I have been looking everywhere for something like this!! I work at a veterinarian hospital, and we have some pretty scared/sick kitties who could benefit from this. Also, shelter kitties would love this!!

[@romystumpy1197]

Yes I'd like to nake some for my daughters Foster kitties

[@elizabethallen2919]

My Emma likes to hide in dark places to nap..which is like 17 hours of the day! She may get this from Santa Claws this year! Thank you for sharing this!

[@arieslondon92]

Your kitty looks like my newest kitten koi she's a tuxedo and happens to have markings that look like a koi fish LOL so I named her koi plus I have a ginger kitten who's a boy obviously his name is Nikos and I have a 14-year-old cat named Momo short for Massimo I'm going to be very busy for a while I think they would all love these cat house beds LOL

[@lynnlauzon]

I thank you very very much for your generosity and excellent tutorial. I live in Québec Canada and our winters are quite cold. A few wild cats live outside and they sleep on chairs on my porch! Your cat bed is quite welcome! Merci encore! Lynn :)

[@christieallen2272]

lynnlauzon so how many of those cat beds have you made?

[@FOR3V3RRAY]

Christie Allen I’ve made 15 for a local cat adoption organization

[@lilianahorjea8183]

[@shereneliscom6736]

You can put plastic canvas inside it to hold it up, thats what im going to do, im making this for my bird. A crochet bird house, thank you for the wonderful video Crystal !!!

[@jadey_babe5264]

Thank you. I started last week and finished it tonight. I have a cat (not mine) and he's living under my stairs. So I'm going to set it up for him and hoping he uses it 😊😊😊

[@jaxg4887]

Hi Jade did your new little visitor use his cat bed?

[@MelindaRoseStayYou394]

I too wanna know if the kitty used it

[@jennyboles1097]

I am glad I read the comments before getting to far into this project. It seems a lot of people are having a problem having the cat bed stand up on it's own. I decided to go down in the hook size hoping that will help me so my bed stands upright. I first went to an 8 but that didnt seem to be good enough so now I'm using a size 6 hook and it's making a huge difference!!! Hope this helps someone out!! I will comment when I am totally done to let y'all know if it worked out or if I had to find another way. Cheers!

[@emmip4850]

Did it work?

[@marymoran1015]

Did it work??

[@user-dn9by6wd3c]

Are you using 4 strands of different yarns like Crystal did, or did you use a chunky/bulky yarn? I want to use the Cobblestone yarn that is a 6-weight yarn, but I don't know if it's equivalenr to her 4 strands of yarn. I'd like to know what those 4 yarns are equivalent to being used together.

[@anneburlingham9860]

So I made it and got some plastic needlepoint canvas. Sewed 3 sheets to the inside walls and 2 smaller strips on top and bottom of doorway. Came out great cats jumped right in🐈

[@tamiajackson]

I wish you had shown how to put the hanger in.. to make it stand up like that but thanks for the tutorial, will defintely be doing this 😊

[@tmaffeo]

I made this about two years ago for my bestie she loved it and so did kitty 🐱🌻🌻🌻

[@rysie7383]

I've just gotten back into crocheting, and I'm loving your channel! I'm going to be getting two guinea pigs next month, and I thought it would be nice to make them a little house like this. I'll follow along but adjust it by making fewer rows so that it's the right size for them. Thank you!

[@ashleyyoung9401]

Thank you to bag O'Day crochet I've learned so much from you and I save all your videos that I enjoy

[@kimjensen1359]

You are so easy to follow! I love how you teach!

[@527spirit]

I made it. It was really quick. My cat Opal had not left it very much. I have never seen a cat love something so much.

[@gauthiern1031]

How did you keep it up?

[@hmph542]

Really quick! Hah! It is a really time-consuming project, but I'm working on it. I will adopt a ginger cat! :)

[@samanthajxoxo]

This is so cool!! Well now I need to go get more yarn. My kitty would love this

[@yliberal6355]

I really like this little pet house, it's so nice n cozy looking!! My little Frenchie would absolutely luv this especially in the winter!!

[@birchbookstore]

Thank you for the tutorial. Very easy to understand.

Mine turned out perfectly!!!!! I can't wait to give it to my sister's cats for Christmas! Thank you so much!

