The various modules can be assembled and disassembled and moved around to build different configurations. It’s a furniture design that meets the needs of both humans and cats!

Why is it noteworthy?

The innovative configurations you can make using the modules serve as a cat playground. They can jump around, and move enabling them to play together, even if you have multiple cats.

What we dislike

4. Tesla Cybertruck Corrugated Cat House

On the Chinese version of the Tesla website, you may come across a $13 Tesla Cybertruck Corrugated Cat House, and this little invention certainly took the internet by storm. It got everyone wondering if  Tesla has really decided to get into the pet product industry, and is the Cat House just the start of a whole new onslaught of pet products?!

Why is it noteworthy?

The unique-looking cat tray is inspired by the angular shape of Tesla’s electric pickup truck. It measures 56x41x25cm and has a futuristic shape, unlike typical cat trays on the market. It is embedded with thick corrugated paper, and it is designed to be a multifunctional product.

What we like

  • Serves as a multifunctional space for your cat
  • It can support up to 15kgs, so it accommodates cats of different breeds and sizes

What we dislike

  • Essentially it is a simple cardboard box, there’s nothing really cyber/techy about it
  • The real utility of the tray is still unknown, and people can’t decipher whether it is a cat bed or litter box

5. Cat Box

This adorable little box-shaped shelter looks like a shipping container home for cats! It is made using stiff paper boards, building lightweight yet durable boxes for kitties to play in, rest in, paw at, or engage with. It is made using sustainable materials, and the boxes stack up one on top of the other, creating the ultimate haven for cats.

Why is it noteworthy?

The shelter has multiple entry points to elevated vantage points, as well as a hanging toy to keep the kitties entertained. What makes the Cat Box unique, is the use of honeycomb board – a sturdy material that merges a core and honeycomb structure between plywood layers. Using a honeycomb board is an environmentally friendly decision, which also takes into consideration the well-being of our pets.

What we like

  • Features elevated viewpoints in vertical spaces which is quite important for cats

What we dislike

  • There doesn’t seem to be any scope for customization

6. Triangle Toy

Dubbed the Triangle Toy, this unique pet toy entertains your furry friends, while also doubling up as a work of art. This one-of-a-kind pet toy isn’t just about play, it’s also about providing a visual experience that is inspired by the beauty of nature.

Why is it noteworthy?

The Triangle Toy shows how pet products can be made super creative. It functions as a canvas for the motifs of clouds, the sun, and the mountains. The huge mountains are represented by the triangular structure, while the gentle flow of the clouds is shown by the rolling ball.

What we like

  • Seems more like an objet d’art that seamlessly integrates into any space, than a pet toy

What we dislike

  • It’s a concept, so we don’t know how well it will translate into an actual product

7. Choo Choo Console

Named the Choo Choo, this console is a rather unique and innovative creation in the arena of pet-friendly furniture. The Choo Cho console is a dedicated space built from natural materials like wood and cane webbing, and it attempts to build a solid connection between cats and humans.

Why is it noteworthy?

When you look at the console, you are reminded of a bullet train, and it has a contemporary vibe to it that also represents a sense of speed and efficiency. The Choo Choo console perfectly encapsulates the concept of high-speed transportation with the utility of a pet-friendly design.

What we like

  • Features a discreet compartment that hides a litter box for your cat
  • Perfectly marries aesthetics with functionality and practicality

What we dislike

  • Space-consuming design that will occupy a substantial amount of space in your home
  • The interior section of the console looks tough to reach and clean

8. Snowhouse Sofa

The Snowhouse Sofa perfectly captures the pretty image of snow falling daintily and leaving an impression on whatever it falls upon. The Snowhouse Sofa is what a wooden sofa would look like if it experienced some snowfall! And, what makes the furniture design even more unique is that it perfectly caters to the needs of humans and pets.

Why is it noteworthy?

The wooden sofa is covered with cushy white cushions that give the idyllic impression of fallen snow. The edges of the Snowhouse Sofa are rounded, which adds a depth of softness to the furniture piece, while the ends are hollow with empty spaces inside for your pets to lounge about in.

What we like

  • The empty spaces on top function as passages for your cats, where they can play or rest

What we dislike

  • It’s currently a concept, so we don’t know how the actual product will turn out to be
  • The empty spaces seem difficult to reach and clean

9. Lift Stool

Dubbed the Lift Stool, this furniture design has a stunning translucent texture that will completely mesmerize you. It also has two lifted ends that truly make the entire design, and as you peep into the two lifted ends you can see empty space for your cats! It is truly unlike any stool I’ve ever come across.

Why is it noteworthy?

The stool is hollow from within, which makes it an excellent lounging spot for your cat. If your cat doesn’t want to sit inside, you can slide in your favorite books and other souvenirs, allowing you to store them away, concealing them from curious eyes.

What we like

  • Features a second little entrance/exit at the back of the stool, so your pet has an exit strategy in place if they want to sneakily away

What we dislike

  • It could be difficult to get your pet out if they decide to hide before visits to the vet or at feeding times

  • Has a clear window for viewing and breathable meshed walls that provide comfort to your pet while being transported

What we dislike

  • Pets of larger sizes may feel uncomfortable in this design, better suited for smaller cats
