Cats!

So my (gunslinger) Jake is turning 13 years in a couple months and he's definitely leaning toward hanging up his guns [read: no bodies dropped at my feet lately] and so I thought I'd be a good, kind kitty mummy and buy him and his shadow Stanlee (who incidentally only shadows him because they can't stand each other and need to know where the other one is at all times because of the sudden... pounce factor) a new soft, fleecy doughnut-shaped pet bed.

Well shiit.... they have both avoided them like the plague, like literally social friggen distancing from them as though they were covered in COVID.
One of them even hissed at me when I tried to trick them into the bed with Temptations biscuits. (these are like kitty drugs, I swear)

Cats... sigh.
My one has her moments. As a rescue, I don't think she even had a bed, let alone toys, and I'm her third owner; I think she'd been either locked in or locked out, and was scared a lot, didn't know what love and affection were like. Anyway, I got her one bed, she wouldn't use it, and it ended up in a charity shop, then I got her this lovely bed, black and white patterned, like cow patterned, she stuck one paw in it... and rejected it straightaway. I ended up giving it away to a neighbour who welcomed it for his own kitty, who used it lots, and so far as I know, the bed ended up donated to someone else.

Like Georgie's boat, I know not where the bed has since ended up.
