide while they sleep. Cave beds shaped like mushrooms, apples or igloos, enclosed snack-box beds and fold-down tents give a shy cat a den where it can watch the room unseen. They are good in busy homes, homes with dogs or children, and for new cats still settling in.
If you are not sure which type your cat prefers, notice where it naps now. A cat that sleeps under the bed or in a closet will probably like a cave; a cat sprawled on the sofa arm wants an open bed or a raised perch.
Hammocks, window perches and raised beds
Cats like height and a view. Window hammocks with suction cups put a bed where the sun comes in, and wooden hammock cots and woven elevated beds lift a cat off cold floors and drafts. Check the weight rating and attach suction cups only to clean, smooth glass.
Handwoven baskets and egg-chair style beds bring a natural look to a room and are popular with cats who like to sit upright and survey their territory. A raised bed is also cooler in summer, because air moves underneath it.
Beds that double as furniture or scratchers
Corrugated cardboard and sisal scratcher beds give a cat somewhere to scratch and nap in one place, which many cats love because they stretch and scratch on waking. Expect to replace a cardboard scratcher bed as it wears down.
Cat sofas, a nightstand with a built-in cat house and pet couches with storage blend into a living room. They suit owners who want a bed that does not look like pet gear and cats who like to sleep near their people.
Choosing a size and material
Measure your cat curled up and stretched out. A curled-up sleeper needs less space than a sprawler, and large cats need a bed several inches wider than their stretched length. Beds listed for cats and small dogs are usually a safe choice for big cats.
Choose a removable, machine-washable cover if you can, since cat beds collect hair and dander quickly. Wash beds every week or two, and more often if your cat has fleas or is shedding heavily. Plush and faux fur are warmest; woven rattan and cooling mats suit hot climates.
Getting your cat to use a new bed
Cats choose their own beds, so help yours along. Put the new bed where your cat already naps, in a quiet, warm spot, and add a blanket or a worn T-shirt that smells familiar. A sprinkle of catnip works for cats who respond to it.
Give it a week before deciding it has failed. Many cats ignore a new bed for days and then claim it. If your cat stops using any bed and sleeps in unusual places, or seems stiff or sore getting in and out, mention it to your vet.
What kind of bed do cats like best?
It depends on the cat. Many like round donut beds with raised sides, shy cats prefer covered cave beds, and cats who love a view use window hammocks and raised beds.
What size bed does a large cat need?
Choose a bed several inches wider than your cat's stretched-out length. Many beds sold for cats and small dogs fit large breeds well.
How often should I wash my cat's bed?
Every one to two weeks is a good routine, and more often if your cat is shedding heavily or has had fleas. A removable, machine-washable cover makes this much easier.
Why won't my cat sleep in its new bed?
Cats often need time. Place the bed where your cat already naps, add something that smells familiar, and give it about a week before trying a different style.
What bed is best for an older cat?
Deep plush nests, faux fur beds and raised beds that keep cats off cold floors all help a senior cat stay warm. Put the bed in a draft-free spot near where your cat already naps.
