Cats like to sleep in small spaces. Their instincts tell them that they are vulnerable to prey when sleeping, and they look for protected dens for sleeping. The search for small spaces can get cats in trouble, and an indoor cat tent is an easy solution to protect them. Plus, they are totally cute.
Determining the Correct Size
There are a few things to consider when determining the correct size tent for your cat. In addition, to being able to fit inside, turn around and rest comfortably, you should make sure the front opening can fit them as well. If the bottom of the tent has a hammock base, check the weight recommendation.
Use the measurements with the review to determine how much space you will need to place.
Care and Cleaning Tips
You can purchase a fully washable tent or one that needs to be spot clean. You know your cat best. If you have indoor cats that is a mellow shedder, the spot clean option may work for your home. If your cat is like mine and tracks in dirt and tends to cause a raucous, go with the full-on washable one.
