Macrame cat hammock FAQ

Which size cat hammock do I need?

Measure your cat curled up. Small and relaxed cats fit the 30 cm or 40 cm round baskets; larger cats and cats that stretch out are better in the 45 cm basket or the 50 × 30 cm wide bed.

Is hanging hardware included?

The 30 cm hammock comes with a metal hanging ring and the round 40/45 cm hammock with a hanging loop. A ceiling hook is not included with any hammock — use a hook or bracket fixed into a joist or beam and rated for your cat's weight.

How do I hang a cat hammock safely?

Fix the hook into a ceiling joist or solid beam rather than plasterboard alone, hang the bed at a height your cat can reach, and check the hook and knots regularly. Our guide how to hang a macrame cat hammock safely walks through each step.

How do I clean a macrame cat bed?

Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, or hand wash in cold water if needed, then air dry flat or hanging. Do not machine wash or tumble dry the macrame. The monstera cushion cover of the bundle can be machine washed at 30°C.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a macrame cat hammock?

A macrame cat hammock is a hanging cat bed knotted from natural cotton cord, suspended from the ceiling on a loop. It gives a cat a cozy elevated resting spot while doubling as a boho decor piece.

How much weight can a hanging cat hammock hold?

These hammocks are woven from 100% natural cotton cord and suit cats of most breeds and sizes. Always hang the ceiling loop from a hook anchored into a joist or a proper anchor rated above your cat's weight, never into bare drywall.

How do I hang a macrame cat hammock?

Each hammock ships with a ready-to-hang ceiling loop that fits any standard hook. Fix the hook into a ceiling joist or suitable anchor, slip the loop over it, and the hammock is ready in seconds.

Will my cat actually use it?

Cats are drawn to elevated, enclosed resting spots, and the swaying motion plus tassel toys make these hammocks appealing. Placing it in a warm, quiet corner near a window helps a hesitant cat settle in.

How do I clean a cotton cat hammock?

Spot-clean by hand with a barely damp cloth and let it air-dry fully. Avoid machine washing, which can distort the knotwork and fringe of the natural cotton cord.
