That is too clever!!
ReplyDeleteI am going to make this for ourcat, thanks!
ReplyDeletegood idea! to make it easier to wash, you could assemble the two baskets with some press buttons (patent /snap fasteners/poppers).
ReplyDeletekind regards!
Parabéns caro Tuga!
ReplyDeleteMuito bem feito!
I'll bet your kitties prefer it cozy!
ReplyDeleteLove it!!! What a fab idea.
ReplyDeleteThat is one cute cat pic!
ReplyDeletegoing to IKEA first thing in the morning, my kittens will LOVE this!!!
ReplyDeleteMines will love this too! I tought I would need to make two, because I would be to small for two cats. But I see that yours fit in LOL..
ReplyDeleteNaaaw! This must be he sweetest ever. You've got some lovely snuggle cats in there!
ReplyDeleteI say that's PURRfect!
ReplyDeletethis is entirely brilliant! I will do this for my bunnies :) THANK YOU for the amazing idea!!!!
ReplyDeleteI have 2 of those because my cats love them so much, but I'd never thought of making a kitty cave with them. I think I'll go and buy a few more ~ I have 4 kitties of my own and foster many others throughout the year. I think the pregnant moms especially will really love this!
ReplyDeleteMy god, you did a blind stitch! I would have just whip stitched it, but your stitch looks pretty cool. Way to go!
ReplyDeleteLove the two kitties together. Wish mine would do that. My male will kick the female out of where ever she is...just for the heck of it.
just as promised, went to IKEA and made this. the cats love it! http://yfrog.com/nu6qhmvj
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet idea that is...when I first looked at the picture I thought I was looking at my cats,Lucy and Casey...must be part of their family.....going to try your briliant idea..thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteAdorei.
ReplyDeleteÉ pena já não venderem desses cestos em Lisboa...
Os meus gatos iam adorar tal como eu.

I can't find these baskets at IKEA anymore. What department are they located in?
ReplyDeleteI found them in the children department, they're intended for storing toys!
ReplyDeleteI had a thing that was in the kids department made to hang on wall and store toys, bottom zippered open for some reason. Anyway quickly learned kittens loved it, so much that when they could no longer fit in they lounged on it. I haven't found one since. It looks like a flattish igloo and came in several colors.Love this idea.
