Hey there

I'm branching out into producing items for larger pets, such as cat beds, and would like to hear what your opinions are. In the lead-up to Christmas, do you guys want to see Christmas themed cat beds, or just regular pretty cat beds?
I ask as I'm going to my first craft fair next month, and wish to debut some premade cat items there!

Thanks

I would say regular ones myself - can't see the point in buying a cat bed just for christmas. But, i think people would buy a christmas one for the novelty factor.

My two sleep anywhere but the bed i bought for them - a small bean bag i made years ago at school has now become a cat bed - so at least someone is using it.

I wouldn't invest too much money in making a lot of Christmas themed beds as once Christmas is over they look a bit silly. Better to make slightly unusual or just general good quality, hardwearing, washable beds in various shapes and sizes! I always wish more pet bed makers would include either an extra cover or cushion for the inside of a bed for when you take one off to wash.

Hey there

Thanks, that is what I was thinking! People do always have the option to order one in Christmas fabrics if they so wish.

Thanks for the tip about removable cushions - I do make these as an an option for all my beds, but I'll include them as standard with my cat sized beds.

Thanks

Hey there

I will be selling these beds primarily at my store, Cavy Couture - Handmade Accessories For All Exotic Pets
I will also be taking them along to the craft show I have planned, which if it goes well (I'm brand new and havent done any yet), I will be attending many more.
If you'd like to drop me an email for a chat then go for it!

I havent quite decided on what stock I'll be taking to the fair, but I will deifnitely make up one Christmas bed, but focus on the normal range. If people like the Christmas themes, they can always order one made on my site anyway
