Celebrating Our Feline Friends
October is the month to celebrate our feline friends. Cats are known for their independence, curiosity, and love of comfort, and their furniture should reflect just that. Whether your cat rules the household or prefers to watch from a quiet corner, a bespoke piece of furniture can bring together practicality, personality, and elegance in your home.
At The Pet Carpenter, we have created a small but growing collection of furniture designed with cats in mind. Each piece reflects how we can combine pet comfort with timeless home design.
Designing for the Cat Mindset
Cats think differently from dogs. They love privacy, height, and spaces that allow them to observe the world safely. When we design furniture for cats, we look to create pieces that fit their behaviour while complementing your home.
Bespoke cat furniture allows owners to design something that works perfectly for both the cat and the space. Whether it’s a discreet litter tray cupboard or a multi-functional unit that doubles as a bookshelf, the goal is the same: comfort for your cat and harmony for your home.
A Few Favourite Cat Projects
While our core focus has been on bespoke dog furniture, our cat projects have been some of the most imaginative and rewarding. Here are a few highlights that have inspired other cat owners to think creatively:
Cat and Dog Double Piece
Designed for a home with both pets, this piece featured a private cat area inaccessible to the dog, with a three-bowl feeding station and drawers above for the client’s storage needs.
Cat Litter Cupboard with Bookshelf
A larger, more refined piece that offers both function and form. The addition of an open bookshelf above transforms the design into a feature that truly elevates the room.
Cat Furniture Dresser Piece
Vertical innovation for the cat and exceptional functionality for the home. We are still in the process of refining the final design of this Dresser Cat Furniture, but conceptually it really meets every need for our clients’ cats.
Each design begins with the owner’s lifestyle in mind. We collaborate closely to create furniture that not only works for the cat but also enhances the overall aesthetic of the home.
Imagining What’s Next
When it comes to bespoke cat furniture, imagination is everything. Think integrated shelving that doubles as climbing space, hidden rest pods beneath window seats, or feeding stations built into cabinetry.
Our design process allows us to turn these ideas into reality, combining your inspiration with our craftsmanship. If you can dream it, we can create it.
Function, Form, and Feline Freedom
Cats love comfort, but they also love choice. Every bespoke cat design from The Pet Carpenter focuses on functionality, detail, and harmony with the home.
Smooth finishes, clever air circulation, easy-clean interiors, and matching paintwork all contribute to a design that feels intentional and effortless. Every piece is built by hand in our Devon workshop using quality materials that stand the test of time.
We believe in crafting furniture that looks beautiful and makes your cat feel safe and content.
