One Cozy Basket. So Many Little Cat Moments. Meet Their Next Favorite Corner.
From Whompsy
The indoor cat editThe kneading before a nap. The slow stretch after waking up. The search for a little space that feels just right.
Your cat has their own way of getting comfortable. The Whompsy Instinct Basket brings a textured rim and a cozy, rounded resting place together, so they can explore, settle in and curl up on their terms.
It is a simple addition to your home, designed around the small moments you love watching every day.
Here are 10 details to get to know before choosing their basket.

1. A place for paws to get busy
The textured rope rim gives your cat a surface to explore, knead and scratch. It brings a little more variety to the places they spend their day—and puts that texture right beside their resting spot.
2. A bed with something extra
A flat cushion offers somewhere to lie down. This basket adds a woven edge and a rounded center, combining a resting place with interesting texture in one simple design.

3. Room to curl up and settle in
Those little moments say everything: a tucked-in nose, a paw draped over the edge, a long afternoon nap. The gently raised sides create a nest-shaped space for your cat to make their own.
4. A cozy corner that belongs to them
Set the basket in a quiet spot your cat already enjoys. By the window, next to your chair, or beside a familiar resting place—it can become part of the home they already know. Let them approach it in their own time.

5. Cotton and linen, woven by hand
Whompsy’s Instinct Basket is made from natural cotton and linen rope. The visible weave gives it an inviting texture, while the soft structure keeps the look relaxed and comfortable.
6. A little play between naps
The attached rope ball adds another way to investigate the basket. A bat, a pounce, a little kneading—then back to curling up. Supervise play and inspect the rope regularly for wear.
7. An easy step into comfort
A low entry gives your cat an approachable way into their resting space. There is no towering frame or complicated setup: place it on a stable floor and let your cat explore.
8. Made to look at home in your home
Choose Brown, Grey or Green to suit your space. The woven finish works alongside a sofa, a favorite armchair or a sunny window, so your cat’s corner can feel like part of the room.

9. Two sizes for their favorite sleeping position
Choose Small at 16.5 inches wide for cats up to 15 pounds, or Large at 19 inches wide for cats from 15 to 31 pounds. Check the measurements against the space your cat uses when resting before choosing.
10. Give your cat time to decide
Some cats investigate right away; others take a little longer. Whompsy lists a 45-day money-back guarantee for the Instinct Basket. See the product page for current details and return terms, and give your cat a chance to settle in.
