Clearly staged by luring the cat in with bubble wrap. Just the MSM manufacturing consent for cats to leave their natural, detached, cardboard homes and settle for these soulless, government-controlled, socialist Khrushchevkas.
The cat uses the bubble wrap. The other thing just happens to be there. And they call themselves journalists?
My cat uses her cat bed, but only if I put a worn T-Shirt in it. It has to smell like me.
Otherwise she'll snuggle up in bed with me instead.
(I haven't put a worn T-Shirt in her cat bed in years. )
if you are buying stuff for your cat that isn't cardboard boxes, ping pong balls, crumpled paper and laser pointers, you are not doing it correctly.
scratch posts are a grey area.
Big hit with my feline friends, extremely inexpensive
Mine loves those too, I once bought extra because they obvious get lost somewhere, and a woman that was looking for cat toys saw it and said that yes they love those, so it does seem to be a hit.
Amazon branded cat trap
Well, the cat clearly only has one brain cell, and thought if a container had bubble wrap, it must be a box.
The last cat I had, as a teenager, we were given her little bed hut when we received her. We had an information booklet about the cat and it feature a picture of her in the bed-hut (looks like pic above) but with her three kittens. Unfortunately she stopped using it after a while and i think my parents couldn't figure iut how to clean it effectively anyway, so the bed went away. Could chalk this up to it seeming "too big" without her children in [ ;( ] but I'm pretty sure it just wasn't that comfy for her/bored of it.
Further lore: The cat (lets call her toots for anonymity) came from a house with a lot of other pets, so maybe moving out of the hut was more a celebration of having more space to herself. She loved to climb everywhere and sleep everywhere, even preferring the hard floor to her (eventually) very hairy bed
>very hairy bed
You?
Her hut, it got really hairy with the fur she would shed but it was too big to put in a washing machine. If we got her nowadays i would give a crack at cleaning it myself, but nobody could be bothered then.
'Toots' did sleep on my bed a lot eventually. I was actually scared of her at first, though, because "toots" was a fighting cat.
I guess the meme would work better if it wasn't a cat hideaway sort of thing or cat tree or whatever. Cats often use the shit out of those. On the other hand, if it's just a cat bed....
