My cat Miss Prudence (great name right?) is getting pretty old now so I thought it would only be fair to make her a little bed of her own where our other, much younger, cat will stay out of her way. The bed that I've made her only involves 2 things: A blanket and a deep cube/square wicker basket! This is so easy to make and VERY affordable so lets get cracking!
Step 1: Find a spot where your cat likes to sit. Cats tend to like high up places because they can see everything that's going on around them. Make sure they will still be able to get to the spot when the bed is on it.
Step 2: Place the basket on its longest side with the opening facing outwards. I find that its good to have the back of the basket against a wall so my cat knows that nothing is sneaking up behind her.
Step 3: Fold the blanket up until it fits snuggly at the bottom of the basket. Make sure that its not going to fall off of the surface its on.
Step 4: Introduce your cat to their bed and get them used to going in it by adding a few treats in every now and then. Eventually they will just go in on their own, especially if it smells like them.
So thats my quick and easy DIY cat bed, leave me feedback on this post in the comments and if I should do more DIY's!
Bye for now! :)
