Second one I've bought so each cat has their own. That should tell you how it's going.

Why It Works
The bed she picks over the cardboard box.
Felt walls she can tuck against, an open top she can watch the room from.
01
Tucked in on every side, top still open
The felt wall runs right around at 21 cm high with no roof over it, so she gets the closed-in feeling of a box and a clear view of the room.
02
No caving in when she lands in it
The walls are thickened felt panels slotted into one another rather than soft wool, so the tub holds its shape instead of folding flat under a cat.
03
Claws go here instead of the sofa arm
The felt is a wear- and scratch-resistant grade, so the spot she sleeps in is the same spot she sharpens on.

Setting Up
It slots together by hand
-
Push the tabs through the slots
Each felt panel carries a tab that pushes through a slot in the next one — mortise and tenon, done by hand.
-
The darker felt base is the sleeping surface
The darker felt pad sits flat in the bottom of the tub and becomes the sleeping surface.
-
Put it where she already sits
Set it in the spot she has already claimed rather than a new corner, and she finds it on her own.
No nails, no glue, no tools.

FAQ
Have questions? We have answers.
Quick answers about this product, shipping and returns — everything worth knowing before it ships.
Get it nowWill my cat actually use it, or ignore it like the last one?
Cats tend to settle where they can tuck against something solid and still watch the room, which is what a 21 cm felt wall with an open top gives them. Put it in the spot she already sleeps in rather than somewhere new.
Is 37 cm big enough for a large cat?
It measures 37 cm (14.6 in) across with 21 cm walls and is rated for cats up to 7.5 kg, which is 16.5 lb. A full-grown large breed such as a Maine Coon will usually be over that.
Will the walls fold flat when she jumps in?
The walls are thickened felt panels slotted into one another, not soft wool draped into a cave shape. The felt is stiff enough to hold the tub upright on its own.
How much assembly is it — does it need tools or glue?
It slots together by hand using mortise-and-tenon tabs, so there are no nails, no glue and no tools involved. The panels press into one another straight out of the box.
How do I clean it if she has a hairball in there?
Wipe the felt with a damp cloth and let it air dry — treat it as a spot-clean bed rather than a machine-wash one. Drying it fully before she uses it again keeps the felt holding its shape.
Does felt hold up to claws, or will it shred?
The felt is a thickened, wear- and scratch-resistant grade, which is why the tub doubles as a claw-sharpening surface. It is not cardboard, so it does not leave flakes across the floor.
