Yes, this Jonathan Adler Dog Bed is advertised as just that -- a dog bed. But it would work just as well as a cat bed.
It's beautiful. Our hesitation, however, is that while the cover has a zipper so that it can be removed and cleaned, drycleaning our pet bed covers (which the company recommends) is not something we can see ourselves doing. (Is it just our dog and cat who leave hair and (sometimes) footprints on their beds? Do yours?)

DRYcleaning the DOG bed cover?
Honey, I don't buy human bedspreads that require drycleaning. Cats can read care labels. Cat dialogue goes like this.
Smarter cat: Look! The crazy female person left a dryclean-only fabric on the floor. Y'know, other cat, the people will think you're really clever if you pee on it.
Naive cat: D'oh! Do ya think so?
Smarter cat: I know it. Trust me. They *hate* cleaning the litter box.
Drycleaning does not get out the scent of cat urine.
haha! Wende, I think my cat would sleep right *next* to any really expensive bed I bought for her, just to really piss me off.
Of course, last night I was having all these really stressful dreams, and when I woke up there was Tallulah, sleeping on my chest staring me in the face. Apparently sleeping with a 12-pound weight on your chest is not good for your health.
The smarter cat does sleep next to the basket that I painted for her and lined with faux leopard... the basket probably will be decluttered out of existence fairly soon, as she's had a year to make up her mind about it.
maybe there should be a contest for the most expensive thing you've bought for your pet that they didn't bother to use once. The prize could be a cardboard box, since they generally like free things better than anything you might actually save up to purchase.
does anyone know what kind of dog this is pictured? he's cute.
Katie,
I forget the type of dog but it's Jonathan's dog.
It's is Jonathan's dog! He's a Norwich Terrier, and his name is Liberace. He's quite a photogenic pup.
ah thanks, he is cute isn't he?
I'm kind of grossed out by the fact that i just knew that off the top of my head.
Hey aquarabbit, I think it's great that you knew it was Jonathan's dog. Hell, we're all fanatics. I wish the Jonathan Adler lamps I wanted weren't $500 each!
Aquarabbit, if I tell you that I laughed out loud at your cardboard box remark (because it's so true!) will you forgive me for correcting you about the kind of dog Liberace is?
You were close with Norwich, but in reality it's a Norfolk terrier, the difference is in the ears. The Norwich's ears stand up like a Cairn's. And Norfolks are great little beings. I used to take care of one and I adored him. He was just a wonderful dog. He would lag behind my friend and me and my dog on walks in Central Park and when she would get annoyed at his slowness, turn and call him, he would instantly lift his leg as if peeing. He knew that would always work. Quite a character.
