Spoiled Tabby Cat Gets His Own Room in House, and It's Totally Tricked Out

A whole room just for a cat? That may seem like overkill to most pet parents, but apparently it was a fun project for the “human employees” of this spoiled tabby cat, whose adventures are chronicled on social media under the name Milo the Chonk. This good boy got his own room, completely with a ton of cat-friendly furniture and amenities, and even a television so he could watch his favorite show.

In this video, Milo shows off the various features of his very own bedroom, which features soft furnishings, a cat tree, a window ledge perfect for perching, a space heater, and even his very own television set. (No one show my kids this cat has a TV in his room or I’ll never hear the end of it.) Though he does live with another cat, Poppy, there’s no word about if Poppy has her own room or if she has to share with her feline brother.

Enrichment for House Cats

Unlike dogs, most cats do not have to be taken on daily walks for entertainment and enrichment. Cats are social animals, though, who enjoy playtime and toys as much as any other mammal. Popular toys for cats include soft catnip stuffs, feathered teasers, tunnels, laser pointers and—best of all—another cat.

Some cats even like watching TV, like this one. SpongeBob Squarepants is a popular option with the furry friends, for some reason.

The Best Beds For Cats

Notably, this room contains several spaces where Milo the cat can curl up and take a nap. He has his owned, which he likes to be “tucked” into. He also has several small, cat0sized couches set in front of the TV. There’s a padded platform in front of the window where he can sit and watch the world go by. There’a comfy rug put in front of a fireplace-style space heater. And, finally, there’s a cat tree.

Wow!

Many cat lovers will tell you of their own trials and travails when it comes to finding a bed their cat likes more than the cardboard box it came in. I myself bought several different cat beds, only to watch my rescue cats prefer the back of the couch or a piece of tissue paper laid on the floor. In fact, the only cat-specific furniture that my cats immediately liked was the large cat tree. They leapt up onto the tiers of upholstered platforms before I’d even finished installing all the pieces.

Cats also like sleeping in different places during different parts of the day. Mine always take a nap in the sunbeams filtering through the living room sliding glass doors in the late afternoon, nap on the dining room chair in the evening, and spend the evening in a cardboard box placed exactly equidistant between my room and my child’s—you know, just in case.

So when it comes to finding the perfect bed for your cat, the answer is—the bed they will use. Most cats like something soft, as well a preferring elevated resting spots, so it’s good to think vertically when it comes to making a resting spot for your feline.

Still, if there’s any constant when it comes to cats, it’s that they are contrary. So don’t spend too much money on a cat bed until you’re sure you know exactly what your particular cat likes.
