But how hard is it to clean the inevitable fur and hairball puke?

[–] PattyMcB@lemmy.world 95 points 1 month ago (2 children)
[–] navi@lemmy.tespia.org 151 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Exactly this.

I had the bed in OPs meme and it was great at first! My cats loved it, they zoomed through day and night. Then one day I noticed only one of the cats would enter at a time and only while I wasn't looking. Eventually I found out one of our cats was holding politically extreme meetings under the bed which eventually resulted in an attempted coup d'etat.

Anyways, great bed. My cats run my house now and I get to sleep under the bed in a cool maze!

how did you come up with this on the spot? Psychedelics? (Serious question)

[–] Lupus@feddit.org 23 points 1 month ago

Some people just have silly minds. I tirelessly endeavor to be more like them.

[–] navi@lemmy.tespia.org 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I was pooping and I had a free minute to practice comedy!

Seems like you'd just lift up the mattress like they did for this picture.

[–] errer@lemmy.world 58 points 1 month ago (5 children)

Lifting out a mattress to clean is a huge pain in the ass

Woah Woah

You do not need pets to vacuum out under your bed

[–] CmdrShepard49@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Of course you don't need pets for that. You just need a vacuum.

I don't need to lift my mattress to vacuum under the bed either

[–] dingus@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Why would I vacuum under my bed? That's where I shove items when I pretend like I'm cleaning the house.

[–] BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 month ago

I'm trying to teach them to hoover under the bed, but they refuse.

Some beds have storage underneath. They have a lift mechanism that lifts the whole mattress. If you used one of those as a base, then cleaning gets a lot easier.

It sounds so easy when you say it

the cats are gonna take up the whole bed and then you'll be forced to sleep in the maze

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 53 points 1 month ago (1 children)

more like this because my cat is too dumb to find the exit:

[–] winkly@lemmy.world 38 points 1 month ago

Great place to store small dead animals

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 35 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Try to give them medicine once and you'll be lifting the box spring and mattress off late at night! I guarantee it...

[–] Bonesince1997@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Before attempting such things (with or without this crazy setup), it is best to block all escapes/hiding spots, like closing a door to a room with these risks.

[–] Bluewing@lemmy.world 32 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No absolutely not!

The little orange Zip is already dragging socks under the bed to fight. I would never be able to get them back

My dumbass cats would get lost down there and we'd have to let them out twice a night

[–] TipsyMcGee@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 1 month ago

I was just wondering what kind of billionaire mansion people would have to live in to not use the space under their bed for storage

[–] bear@lemmy.blahaj.zone 28 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Do you want a spider empire? Because this is how you get a spider empire.

[–] SW42@lemmy.world 32 points 1 month ago

Not if the cat overlords roam the labyrinth. If it moves its free game :)

"hackhackhackhack"....Oh shit!

Hairball puke pile under my bed.

I mean there's already one there, but i can at least get to it.

[–] SW42@lemmy.world 21 points 1 month ago (2 children)

This is the stupidest idea I’ve ever seen - I love it!

[–] danc4498@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

Stupid idea but great execution

[–] Strider@lemmy.world 20 points 1 month ago

Taking apart the bed at night because they brought a mouse there.

Nice.

[–] PattyMcB@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

That's cats regardless of bed trappings

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

One of our cats would go in and we would never see her again...

[–] aeternum@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 1 month ago

Is there a /c/zoomies yet? This would provide the community with content for years

[–] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago (2 children)

And its not too dark for them in the interior?

[–] PattyMcB@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago (3 children)

You don't have cats, do you? Lol

[–] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 month ago

I do. They don't go into the donut because it's too dark, i have to cut a hole at the back so they would go in. Bunch of pussy i say.

Yeah, that’s what you need to hear at 2 AM.

[–] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)
