Well it took a year - but I finally finished the cat bed.
It was crocheted and made with a chunky chenille yarn - which was a pain to work with which is why I kept picking it up and then putting it down. The strain on my hands was rough!
It probably was a two day project and towards the end I figured out the nature of the beast.
First photo is completed bed.... Second photo shows it being used as a cat trap with Raz in it.
We've also caught Heath in it.... so far no signs of Rainey using it.... but who knows what she does at 5 am?
It fits on the afghan at the end of the couch to protect it from the wear and tear of cats cuddling.... This stuff should hold up just fine. And the snuggle factor is high.
Looks like kitty may have grown a little bit since you started the project.
Raz is a refrigerator of a cat... ie if he were human he'd be a linebacker. (I've a suspicion he's a Siberian cat and they're built on a blocky frame with a double coat).
He actually does fit in the bed - he was stretching. He's snuggled next to me on Movie nights and all of him does fit in it.
He is my largest cat by poundage about 15 lbs.. By height and length it would be Heath. lol
I actually measured other pet beds to make sure there'd be enough room.
(I do the same for human heads when I make hats! lol).
@RavenCT pet beds should be a snug fit to help retain warmth.
I just couldn't help myself from commenting when I saw your picture.
@moosepucky I can't blame you - we comment on his 'badonkadonk' all the time. It's a good thing he's the sweet natured one because if he ever took a poke at the other two he'd knock them into next week.
What's really amazing is he's an excellent mouser. I was really shocked by that. We sometimes get one or two coming in through the bulk head in the deep winter - and boy - I did not know a cat that big could move like that.
