That's why your cat claims the laptop, the radiator and the one sunbeam.

A roofed den with one entrance gives a cat controlled sightlines and a protected back — the same security an anxious cat looks for behind your couch, but warmer and washable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCats sleep 12–16 hours a day\u003c\/strong\u003e — more for kittens and seniors — so the quality of the sleeping spot matters more to your cat's day than almost any other purchase you'll make.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoft-surface preference is real.\u003c\/strong\u003e Given options, most cats choose the softest available surface with scientific reliability.
