Review on 🐱 Premium Handmade 100% Natural Wool Cat Cave - Cozy Indoor Hideaway & Bed for Your Kitty by Mary Scott

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wow! It's only been a few hours but I'm *very* happy with this purchase!

My cat loves soft beds but she doesn't usually climb on boxes and other things and she's overweight so I wasn't sure she would go for the whole 'closed' thing , or whether the entrance would be too small for her. But I wanted her to have a place where she felt safe and protected from the air conditioner blowing directly onto the sofa. At first she sniffed it and left, but I sprinkled in some catnip and put some treats inside. lined up like breadcrumbs to form a trail. It took her 15 or 20 minutes to get interested again, but she crawled in for a treat and hasn't been out since. It's been a few hours now and it doesn't seem too hot even though it's summer and we're in the south. I've been going back and forth on what size to get because I don't have it. Lots of space but I'm glad I have the big one. Although I think another smaller cat could fit in, the smaller opening would probably be uncomfortable for my cat's size (15lbs). It has room for her to lie down as usual without having to curl up too tight. However, the cave is actually not as big as I feared. It's about the same size as the cat beds I had before my second cat died and fits both cats together. Also, since it's soft, you can slide it a bit on the sides to make it fit somewhere. Finally, it looks great with modern decor in my apartment. It doesn't look cheap, poorly made, or made in 1992 like a lot of other cat furniture. It's surprisingly thick and durable and I can see it's going to last a long time. My only complaint is that because the wool was wrapped in plastic for shipping, the wool had some dents that couldn't really flare out to form a proper round shape. But I think they can weaken over time. Overall, despite my initial reservations and the relatively high price compared to other options, I'm very happy I bought these and wish I had had them a long time ago!
