How it works

Stand an oval felt tube on its end and you get two rooms.

A round door at the front and a second in the left-hand side, both low in the wall: two ways into the cave, and felt walls everywhere else.

It arrives flat, 37 by 31 by 8 cm, and the panels peg together along the rims, no tools; the white pegs are the fixings, not decoration.
Size guide
About 830 gOne cat, up to 10 kg
58 x 33 x 30 cm
Measure her curled up, nose to tail base. Under about 40 cm she fits the open top; the house is rated to 10 kg.
Two cats: one up, one down works when they are friends. In a multi-cat house the rule is one hiding place per cat plus one, and this counts as one, not two.
Kittens: the cave is a good first hideaway because it is low and dark; the open top is a climb. Check the pegs are seated, because a kitten chews anything that sticks out.

How to

Felt smells of the bag it shipped in for ten minutes. Peg it together in the room she will use it in and let her supervise.

Beside the sofa, in the corner she retreats to, near where she sleeps now. Not the laundry.

Do not put a blanket over the top; the open well is half the point. A treat in the cave, her blanket in the top, and two weeks before you judge it.

A wand or a feather attachment past a door from outside; the ambush from inside is the game the doors were cut for.

Once a week, reach in through the open top. Hair and felt fluff collect in the cave.
Vet noteDr Duncan Houston, emergency veterinarian
Felt sheds a little at first, and a cat who eats the fluff or chews the pegs should have it taken away and the habit mentioned to your vet. Check the pegs are seated after assembly and after every clean. A cat who starts hiding more than she used to, stops coming out for food, or stops using a spot she loved is telling you something is wrong: hiding is how cats show pain and illness, and it is a vet visit before it is a new bed. In a multi-cat house, one hiding place per cat plus one, or the shy cat never gets to use it. Keep it out of the sun in summer; felt holds heat. If you are unsure about any of this, ask your vet.

The name is a joke; the idea is not.

My rescue cat has found her happy place in this tunnel hideaway. The enclosed spaces provide exactly the security she needed.
The double deck design is genius for our two cats they can lounge separately yet stay connected. Construction quality is phenomenal.
FAQ
It is one oval felt tube stood on its end, open at the top, with a round door at the front and a second in the left-hand side. The top is a well a cat sits in; the bottom is the cave she reaches through the doors. A felt floor divides them, so she gets a lookout above and a hide below in one footprint.
Assembled it is 58 cm long, 33 cm deep and 30 cm high, and it is rated to 10 kg. Measure your cat curled up, nose to tail base: under about 40 cm she fits the open top. The doors are the limit for the cave; a large Ragdoll or a Maine Coon will use the top and may not bother with the doors.
It arrives flat and pegs together along the rims, no tools. The white pegs are the fixings. Build it in the room she will use it in, check the pegs are seated when you finish, and again after each clean.
Vacuum it or run a lint roller over it; the open top means you can reach the whole inside. A damp cloth for marks. Do not put felt through the washing machine, it loses its shape. It sheds a little fluff in the first weeks, which is normal.
Better than most, because there are two places to be and one of them is above the other, which cats like. But a cave is one cat's territory, and the rule in a multi-cat house is one hiding place per cat plus one, so a two-cat home wants three spots; this counts as one.
No, and please do not buy it for that. A cat who suddenly hides more, stops coming out to eat or stops using a favourite spot is showing you pain or illness, and that is a vet visit first. A hiding place is for a healthy cat's normal need to be out of sight sometimes, not a treatment for a cat who has changed.
Email hello@purrz.com within 7 days of delivery with a photo and your order number; faulty, damaged or incorrect items are covered and we pay the return shipping when the error is ours. A cat ignoring it in week one is normal: the right spot, a treat in the cave, and two weeks.
