Cat's bed

Cats like to have a basket with a soft, washable pillow or blankets to sleep on. Of course, even the most beautiful basket and the most comfortable “home” won't be used if your cat has it in his head that the best place to sleep is on top of your pillow.

When a cat puts something like that into his head, he will stubbornly believe in it, and there's no guarantee that you'll be able to break the habit.

It's in the cat's nature to be a bit of a bullhead.

You, as a cat lover, should be tolerant of this.
