Cats are simple creatures. They only require that you love them unconditionally (when they are ready for love), always give in to their (sometimes frivolous) demands and have a full bowl of kibble ready at any hour of the day.
In exchange, you’ll get a feline friend who is mostly indifferent to everything around them, has energy bursts and sleeps a lot. The last point is important, as cats can snooze for up to 16 hours daily. And naturally, the king of your urban jungle needs a comfortable bed, and the more elegant it is, the better.

Only the best for your fluffy friends
Pet owners naturally want to provide their furry friends with some comfortable furniture, but too often cat scratchers and loungers look ghastly. Most of the designs don’t seem to take into consideration that only a few people’s aesthetic is cardboard chic or sisal serene.
But cats don’t need to scratch and sleep in the same location. Having a scratcher is fine when it’s in a busy, high-traffic area, but for other quieter areas, felines feel most at home in a comfortable bed.
However, not just any bed will do. Apart from getting cat furniture that fits in with your decor, there are a few things to consider. If your cat prefers a space off the ground, consider an elevated bed that gives them a vantage point.
Also, take your cat’s weight into consideration. The thickness of a mattress might seem sufficient, but heavier cats will naturally need a bit more support and the frame should be able to handle it. Related to the mattress, consider the material that it’s made from, as some are better suited for colder months while others are more lightweight for summer.
