FAQs

Start by choosing the right bed for your cat. Once you put it in an appropriate location, you can entice your cat by putting treats in the bed, or blocking of other places where your cat usually naps, e.g. closing the door to the room with the human bed, if your fur baby prefers a human bed.
While it isn’t a make or break point, some cats prefer to sleep in elevated places so they are able to see their surroundings. Window beds, or wall-mounted beds are an option, but make sure they are safely installed.
