What is a donut cat bed?
This type of cat bed is named for its shape: it's a donut shaped cat bed! If you want a calmer, more contented kitty and a better night's sleep yourself, a donut cat bed can help.
The internal hollow is soft but supportive, ensuring a good night's sleep for all cats and a comfier experience for furry felines with stiff joints. The raised rim keeps out draughts and provides a snug area that you cat will soon warm up with the heat of its body. It helps your cat to feel safe and secure in their own protected little place, and provides support for their back (or their head, if they're a cat who likes a pillow!).
Cats love to curl up to sleep, so they fit perfectly into the middle of their cosy donut. For an even warmer and more luxurious experience for your cat, choose a fluffy donut cat bed, which is bound to get them purring!
Choosing the right donut cat bed
Here are a few things to consider when choosing the right donut bed for your cat:
Features
Most donut cat beds have removable covers, but not all are machine washable, so check before you buy. Some also have an anti-slip bottom to ensure they stay in place on smooth, slippery floors.
Size
Check the actual measurements! You want your cat to feel snug and some donut cat beds are listed as suitable for dogs and cats, so don't presume 'extra-large' will be right for your large tom cat - it might be made for extra-large dogs!
Colour
Your cat may not have an opinion on a pink donut cat bed, but you probably do! Think about where your donut cat bed will go and pick a colour that complements your décor!
Green credentials
No, we're not talking about the colour again here, but whether the materials and/or production are eco-friendly.

Answered: Your questions about donut cat beds
Here are some FAQs about donut cat beds:
How do I wash my cat's donut bed?
Always check the instructions for how to wash it. While many donut cat beds have a removable cover, some aren't suitable for machine washing. Other donut cat beds should just be wiped clean.
How can I help my cat get used to their new donut bed?
- Put in in a place where they already love to snuggle up or where their existing cat bed is.
- Catch their interest with catnip! This will encourage them to roll around in and sniff their new bed, getting used to the feel and marking it with their scent.
- Train them with treats! Hold a treat in or over the cat bed. They don't get it until they're all the way in! Once they are, make a fuss of them.
