dropped it off early so she is sleeping in it now.

(112,949 posts)She hasn't slept on it once. (I do have an egg crate foam pad on the floor covered with a sheet and a big stuffed dog that she will sleep on--, but I missed snuggling with her, so you can probably guess what happened next*
*Yup, I bought a folding three-section cushion for the floor from Amazon and covered it in a nice set of bamboo sheets. With my feather comforter in the duvet, it is not that bad, really, and with a couple of good pillows under my head and knees, I've managed to learn to sleep on my back, sans my too-soft and too-high mattress... She sleeps just beside me. What we do for our beloved furry babes.

(38,697 posts)I've bought expensive toys, state-of-the-art this and that, and they always go to crumpled up pieces of foil and boxes. One Christmas, I bought one of those cat drinking fountains with filters and all the doo-dads but my 18-pound behemoth, Otis, was terrified of it. He avoided it like the plague so when I caught him trying to drink out of the toilet, I gave the fountain away to a friend and went back to bowls.
Cats.

(4,067 posts)Most fun we ever had with the fur babies, a few years ago, we duct taped tons of various sized boxes together and made a sort of kitty castle. Cut little windows in it, tunnels, you name it. They had great fun and even left the tree alone that year! After a few weeks they lost interest and the boxes slowly made their way to the recycle bin.
My cats also do not like the cat fountains, weve tried 3 different types, too. Their fav water bowl is a big old coffee cup of mine that is shallow and deep. We have water bowls in 3 different rooms and they seem happy with that arrangement.

(6,346 posts)loves to lie in her stress-relieving shag donut, which fits perfectly
into a turret on her cat tree...as it happens, we have two small cat
trees together each with a turret almost the same distance from
the floor.
The other day I saw Molly (Mrs JAP's cat) try to fit herself
in the donut with Addy so we just ordered her, her very
own stress-relieving shag donut in a contrasting color.
