Purroom cat furniture, bowls and the Chick range
Purroom builds almost everything around two characters — the Chick and the Pudding — and then makes the whole household in that style: scratchers, beds, hammocks, ceramic bowls, feeding mats, catnip toys, and a small run of homewares for the owner.
The range falls into four groups. Cardboard scratchers (the Express Box, Fortune Cat, Tent, Cat House and Chaise Lounge) are consumable — they shed and get replaced. Sisal scratchers last longer but win over fewer cats. Beds run from a flat sleeping mat through to fully enclosed plush dens. Ceramic bowls are elevated and tilted, heavy enough to stay put and heavy enough to chip if dropped.
Choosing a scratcher. This is the decision most people get wrong. Watch what your cat already destroys. If it claws the carpet or a rug, buy a horizontal scratcher — the Fortune Cat box or a sisal mat. If it goes up the side of the lounge or a door frame, buy the L-shaped Wall Scratcher Board, because a flat mat will not redirect that habit. If it wants somewhere to hide as well as scratch, the Tent and the Cat Houses do both jobs.
Choosing a bed. Enclosed beds suit cats that sleep tucked into corners; a cat that sprawls in the middle of the floor will ignore one. The Chick enclosed bed is 41 x 41 x 35cm with a 17cm entrance, which is snug for a cat much over about 5kg.
Note that part of the Purroom range is labelled “For Human” by the brand — the ceramic mug, coffee cup, rice bowl and canvas tote bags are homewares and accessories for the owner, not pet products. They are listed as such.
