    It’s hard to say – she either will or she won’t. We got a cat bed and BOTH our cats started using it right away – on the other hand, I got a cactus shaped cat scratcher and the big cat NEVER used it – the small one doesn’t ever either. So really, just a matter of them getting used to it and getting in the habit. You might want to put a few of (or all of) the cat toys in it…. worked for us :)

    On the other hand, she just might flat out NOT like the cat bed. You can always get a new one if needed. I got my dog bed from http://American-Pets.com – my cats love it and the dog never gets to be on it! haha

    Good luck!

    Cats are creatures of habit. She’ll do it when she’s good and ready, but you can help the process if you put her in the bed. It could also help to put a familiar smell in the bed so she can get used to it.

    Hate to tell you, but she may never use it. I have several cat beds around in the house – they used them as kittens from time to time, but their beds are the couch, chair, stairsteps and our bed. I don’t even remember the last time they used one of the cat beds. I have different types. I don’t waste my money on buying cute cat beds any more.

    She won’t use it most likely. A folded towel on the couch is what they like.

    Unlike dogs, cats sleep wherever they want to, they don’t limit themselves to a bed. Ours have a rotating schedule of using the closet, my bed, the corner of the couch, the window seat, a cushion on top a box that I haven’t put away for a year now because they like it there, and a flat topped plastic bin cover.