[@reginapastula9010]

Can’t wait to try this so I can donate to the dog/cat rescue in our area!!! Thank you so much for sharing

[@lisamamabear3017]

Love the pattern thanks, just what I needed for my cat Moe... Can I just mention that if you want to put crocheted wire around the outside ( 2 circular, 1 for top and 1 for bottom, and 4 vertically, evenly spaced in the round) and crochet loops with buttons to the cat bed house, to hold it into place, it would stand easier and can be removed for washing. I found this ( google... Crochet over wire to achieve a surprising yet lovely result (video) ) helped.

[@jodiside1100]

Where do I find this video

[@oohletstrythat2576]

I am soon gonna make this for my babies! Thank you, your the best.

[@evelynsmith5489]

I was not able to get adequate support using wire hangers because my slightly overweight (LOL) cat likes to get on the top of the cat cave. My solution was to use a hack saw to cut off the top section of a tomato cage (cut above the second circular ring so you have a circular ring with three legs). I then weaved the legs down the sides of the cave and tacked the ring to the top of the cave. You can hide the exposed wire by crocheting or slip stitching around it. Madison really loves his cat cave and I really love that you shared this project with us. Many thanks.

[@sayahudecjackson]

I love it! This is the perfect gift for my girlfriend's cat :3 so easy and beautiful, thank you for sharing it with us ❤️

How freakin awesome!! I can't wait to make one for our kitty!! Good job as always.

finally finishing this cat bed for Stella. when i started, the yarn was so thick and hard on my arthritic hands. Had to give my thumb time to heal. I cannot wait to see how this turns out. I have 2 cats. maybe i should make it a double cat bed.

Wow! I love it!

Thank you for this tutorial. A tiny Guinea Pig just came into our family so I'm going to attempt a tiny version using 100% cotton yarn so he doesn't get cold in the air conditioning. 🦔

this is really great because i just finished the cat beanie tutorial as my first crochet project ever and this uses a similar technique. Project no. 2 perhaps???

[@bobnett39]

I was really hoping you would show us the part where you inserted the wire/coat hanger to make it stand up as I have no clue how to do that. I don't think I'm going to make this now as I really want it to stand upright. Would it be possible for you to show us? I have made lots of your other projects and you make the tutorials very easy to follow. Thank you xx. Oh wow I have just scrolled down to see if anyone had suggestions and you say your bed has no wire in it and stands up on its own!! So now I will have a go and hope for the best :) xxx

[@brandycewonderland1497]

That's why she said to use four yarns at once, she said that would make it sturdy enough to stand on its on. It looks like all four are worsted. I suggest Red Heart worsted bc it's pretty thick. I just made a few things with it and it seems kitty durable.

[@janicealbracht9146]

This thing is huge! It has enough room for 6 cats. After 6 rows it collapsed. I have several ideas for frame work to support it. Wish i had known the dimensions before i started it. Hope my cat likes it.

[@janicealbracht9146]

Forgot to thank you for the pattern. You are easy to follow.

[@jeckellhobbs5017]

Love the colors you used! Did u use any wire as you suggested or jus yarn for opening? I'm wanting to make this for my 3 cats. Thanks for all your hard work in these tutorials, I truly appreciate them. You've helped me soo much expand my learning and skill of crocheting. God has truly blessed you as a teacher and you have a kindred spirit. Keep strong Crystal!

Not sure how you got yours to stand but the one I made has no shape can you pleas explain how. I tried a wire hanger no luck so what do you suggest please!! I really want to finish this project!!

[@gauthiern1031]

Did you get it standing?

[@apcassidy1]

Do you have a written pattern I can print for this one?

[@brandycewonderland1497]

It looks like four worsted yarns crocheted together as one stand, making hers thick enough to stand up. I just made a few cat things with Red Heart worsted with a single and it is pretty thick, so I imagine four strands of it, I suggest the Red Heart worsted super saver skeins.

[@user-dn9by6wd3c]

How much total yarn will be required to make this? I'm going to be using Patons Cobble 6-weight yarn to make it, but I need to know if I will have enough. I bought 4 skeins of it. I don't want to buy more if it won't require more than that, because I won't be using this yarn for anything else. I bought it strictly to use to make a cat cave.

[@LindaConn]

An excellent tutorial on making the cat bed, but I was hoping for some help with the end result. My top does not stay up. Everything is flat. Do you have another tutorial to explain how to raise the roof on the cat bed?

[@CanadianRose]

Just came across this. Could cord be used to make this instead of yarn?
