Cat Beds

Cats choose beds by warmth and security. Caves and hooded beds suit shy cats; donut beds suit cats that curl tightly; flat mats and raised hammocks suit cats that stretch out or overheat. Older cats often prefer warmth, from a self-warming layer or a heated pad.

For heated products, check the controls (preset, adjustable or timer), the cord protection and whether the pad is rated for indoor or sheltered outdoor use. Washable covers matter more than any fabric claim.

Before you buy

• Sleeping style. Curlers like donuts and caves; stretchers like flat mats and hammocks.
• Warmth. Self-warming mats need no power; heated pads give real warmth and need safe cord routing.
• Washability. A removable, machine-washable cover keeps a bed in use.
• Size. Measure your cat curled and stretched; too big loses the snug feel.
