Catmega: my review of the catmega.com store
Meet Cynthia, my very lazy, sleep-all-day cat. She only leaves her cat bed to eat and for cuddles, and occasionally to run around my apartment like a crazy animal in the middle of the night.
Before I got Cynthia her current cat bed, Her favorite place to sleep was in an Amazon box from an order I place in 2018. During the pandemic, I decided to improve the style of my apartment. Before, it was very utilitarian and minimalistic. Everything had a function, but nothing was stylish.
On my first attempt to upgrade Cynthia’s bed, I got her one of those modern elevated beds from Chewy, very chic. But Cynthia wanted nothing to do with that bed! I tried for a month to get her to sleep there. And nothing.
Then, my friend Cole told me that instead of Chewy, he was using CatMEGA, to get all his cat stuff. CatMEGA is an amazing small company, and guess what? All of their products are cat-approved.
When I saw CatMega’s Banana Cat Bed, I literally LOLed. I loved that it’s a bed with a humorous style. Something about it just made me say, YES, this cat bed is for Cynthia.
Before I bought it, I emailed with CatMega. They assured me that cats really love this bed. In fact, Amber, the person I was emailing with even said that she had the Banana Cat Bed in Pink, and her tabby, Zoe loved it. Amber advised that I get the Banana Cat Bed in size XL and that’s what I did.
This is what the bed looked like as soon as I took it out of the box.
The style is amazing. I am pretty sure that if Andy Warhol had a cat bed, this would be it. This cat bed is Warholesque for sure.
It also kind of reminds me of the Banana stand from arrested development, which I LOVE.
And guess what? Cynthia is obsessed. It took her about a week to get in the banana. How did I get her to sleep in her new banana bed? I appealed to her scent receptors. Did you know that cats have got twice as many scent receptors as people? I could tell she needed to bed to smell more like home to go in it. Cynthia’s used to my scent, so I integrated the bed with my home. I put some of my clothes in it. Also, some catnip which Cynthia loves.
Once she was in, she wasn’t coming out. Cynthia and I give the CatMEGA Cute Banana Bed for Cat a 10 out of 10, standing ovation, 5-star review. I can tell she loves the long shape of the bed, and she likes sleeping in different positions in there. She also loves when I close the flap of the banana and then she sticks her little head out to watch my every move.
What’s the best part? The smile I have every time I see her peaking out at me from inside the banana. I mean, how can you not be obsessed with that face!
