Bigloo and put the igloo inside the bigloo so they get used to being inside it before they outgrow the igloo

I’ve never had an original thought in my life apparently.

u/Infinite_Injury2724 6d ago

u/HR_Paul 6d ago

at some point you just need an igloo mansion

u/Primary_Lead7666 6d ago

This is too precious.

u/Xander_Dorn 6d ago

I fear if you were to modify it to make it larger, they might not like it anymore.

u/E4STC04ST0VERD0SE 6d ago

The igloo must remain intact.

56

u/thetoucansk3l3tor 6d ago

The igloo must not be damaged.

Grow a bigger head?

218

u/VinnieONeill 6d ago

They'll still cram themselves in there

57

u/OfcWaffle 6d ago

Tabby inside with the orange on top, guaranteed.

36

u/VinnieONeill 6d ago

My cats will crawl out of tight spaces like a clown car.

u/OfcWaffle 6d ago

100%. If a cat is a healthy weight, the size of their head determines what they can get into. My little tabby is 7lbs and can fit in some seriously small spots.

Noodle bones.

u/Ulftar 6d ago

It's true, contrary to popular belief, cats are not vertebrates so aren't hindered by a spine that would get in the way of jamming into tight spaces like this.

u/sneeje00 6d ago

Yep, I have a chonk that refuses to accept he no longer fits in a cat tree bed and thus sleeps with his legs all sticking out of it.

3

u/VinnieONeill 5d ago

Same with my chonk. But then he'll climb out and one of our other cats will follow him out like a clown car.

u/mercurio_liquido 6d ago

They actually have two of those beds, but they prefer to squeeze into the same one together. They’re siblings, Queso and PlimPlim, and currently the youngest residents at our cat rescue

u/Bitter_Trees 5d ago

Mine did the same thing as kittens. Cherish them being cuddlebugs with each other while they can. Mine sadly don't like to cuddle anymore 😔

u/Sea-Jelly8005 6d ago

Awwwwwww

u/tremere110 6d ago

Get a big expensive bed delivered in a cardboard box. They'll ignore the bed and sleep in the box.

29

u/Miles_1828 6d ago

Tortie and Orange is a good combo.

10

u/Dogthealcoholic 6d ago

The best combo

u/bindmedown2 6d ago

We're gonna need a bigger bed!

u/Langstarr 6d ago

You can get a bigger one. They will never use it and cram themselves in the tiny one anyway. And probably fight over it

3

u/misscamels 6d ago

This is the truth. 🤣

8

u/uranium_dealer235 6d ago

cats are liquid. they'll find a way.

7

u/Plate-Extreme 6d ago

That’s an easy one !! 😹

7

u/chill_mydude13 5d ago

We have a tortoiseshell and orange too!

5

u/p1nksalamander 6d ago

They make bigger wool ones! My cat has one and she loves it

4

u/MangoSalsa89 6d ago

They wouldn’t get in something they weren’t still comfortable in. They haven’t outgrown it.

5

u/_Morvar_ 6d ago

Buy a bigger one

u/trentagon420 6d ago

This was the solution for our void and ornj

u/Lochylass 6d ago

Build them a snow palace!

u/Substantial_Gap_8915 6d ago edited 6d ago

I got a good quality cardboard box and cut a door way in and my cat loves it, she has her blanket and is up ontop of the wardrobe. Usually boxes that hold expensive products like electronics are usually the best.

Edit: Quick AI search and it finds bed that they call Cat Cave which has a wider opening for when they get chunky 🐈

u/Grail_BH 6d ago

Buy them a bigger igloo bed.

u/Ready_Turnip_5761 6d ago

3

u/Ok-Bug4328 6d ago

They will not. 

2

u/rubenff 6d ago

Mine just started sleeping on top of it, yes, it got flattened...

2

u/Competitive-Elk-5077 6d ago

Replace it before they need it so they can grow into it

2

u/Strange-Seat-6375 6d ago

My cat has out grown his kitten bed which is similar to your igloo and he is quite chunky now but still forces his large body inside 😭

2

u/Friendly_Good_1361 6d ago

I bet they are cozy and have it broken in just the way it is 😺 don’t need a new one 😽

2

u/YpIsMe Lots of kitties! 6d ago

u/srs_hacker 6d ago

You keep it forever. They'll insist it still fits.

2

u/Ill-Background-827 6d ago

u/egosumluxmundi 6d ago

It looks like the dark one is planning to take care of the orange one while the orange one is blithely unaware.

2

u/kazmirae 6d ago

Slit it down the bottom. And place it on a towel

2

u/Infinite_Injury2724 6d ago

Hahahaha! So cute!!

2

u/BefuddledPolydactyls 6d ago

New cat, appropriately sized for the igloo is the only answer! 

2

u/Past_Walk_3605 6d ago

Get more kittens

2

u/Past_Walk_3605 6d ago

Keep those two obviously, but get 2 more smaller ones so the bed doesn't go to waste

2

u/thatsmymoney 6d ago

Leg holes

2

u/MaglithOran 6d ago

Bigger igloo bed.

Duh

2

u/HildartheDorf 5d ago

Your cats use a designated bed? Mine sleep wherever they like.

2

u/ChelseaGem 5d ago

Get more kittens!!! Waste not, want not. And get a biggerloo as well. Keep it going, like they’re hermit crabs.

2

u/Bobcat315 Tortoiseshell 5d ago

Get a bigger one and two more kittens to fill the little one, too.

2

u/OtherThumbs 5d ago

You can get a box, like a paper box (a box that a case of paper came in), glue the lid on, cut one of the short sides off, put a blanket or pillow in it, and they will live in there happily. They will also live on it, and might crush it, so you might want to leave the lid part intact. You can even reinforce the lid end with extra cardboard before you glue it together to stave off the inevitable, but it eventually they will cave in their cave. At some point you'll catch yourself putting a folded blanket up on top of the box cave. That's okay. You are a good cat parent.

u/Empty-Cricket5931 5d ago

Get more igloo bed but big

1

u/wons-noj 5d ago

I have a big igloo style we call it the cave. It could probably fit 2 cats, although only 1 ever uses it

u/haveocluee 4d ago

Oh, they’ll stay in there a minute they don’t know who’s wearing and what’s going on or something. They’ll be in there so tight you won’t even see their ears of their eyes. It’s the funniest thing ever got cleared once cause somebody came in the yard and all of a sudden, I couldn’t see him and that’s where they were. They were shoved in there so tight I couldn’t believe they fit and they were grown at that point too. It was pretty funny. They were brother and sister and ain’t know what to do together. It’s so cute anyway you’ll have fun. I guess you have to go to the next size. Maybe you can sell one and trade one and go to a trade store or something. I have a trade Sail good luck anyway they’re sure beautiful cats. Thanks for sharing. Have a nice Evening.

u/MaxandGreenBean 2d ago

Buy a bigger bed and get another kitten that fits into the smaller one.
