It's no secret that cats love a good cardboard box, PetMD confirms, and boxes make great DIY cat beds. This version allows you to add your own decorating flair!
What You'll Need
How to Make It
- Using the box cutter, create an opening on the wide side of the box. Be sure not to cut out the entire side of the box. Leave enough room around the edges so that the box remains stable.
- Decorate the box and lid with colorful, fun wrapping paper, just as you would a gift, which is exactly what you're creating for your buddy!
- Place the fleece on the bottom of the box, ensuring your cat has enough room to move around.
- Set the box on top of the lid, or put the lid on top to give your kitty more privacy.
You easily can switch out the paper to match your décor, even coordinating with a holiday celebration!
Tasty Tips
With simple DIY cat beds such as these, you provide your furry friend with a comfortable, safe, snuggly space she can call her own. All she needs is a comfy space to lay and a place where she can keep an eye on things.
