Welcome to Hasty Tortoise Crochet, where my yarn obsession meets my love for pets! Follow this pattern to make a small bed for a young or petite cat, up to 8 lbs. You can make the Bowl Variation for cats who love to curl up, or the Flat Variation for cats who like to sprawl out (or one of each, as this pattern includes both variations!)

There’s something about this bed that cats adore! I can barely set a finished bed down before there’s a cat in it (although, maybe that says more about the number of cats in my house than about the beds themselves.) But, I assure you that these beds are biscuit tested and approved by many finicky felines! I’ve even made quite a few of these beds for the local cat cafe.

ABOUT THIS PATTERN
Cats and yarn go so well together! Follow this pattern to make your furry feline friend a cozier place to nap than in your basket of clean laundry. These cushy cat beds are biscuit-tested and approved! For crescent, ball, or loaf-sleepers, try the Bowl Variation. For belly-up, side, or sprawl-sleepers, try the Flat Variation.

This pattern includes two shape variations (Bowl & Flat), tips and a stitch guide, and a detailed easy pattern with photos.
