Cozy Haven Pet House & Bed

Our 6.8-pound black-and-white tuxedo cat likes soft corners but does not always settle in a fully covered bed, so I tried the Pink Cozy Haven Pet House & Bed in the S size. The 17.7-by-11.8-inch (45-by-30-cm) bed fits neatly in the entry nook without narrowing the path to the door. It has a dusty-pink plush exterior, a cream fleece-lined interior, padded sides and back, and a low curved front. She can see the room from the open basket, and the low edge makes it easy for her to step in. After I placed it near the bench where she already naps, she started curling up in it for short evening rests and often leaves one paw over the front. The pink fabric shows dark fur, so I shake it out between cleanups and keep the inside dry. The compact size, soft fleece, and easy entry make it a five-star rest spot for our small cat.

My 6-pound Bengal has always chosen the laundry basket over the beds I put out, so I tried the pink Cozy Haven in a quiet corner of the kitchen. I left her familiar towel nearby and gave her time to investigate; after a day she started climbing in for short naps. The low front makes it easy for her to step in and out, while the padded sides give her something to lean against without blocking her view of the room. The pink fabric shows dark fur quickly, but a lint roller handles the everyday mess and the cover can be removed for a deeper wash. It fits her curled-up shape well, though a cat that stretches out would need a larger size. A good choice for a small cat who likes soft walls but still wants to watch what’s happening.

Our 7-pound Yorkie mix likes curling up against the edge of a blanket, so we put the Pink S Cozy Haven in a quiet corner of the home office. The 17.7-by-11.8-inch size gives her room to curl up without much space to sprawl, and she started using it for short naps after a few days. The soft pink outer fabric, cream lining, padded sides, and low front opening make it easy for her to get in and out while still giving her something to lean against. I shake out the loose hair and spot clean it as needed. It is a great fit for a small curled-up dog, but a sprawler or a pet looking for a covered hideaway would need a different style.
