WAFFLES: Hey Boss, check it out! I'm KING OF TOWNHOUSE!
KATIE: Well you may be king of the Googie Cat Bed, but the TOWNHOUSE??? I don't think so.
WAFFLES: Googie? You mean like on the computer and stuff? I don't see a computer. Do you see a computer?
KATIE: Not Google, Waffles. GOOGIE.
WAFFLES: Ok, Boss. What's your Googie password? You need to login if you're going to come in here.
KATIE: I'M not sharing my – wait a minute! Waffles, you're being ridiculous. Now don't get too comfortable in there. Remember, we're only test driving this. We're going to be donating it to the shelter cats at Feline Rescue, remember?
WAFFLES: Can I go visit it?
KATIE: You just say the word and I'll call you a cab. I'll even pay your one-way fare.
Introducing the Googie Cat Bed
We first saw this cool bed at BlogPaws in the swanky Hauspanther Cat Lounge. Of course Glogirly is a sucker for anything that looks cool and modern so she was instantly drawn to it. The design is inspired by the Googie style of architecture. Think 1950's coffee shop with those curvy, amoeba-shaped signs and the hip boomerang patterns. Think George Jetson.
More than Just Hip & Cool
The Googie Cat Bed is much more than a cool looking place to hang out. It's a finely crafted piece of furniture. Incredibly solid construction, NO assembly required by the way, it's made to stand the test of time. The frame is thick and smoothly sanded plywood covered with funky formica. The two ledges are wrapped in a tightly woven carpeting made from 100% post consumer recycled bottles. Padded on the inside, it's cushy comfy and also very roomy. Strongly reinforced, even the plumpest fluffiest of cats can curl up with ease. It comes in three color/pattern combinations.
We TOLD You it's Not Just a Bed!
Waffles put the Googie bed through some rigorous testing. To say he LOVED playing in it is an understatement. Despite the crazed look in his eyes, no treats, catnip or other incentives were involved in the taking of this photograph. Seriously.
Pricing
As we mentioned, the Googie Cat Bed is an extremely well-crafted piece of furniture. It's not made from cardboard and plastic and is therefore an investment. Based on it's quality, we're convinced it will outlive most of the competition. The bed sells for $250.00 and now through August 31, you can get free shipping, valued between $30-60.00, on your order using promo code: googiepaw1048.

Happy Tuesday!
>>smooches<<
Great design! If Waffles likes it I'm sure it's great.
ReplyDeleteI like the fact that it has 2 sleeping areas/shelves for my cats to enjoy. Plus its gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI like that it's well crafted and sturdy. Cats can be rough on things.
ReplyDeleteI think it seems to be a hideaway fort for cats!
ReplyDeleteLuv dat bed!
ReplyDeleteI like that it's a hidey place since cats love that so much.
ReplyDeleteWow, that has got to be one of the awesomest cat beds I've ever seen!
ReplyDeleteThat is one awesome cat bed! We love that it has two levels. Then two of us could use it at once....if we're nice enough to share with each other, MOL!
ReplyDeleteOMC that is an amazing bed....we know it would be well loved here!!
ReplyDeleteThe Florida Furkids
This is fabulous! I love the two levels, and the way a kitty can feel like they're hidden away on the lower level. So awesome!
ReplyDeleteThat's a sooper-cool design!!!
ReplyDeleteThat looks awesome so stylish and trendy and also multicast could use it at the same time
ReplyDeleteI like that it has two shelves, so two cats and lay on it at the same time.
ReplyDeleteWhat a versatile piece of cat furniture! And it looks great right out in the open.
ReplyDeleteNow that is one very cool cat bed!
ReplyDeleteMadison & Simba would love the chance to fight over this totally nifty cat bed! :)
ReplyDeletewe like the look of that - but we wonder if the edges of the platforms are finished?
ReplyDeleteCoolest cat bed ever! FR kitties will love it!
ReplyDeleteThat looks quite nice. We entered - hopefully we will win.
ReplyDeleteWow! A bed that the dog can't steal from Thunder!

