Introducing Our Handmade Felt Wool Cat Beds

Cats don’t nap. They commit to it. So give them a bed that says, “Yes, I take my sleep seriously.”

Introducing the snuggliest, cosiest, most tail-twitchingly irresistible Cat Beds, Caves and Pods, lovingly handmade from 100% New Zealand Merino wool, and recently featured as the Editor’s Pick in Modern Cat Magazine.

(Yes, THE Modern Cat Magazine. We nearly fell off our scratching post too.)

Whether your cat prefers to curl, sprawl, loaf, or tunnel, our new Felt Ball Beds are a nap-lovers dream. Designed for kitties who demand comfort and class, this bed is where cat naps become a lifestyle.

 

What Makes These Beds So Special?

Our Felt Ball Beds are far from your average cat snooze spot.

They're crafted with intention, care, and a whole lot of heart.

 

Made from 100% NZ Merino Wool

Soft, breathable, and naturally luxurious, NZ Merino wool is a feline-approved fibre that’s both practical and beautiful. Unlike synthetic alternatives, wool is:

  • Thermoregulating – keeping your cat warm in winter and cool in summer.

  • Moisture-wicking – goodbye damp beds, hello dry snuggles.

  • Naturally odour-resistant – less stink, more snuggle.

  • Durable & resilient – bounces back after every curl, sprawl, or zoomie-induced dive.

But that’s not all. Our wool is Oeko-TEX® Certified, which means it’s been tested for harmful substances and is purr-fectly safe for your fur baby (and the hoomans who love them).

 

Handmade with Love by Women Artisans in Nepal

Each bed is handmade in Nepal by skilled women artisans, using traditional techniques passed down through generations. When you choose a Pryde Pets Felt Ball Bed, you're not just getting a product, you’re supporting women artisans, providing fair wages, and helping create lasting economic opportunities in Nepalese communities.

That’s why we proudly bear the Fair Trade Certification, because these products are making a difference, one felt ball at a time.

 

Unique, One-of-a-Kind Design

No two beds are ever exactly the same. Each one is a paw-sonalised piece of comfort, with slight variations in shape and pattern that make it truly unique, just like your cat.

At 40cm in diameter, 10cm tall, and weighing just 1kg, it’s compact enough to fit anywhere in your home, yet roomy enough for most cats to fully lounge, loaf, or curl up like a cinnamon bun.

 

Why Do Cats Love Felt Beds So Much?

We asked ourselves the same thing, and then we did a little digging (just like your cat does in the laundry basket).

Turns out, there’s real science behind why cats are drawn to enclosed, wool-lined spaces:

 

Comfort Meets Instinct

Cats have a natural instinct to seek small, enclosed spaces. It makes them feel safe, protected, and less exposed to perceived threats. A cosy, close-fitting bed provides that ideal balance of comfort and security, essentially giving your cat permission to completely let their guard down and purr their heart out.

 

The Texture Factor

Wool’s soft texture is not only physically comforting, it’s psychologically soothing.

Some cats even knead or “make biscuits” on wool materials, mimicking the comforting behaviours they displayed as kittens.

And because wool carries a natural scent (one cats tend to love), it helps them feel at home almost instantly.

 

All-Season Snuggles

Wool is incredibly breathable, meaning it stays comfy year-round. Unlike beds that overheat in summer or trap dampness in winter, our Felt Ball Beds help regulate your cat’s body temperature through all seasons.

It’s a nap zone that’s as smart as it is stylish.

 

Style That Suits You, Too

Let’s be honest: some cat beds are, well... a bit of an eyesore. Bulky, polyester monstrosities that clash with everything you own and get hidden behind the couch the moment guests come over.

But not these.

Our Felt Ball Beds are designed to balance sustainability, quality, and aesthetics, so they look just as good in your home as they feel under your kitty’s paws.

Minimal, organic, modern, whatever your interior style, this bed blends right in while still making a statement.

(A soft, snuggly, nap-worthy statement.)

 

Not Just Beds… But a Whole Mood

You might think this is just a cat bed, but your cat knows better.

They know it is a

  • A loaf lounge.

  • A biscuit-baking bakery.

  • A zoomie recovery zone.

  • A you’ll-find-me-here-until-further-notice kinda nap nest.

And when you see your cat curl up, stretch out, or softly snore inside their new wooly cocoon? You’ll feel it too.

That satisfying little sigh of, “Yes. This was worth it.”

 

And About Those Toys…

We're not saying our felt wool toys cause zoomie outbreaks, but let’s just say... your hallway may soon become a midnight Formula One track.

Crafted from the same natural NZ Merino wool, these toys are soft, safe, and satisfying to chase, chew, and bat under the fridge for no reason at all.

Because sleepy kitties are cute, but a surprise ninja attack on a felt mouse? That’s entertainment.

 

Cosy with a Conscience

At Pryde Pets, we don’t just design products, we create purposeful pieces that support both pets and people.

Every Felt Ball Bed you purchase:

  • Supports women artisans in Nepal

  • Champions Fair Trade principles

  • Uses only premium, natural, and sustainable materials

  • Delivers long-lasting comfort for your cat

  • Looks damn good in your living room

We believe in nurturing their nature, and that means creating products that cater to your cat’s instinctual needs, while aligning with your values as a conscious pet parent.

 

It’s Purr-sonal

So, whether your kitty is a tunnel-digger, a sunbeam-stretcher, or a loaf-with-legs, there’s a Felt Ball Bed with their name (and fur) on it.

This is more than a nap spot.

It’s a statement of love, a piece of art, and a hug from the inside out.

P.S. Every purchase helps support real women doing incredible things. It’s cosy with a conscience—and it might just be the best thing you’ve ever bought for your cat.

(Other than that time you opened a fresh can of tuna. Obviously.)
