The Pesky Cat's Day Dream


I recently came across this incredible cat bed made by German artist Dornroeschen Filzunikate. This beautiful piece of functional art called a Katzenhohle, cat cave, is handmade of felted wool. It's definitely the most unique cat bed I have ever seen. It would bring a bit of nature into my urban NYC home.

I think my Anni would love a cat cave although her favorite spots right now are the pillow behind my head in bed, a straw basket that was meant to store magazines and a storage box made from fabric that becomes a hammock when she sleeps in it.

My sweet Anni

FOX 5 Update: A while back I wrote a post about a story that Fox 5 news was doing on Etsy and the handmade market. I was interviewed in my studio as part of the feature. An Etsy press agent recently informed me that the story aired April 15th and he also missed it. He said he is trying to get a copy of it from the studio. I'll be sure to post a link to it when it becomes available.

You have to get the Katzenhohle, it looks like cat heaven!

Mmmm, I wouldn't mind having a yummy porch like the one in the picture (and a sweet cat to nap on it on warm days...)

That cat bed is adorable! I'm sure one of my crew would crawl up and hide in there! Love it.

I am sorry I'm so far behind with your posts. Anni is such a beautiful cat. It makes me happy to know that you found each other in NYC and now Anni lives with you and has the comfy, loving home she deserves!

The Katzenhohle is amazing! It's a perfect cat bed, considering that my cats love to curl up inside of bags and boxes but this bed is much prettier than those things. Will Anni be getting one?

New Harris Tweed Purses

Harris Tweed Color Block Purse This week in the studio I did some experimenting combining various Harris Tweed weaves to create a purse. This purse is also a new design measuring at approximately 14" wide, 8.5" high and 2.5" deep. Roomy enough to fit your daily essentials with a stream-lined design to fit comfortably under your arm. Harris Tweed Color Block Purse The purse above is made from Harris Tweed wool in two plain weaves and a barleycorn weave. I love the contrasting colors and textures. Back view of purses above. Harris Tweed Two Tone Bag And last but not least, a basket/tote design, using a lovely blue Harris Tweed plain weave and a Macleod check. All these new bags are now available at the Pesky Cat Designs shop. Wishing everyone a great weekend ahead!
Everything in my shop is now 20% OFF and includes free shipping!
