Day 9 of 12 Days of Giveaways is presented by The Cat Ball! The company creates fun and unique cat beds that your cat is sure to love. We received one of their Cat Ball Cat Cave Beds to try out. Read on to see what the cats thought!
The Cat Ball® was created for cats and is designed for people.
Your cat will figure it out®
Will Sophie Figure It Out?
Sophie: Am I using it right, Mama?
Mama: Try again.
Sophie: How about this?
Mama: Better.
Sophie: Okay, I think I’ve figured it out.
Mama: Congratulations. Third time’s a charm.
Who’s Up Next?
Mama: Wanna try it, Olive?
Olive: I’ll wait. It still smells like Sophie.
Olive: Hey! I was next.
Harley: Snooze it or lose it, Tortie.
Olive: I better try this out now.
Mama: It’s backwards.
Olive: I’ll do it how I want, Mama!
Harley: This is how you do it, Olive. Sheesh!
Good For Any Use
The Cat Ball Cat Cave Bed is good for night lounging, which Woodrow can attest to.
And grooming, which Sophie demonstrates.
And of course for holiday photos. Here’s Sophie from Thanksgiving in her festive bow tie that she stole from Eddie (our dog).
Out of all the cats, Sophie uses the bed the most. Its permanent place is next to our fireplace, which allows her the perfect view of the entire living room. When Sophie doesn’t feel like napping or lounging and happens to be doing her rounds through the living room, sometimes she’ll walk in the front opening of the Cat Ball and out the back – just because she can. It’s pretty cute (just like she is).
About The Cat Ball Cat Cave Bed
The Cat Ball Cat Cave Bed is the company’s original design. Its hexagonal shape is fun for cats to peek out of from the front or the back opening. The bed is created with six panels and is flexible and machine washable. The bed’s features are:
- Made in the USA
- All cotton fabrics
- Fits cats up to about 18 pounds
- The innovative hexagonal cat bed design holds its own shape: no wires!
The Cat Ball Cat Cave Bed that we received was priced at $55.00. However, prices vary by design and fabric choice. But good news, we have a 20% off discount code for readers (details below). Visit their online shop to see all of their design and fabric choices.
About The Cat Ball
The Cat Ball came about when founder Jennifer Boaro, a costume designer, was hired to design a soccer ball-shaped (human-sized) mascot costume for a professional athletic team. Jennifer went to work on a small-scale model and formed the spherical-shaped costume that had a small hole at the top for the mascot’s head and a bigger hole on the bottom for the legs.
Jennifer says, “I completed the project and the small prototype sat in my workshop for a year or two until it occurred to me that my new kittens might enjoy it. And I was right; they loved it!”
Thus, The Cat Ball was born! Jennifer creates these handmade beds and has expanded from the original Cat Ball® cat cave bed design to include the Cat Canoe® cat bed, the Jumbo Cat Canoe® and novelty variations like their shark Cat Ball® cat bed. Browse their online shop to see all of the unique designs.
Everyone knows that behind every great cat company founder is an awesome cat – or two. Jennifer’s models and product testers are Retro (left) and Tink (right). Both are cross-eyed lynx point cats. Jennifer says, “Tink is the cat you see in most of our photos, she’s really small, like 7.5 pounds, and she’s a reliable cat bed model. Retro is big, he weighs 15 pounds, and he hides under the bed when anyone comes over.”

