What a fantastic product

Just want to say thank you for the DeskNest. The quality is actually far higher than I thought it would be. I really hope this takes off for you and it's in every pet store.

— Tom M.

Thanks for a good idea!

Before, one of our cats Leah, loved to lay on the table, usually right on the keyboard or the mousepad.  Now, she's taken quickly to the bed and lays there all the time!

— Dustin B.

Soo easy to setup

I just received the desk bed a few days ago & my kitty loves it! She usually sleeps on the way top of her cat tree (super shy girl) so I put it on my vanity next to my bed & she’s already obsessed.

— Carrie S.

This bed is a game- changer

I can finally work in peace with my kitty out of the way. I love being able to work uninterrupted with my cat purring in his Desk Nest, NOT on my keyboard..

— KAYLA B.

Exceeded expectations

desk.

Dream come true

It's like someone answered all of my hopes and dreams I didn't know I had! I currently have a blanket as a cat bed on my desk and it takes up half of my space.

— Suzannah H.

Jennie loved it

We got our Desk Nest today and our cat, Jennie, really likes it! It usually takes about 2 weeks for her to get used to a new bed before using it, but I put her in it today and she fell asleep.

— Ann O.

We got 2 Desk Nest beds but have 3 cats and all 3 want to be in them. I am thinking about getting a larger desk and a 3rd bed.

Why a Desk-Mounted Cat Bed Works Better

Traditional cat beds, cat trees, and floor perches often place your cat too far away from where you work. Desk Nest was specifically designed to solve the work-from-home cat problem by creating a comfortable cat bed attached to your desk.

Engineered for Stability and Flexibility

Every detail of Desk Nest is designed for strength, adaptability, and minimal desk space. With full rotation, height adjustment, solid metal construction, and a stable mounting system, the bed integrates seamlessly into your workspace.

360° Rotation & Adjustable Height

Desk Nest offers complete adaptability to suit your space, featuring a bed that can spin a full 360° around the post and adjusts vertically. With a base smaller than 4.5 inches (11 cm), it occupies minimal desk space.

The Bed Holds Up to 25 lbs

Feel secure knowing that your cat is safe. All structural components of Desk Nest are made of metal and the bed holds up to 25 lbs (11.3 kg).

No desk modifications or drilling are required.