ReplyDeleteWhat a. smart design!
ReplyDeleteMy kitties would love this! :)
ReplyDeleteWe love it. We kittehs would really enjoy it. It's just pawsome. We really hope we win. Thanks Glogirly for the opportunity to enter. Great acquisition for the shelter.
ReplyDeleteI like that it has two resting spots, perfect for my two indoor kitties!
ReplyDeleteGeorgie would like the second level so he can attack Sniper without Sniper knowing in advance. Harper would like the top level so she can survey her minions from a lofty (to her anyway) height.
ReplyDeleteWas really happy to see this review. I love the Davies Decor cat products and actually interviewed Tom Davies on my radio show. The Googie Bed and Post and Beam Cat House are such beautiful pieces of furniture and so stylish, they're more like art. And, Waffles looks like he knows a good thing when he see one!
ReplyDeleteAbby says, Yes please!
ReplyDeleteWe like the modern design. Super cool!
I like that more than one kitty can sit on it. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteSue B

ReplyDeleteMeowm remembers seeing this bed at Blogpaws in the Hauspanther lounge. And if Waffles loves it, we bet we will too!
ReplyDeleteIt is a bed, a scratcher and a bunch of fun by the looks of it!
ReplyDeleteWhoa! That’s a fancy smancy piece of cat furniture. I’d love one. Pretty please with a bribe on top.
ReplyDeleteThis is great...... a bed, a scratcher oh my. This looks like so much fun and the color. I gotta get one of these for my 2 furbabies. Hope I win this.
ReplyDeleteI like how cute Waffles looks in the bed.
ReplyDeleteHi Waffles!
If I win it it would be cooler than my box(es) Mommy says. There is no hope of buying one, cause we don't have green papers for such things. I don't have a cat tree (heights aren't my thing, I'm a down to the earth kind of cat) and this would be perfect. And sturdy. Mommy likes that, too.
ReplyDeleteGood luck to everyone.
And thanks for thinking of my friends at Feline Rescue. Wait. My friends should be gone to their furever homes! Well, the volunteers are friends, too!
Just seeing the photos of Waffles enjoying this bed gives it a glowing recommendation. We know the shelter is really going to enjoy having that. Very generous thing to do. We had a comment on our blogoversary post saying you put up a link to us. We assume it was on Facebook. Thank you so much. You are such a good furiend. At last check we had 75 comments, which really blows us away. Thanks too for visiting on our 2nd blogoversary to celebrate with us! XO, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
ReplyDeleteSo cool! Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteYou can never have enough cat beds, especially in a house with three cats. I like that it's double decker. I'll take the top bunk!
ReplyDeleteAre you sure you won't need another bed for Waffles?
ReplyDeleteThank you, Waffles, for all of your hard work to make this bed safe and comfy for the shelter cats. I can see that it will need to go in the suite with the most orange folks, since you've decorated it with your lovely fur. We have Ari, about twice your size, and Ginger Snap, a one-eyed speeding bullet, just waiting for it!
ReplyDeleteThat is the absolute coolest things ever! We love it! We're crossing all our paws and even our tails!
ReplyDeleteWow, a bed that's cozy AND fun! The best of both worlds.
ReplyDeleteI like that it's not just a bed and can be used as a scratching post.
ReplyDeleteThat really does look like a fun place to play to snooze!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool looking bed!
ReplyDeleteLove that it's made of recycled materials, and good for scratching too!
ReplyDeleteSuper stylin'!
ReplyDeleteA bed AND a play tree - that can survive Waffles! What a pawsome design.
ReplyDeleteWe need that cool bed!
ReplyDeleteOMC! That looks like 2 cats might even be able share it. With 4 cats in the house, it would sure come in handy.
ReplyDelete--Wags (and purrs) from Life with Dogs and Cats
Hey you got bunk beds! Who gets the top one?
ReplyDeleteWaffles, you make that bed look like so much fun when it's turned on its side!
ReplyDeleteThat looks lovely. We are sad we cant receive it as we are not in the US but maybe it is for the best as Red would sit on top and poke Magic in the face the way he often does! No wonder he gets hissed at!
ReplyDeleteI actually like that when you said it is "50s inspired" that that is actually RETRO....I also like that it resembles an old fashioned foot stool...that is a GOOD thing!
ReplyDeleteWow, that bed is fantasmical! We would love to win it, so thank you for the opportunity. :)
ReplyDeleteI like that it has two levels, I have guys that love to be king of the mountain and my girls like to hide and attack. It's a great design-the print reminds me of going to eat with my grandparents when I was little to the town diner. Raine buzzyngabe(at)yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteThat bed is wonderful! I bet the kitties are going to love how it is a little cave and has that nice carpet to scratch!
ReplyDeleteI love the retro design and it would be great for 2 cats to sit on! :)
ReplyDeleteI love that it is a solid, quality piece of furniture! The design is super cute too :)
ReplyDeleteI like that it looks durable, my cat shreds everything! I think The Lady would LOVE this!
ReplyDeleteI like that it could also be used for fun not just a bed. Esp with 2 fun cats.
ReplyDeleteMulti-use and modern,the cat bed is very well designed.
ReplyDeleteI love that my giant Ragdoll will happily squish himself into it!
ReplyDeleteWe likes that it is sturdy enough for even the plumpest of cats. Well Scylla likes that fact. The weight loss is going SLoooooooW
ReplyDeleteWaffles, you make that Googie bed look like the best thing ever! We just have to have one now! Entering your giveaway for sure!
ReplyDeleteWe think it's a cool design, but the words reinforced and Waffles tested sealed the deal. :)
ReplyDeleteTom Davies has always been very kind to us and we're having a Googie Bed Giveaway next week :-0
ReplyDeleteIf I win I will donate it to the shelter I volunteer at.
ReplyDeleteWith two kitties who love their own place to be I LOVE that there is a spot for both of them. One of our littles is ALL ABOUT scratching his beds so this would be perfect for him. My guys would LOVE this bed and have their paws crossed that they win!
ReplyDeleteI Love the bunk bed feature for cats and/or kittens!
ReplyDeleteI admired this bed at BlogPaws. It is very well-made and stylish!
ReplyDeleteIts so sturdy and nice looking! Im sure my kitties will be a fan, especially Romy.
ReplyDeleteThat bed is so modern. I'd love to give one to a shelter.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great bed! Looks very well designed and of good quality. It would look like a piece of furniture in our TV room.
ReplyDeleteLove the two levels! Jerry needs a cool place to sleep!
ReplyDeletewhat a cool and awesome bed!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the Googie bed!
ReplyDeleteThat is such a cool bed. We want one!
ReplyDeleteWe would love one, but we know a shelter in the USA who would love one even more.
ReplyDeleteWow - someone is going to win a very nice prize. We'll enter this time too. Waffles you are so very cute, but I think you'd better watch your step with Katie - she's losing her patience.
ReplyDeleteThat's a pawsome bed! And very generous of the company to donate one to shelter kitties! Yay! - Addycat
ReplyDeleteLOVE that it has two levels and is stylish to boot! The two levels and the way it's designed overall looks to invite interactive play as well as nap-time. I think mine would be so happy with one of these beds. Separately, the photo of the bed on its side with Waffles inside it having a blast made me smile out loud! Thank you for the chance to win one!
ReplyDeleteI like the two levels and that it is sturdy.

