    Have you tried Freecycle?
    I'm sure these are the kind of things people buy and then their cats decide they would prefer to sleep elsewhere. Mine did anyway!
  • I bought a cheap one from T***O and it is useless - completely shapeless even before the cat lay in it. It tips forward and the cat slips off.

  • I'm not sure what your creative/DIY skills are like, but have you considered making one?

    Creativity aside, I did find this one on eBay, but the delivery cost isn't the best unless you can collect ...

    I have recently given mine away on Freecycle because my cats never used it so thats a good idea. Also look on Ebay and Gumtree.

    If you've got the inclination to get up early at the weekend you might strike lucky at a car boot sale.

    Ditto! My cat climbed in his, turned around twice then jumped out. We tried to encourage him back in on many occasions but in the end I saw that someone had posted a request for one on Freecycle and I gave it away.
