Just an update for anyone that is interested. I took 48 of the crocheted cat beds down to the Humane Society the other day. They were very well received. It made me feel good and hopefully did the cats (or small dogs there) good; they usually sleep on towels. Maybe these will be better, since I don't know of any cat that wouldn't sleep on an afghan!

Very cute and so thoughtful of you to make these for the kitties. This looks like you just made a circle and double crocheted, is that correct? I might just make one for my kitty Ginger, she loves anything soft.

I know there were a lot of happy kitties purring away with these nice beds. Kudos to you for the hours of work and yarn you donated for these animals.

I'm sure the Humane Society was thrilled to receive the pet pads. There is a special place in Heaven for people who give so generously from their heart!

How very generous of you! I too make pet beds and blankets and donate them to several shelters and rescue agencies. The pets love them and you are right - what kitty doesn't love to curl up on an afghan!

If anyone is interested, the pattern for this is free on the web under Crochet with Cris and is known as a 1-skein cat bed. The measure about 12 inches across when finished.

You are a kind and special person for doing this for the shelter kitties (and little tiny doggies, tooo). Thanks for the pattern. I used to crochet, my mom taught me when I was a kid, but it's been well, probably 55 years. I'd be willing to give it a go again, if I could do something like this for the kitties. Big furry hugs to you, Marji

You have a very generous spirit. I think I will take a look at the pattern for my granddaughter who is learning to crochet. Becky
