With the economic state being what it is, many pet parents are cutting back on pet spending. (Everywhere our four legged readers are hoping we don't 
mean skimp on the treats!) Our kitties need a warm place to snuggle up during this awful freeze, so we thought we'd share a few fun ideas for alternative or recycled cat beds, and perhaps it will inspire your own creative solutions...
CraftyCrafty posted a geeky cat hideout (notice the converted "mouse") in this converted monitor and ThreadBanger included this charming recycled suitcase cat bed.
You canfind the instructions for this cardboard cat chaise at Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories. Or put a little money back into the economy, and check out the great recycled pet rugs from Emily Kircher at Etsy.
