Warm Enclosed Cave Bed for Cats and Dogs

You find her under the bed again, or wedged behind the sofa, anywhere with a ceiling and one way in. An open basket never gets used. Cats and small dogs settle faster somewhere they can't be seen from above.

This warm enclosed cave bed is a covered tunnel with a plush lining and a cushioned floor, so they're out of the draft and out of sight without being shut in.

How it is made:

• Plush lining throughout: soft on every inner surface, so the whole space holds the warmth a curled-up pet gives off
• Sponge base cushion: a firm supportive floor rather than a thin pad that flattens under weight
• Removable cover: the shell lifts off the base, so both parts wash separately
• Open arch: a wide entrance they can see out of, which is what stops a covered bed feeling like a trap
• Four sizes: 18.1 in (46 cm) long for a kitten up to 35.4 in (90 cm) for a medium dog

Washing it is simple. Take the cover off the base cushion and wash them separately, then let both dry flat before putting them back together.

Press the base and it pushes back. That's the sponge cushion doing its job, holding a floor under him instead of going flat after a week.

Two colors. Olive green or gray, both with a cream plush lining. They sit next to furniture rather than shouting across the room.

Getting the size right

Take the length of your pet curled up and go one size larger if they sleep stretched out.

Measure her curled up before you pick a size, and the spot under the bed loses its appeal to one with a plush floor and a roof.