Cool looking bed. My big guy, Stuart, won't fit in the middle but the two would!
ReplyDeleteI like that it has two levels. Although my two cats would probably fight over the same space.... :)
ReplyDeleteDigicats {at} Sbcglobal {dot} Net
I like that it seems very sturdy. We have some very playful kitties and this would hold up to them!
ReplyDeleteI love it because it is unique, and my boys would get a kick out of it
ReplyDeleteNice design, and Shaggy would like it because with his arthritis he can't jump very easily anymore.
ReplyDeleteSaw this bed at the BlogPaws Catification Lounge—super because it's multi-purpose!
ReplyDeleteWe love the design. It's very clean and would look great in any room.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a really unique design, and like something that will really hold up for a while.
ReplyDeleteI love the modern feel to the bed!

I would love the 2 levels for 3 cats to fight over!
ReplyDeleteI would love the 2 levels for 3 cats to fight over!
ReplyDeleteThis bed sure looks pawsome!
ReplyDeleteI love that it will fit perfectly in the place opposite the fireplace where my kitty likes to rest in winter. :)
ReplyDeleteI like that the bed can hold more than one cat. Having a well-built bed that looks nice is great too.
ReplyDeletePerfect for a 2 cat family like ours! We have a rescue who is 17. He has a hard time getting around, so a 'tower' like this that he could easily get into would be a dream! Thanks for the chance.
ReplyDeletesarahbethtalloaks@gmail.com
I love that part of it is made from recycled bottles. Plus, it just is nice looking.
ReplyDeleteI love the versatility of the piece! It can be placed vertically or horizontally to keep kitty interested in it! AWESOME!
ReplyDeleteTruffles would just LOVE that bed...what a beautiful piece of furniture!
ReplyDeleteI love that it looks like furniture and will fit into our home nicely.
