IKEA Donates Doll Beds For Shelter Cats, And It’s Just Too Adorable

ADVERTISEMENT

Until recently, kitties at the Etobicoke Humane Society in Ontario would sleep on the “cold, hard floor” – well, not anymore, cause IKEA has just donated 10 doll beds for the cats and made a $300 contribution towards the brighter future of the shelter pets. “Our floors are easy to clean but not terribly comfortable to lay on. Now cats like Catsby and Frankie have beds of their own to curl up in,” the humane society posted on Tuesday.

IKEA doesn’t sell pet furniture as such, but some people discovered that their Duktig Doll Beds are perfect size for their beloved fur balls. Oh, and the company recently posted a picture of the double decker version of their Duktig Doll Bed – with a cat lying on the top bed and a pug doggie resting on the bottom one.

Cats love beds and hammock's. I would get a 1" thick piece of soft foam and cut to fit each bed and glue in place. Then put a soft blanket on the foam.

Lol mine would want both. He thinks boxes are to play with and chew on, fluffy beds are for lounging! He also likes to mark boxes with his scent by pawing at them before and after he finishes a meal. It's so darn cute there's always one by one of his beds.

That's sad. Somebody does a good thing and your response is "Do more."

If they wanted to do a good deed they could have just donated lot's of warm and comfy blankets for the cats to sleep on. Donating beds and having them plug it in the media looks to me like a PR stunt to get cat owners into the store to by the doll bed for their cats.

What kind of heartless people use cuteness as a criteria to decide which animals to throw out?

I was going to say something cynical, then i saw the pictures. Those poor cats now have their very own beds. I'm happy for them.

this is great...I love to make stuff and making something like this would be a cinch. I'll have to get some measurements and see who needs cat beds in my area. I thank everyone that can give to the benefit of our furry friends...all is needed.

Seriously so many unappreciative people in these comments. I would have been over the moon to receive 10 beds and $300.00. Anything i recive no matter how small is very much appriciated. 😢😢