My cat would absolutely love this! And maybe he’d leave my side for longer than he currently does.
my lovelies would go crazy over it!
My cat Steve would climb right in. :)
“Snooze it or lose it, Tortie.” Bwahahahaha!
this is adorable, i think my cat would love this!
What a beautiful hidey spot! Sadly at 21 lbs. Teddy is just too big for something like this BUT we are sure someone else will love love LOVE it!
Hugs, Pam
I never realized how big Teddy was until you mentioned it earlier. He’s such a big (lovable) boy! Giving him a BIG long-distance hug!
Pam, If you are the winner, so ahead and give it a try with Teddy. We’ve honestly seen big cats using this bed, and we’ve seen two cats using it, so their combined weight met or exceeded his.
They are great! An entrance and exit! A tunnel or cave or collapse for a bed! Machine washable! A purrfect cat bed! Woohoo!
I think my cat would like this very much. I also love that it comes in different fabrics. Too bad my three favs (black velvet, brown, and snowball) are sold out.
My kitty would certainly love the original Cat Ball Cat Cave Bed!
That is a great bed, and everyone seems to love it.
I think my cats would enjoy this bed.
This looks like something my cats may fight over!
Oh, my cats would LOVE this! My Kotoha loves finding places to curl up when she wants to nap and this would give her a place of her own.
Sophie looks too cute in that cat bed!
This is legitimately adorable! My Luther needs this!
Need this!
Such a unique design! All the other products on the website are great, too! I really like how the hexagonal design holds its shape. Casper loves lounging in caves instead of beds. I think he may enjoy this cute ball :)
She would love It
My cats would all fight for a spot to sleep in this 💕😻
That sure looks like a fun place to hang out…or in!
Never saw such a cool ball to chillax :D Pawkisses for a Happy Sunday and Good Luck ones to the entries🐾😽💞
We’ve got one, and we love it : good luck to our US friends ! Purrs
my cat would go crazy over this!
My cats would both love this.
That is an interesting cat bed and those are great photos.
This is perfect! I’ve been searching for a cozy ‘enclosed’ style kitty bed/spot the past week for my CH senior girl Lillia. It’s getting chilly and she’s always preferred hideaway styles since she was a kitten. Being a wobbly cat I think she feels safe and secure. What fun too, she may be 13but she’s going strong!
These are fantastic beds! The cats love them (even though my cats use their Cat Ball cat beds *their* way!) And they stand up to use and washing incredibly well. Love them in the sanctuary adoption room for shy cats there.
We love Cat Ball!
Oh, that certainly does look warm and cozy! We can see it was a big hit at your house, for sure. :)
That is some real quality modelling!
Once again, we are entering on behalf of Winnie’s Wish.
Purrs,
The Chans
This is awesome! I love the black velvet one :)
These look AWESOME.
Cool bed! We like the leopard fabric. Actually, we like lots of the different fabrics.
Am thinking that Da Boyz would figure out a way to stuff themselves in a Cat Ball!
The Cat Ball has to be one of our favorite places to nap!
I know a cat that woukd love this
Absolutely — she tries to make her own cuddly spots in our comforters every day!
Wow, I can picture me laying in a Strawberry with my feets hangin out.

The Cat Ball looks like it would be something cats would really love!
I think our cat, Fritz, would love this, as he likes to snuggle up in blankets and clothing items to sleep.
That is a cool bed. And you all look so cute trying it. I like your unique style Olive :)
He would most definitely love this ball.
I think he would love it.
This looks great! Big enough for most any position that a cat could put themselves into, and very warm and a great place to hide. This would be great! Thank you for having all of your giveaways!

Your kitties look like they really loved the cat ball cave :) I love the pics <3 My cats would really enjoy it too I think.
This is too cute! The very first photo of Sophie with her lil head poking out the smaller hole is my favorite 😍
Retro and Think sure have pretty coats and eyes. Oh, I think any pussycat would luv a cat ball bed. I could totally see my furr-iend Bear Cat in a shark ball! Tee hee hee.
My cat Buddy would love to cuddle inside this bed.
I think Dobby would really enjoy it. I would be interested to see if Dr. Yang would like it.
Monkey and Squeakers would love this!!!
i dont have cats, so i would donate to safe haven for cats. however, i think my dogs would love this, but they dont need it, so it would go to safe haven for cats. i donate on a reg basis. they also have a big event coming up, which they can auction off many of the things i win that i dont need or use.
The Cat Ball is such a great and versatile toy for all cats! 😻😻😻😻😻
I think one of my cats, Leonardo, would love this. He’s a big one for hiding and sleeping curled up in a ball.

My 3 cats would love playing and napping in this!
My cat would love this! I like all of the fabric options. My kids really love the shark one since they are into baby shark right now. Good luck everyone!
“Snooze it or lose it, Tortie.” MOL!!! Those are fighting words! Mudpie has always thought the Cat Balls look so cozy!
My cat Dez would love this. She not much of a cuddler, but likes to snuggle in her own special spot in the same room as us.
