3 Reasons Why Your Cat Needs This Bed

Treatment for cats with arthritis is limited. Until Knead Therapeutic Bed.

Arthritis largely goes undiagnosed in cats. From being stoic to attributing behavior changes to age, cats tend to keep their pain to themselves. Our Therapeutic Bed can give cats the relief they haven’t even been asking for.

  • Warmth

    Instant cat-safe temperatures ease joints and muscles using our proprietary, ultra-efficient nano-heating sheet and heat distribution fabric.

  • Comfort

    Spongy orthopedic memory foam provides soothing custom comfort and support, while the hammock shape helps cats feel secure.

  • Calming

    Heat-activated herbal remedies reduce the inflammatory signs of arthritis and help regulate a cat’s behavior.

    My cat loves it!

    Cat approved. He looks for the bed and expects me to move it to the room he is in. He likes it with and without the heat on.

    Life Changing Product

    Knead bed has been an integral part of managing my cats' arthritis. In combination with a prescribed care plan from our veterinarian, this product has been essential in helping my cat feel better.

    The proof has been in her mobility . . .she no longer limps, is eager to play, and has her sweet temperament back!!

    The price is definitely an investment into our cats health; however, after trying every other bed on the market, this one seems to provide the value we have been looking for over the last 14 years.

    I do hope that Knead will soon make replacement covers available for separate purchase. It would be great if these covers could be available in several color options!

    Shocked at how much she loves it

    I have an old almost 19 year old cat. She has been getting Solensia shots and I give her glucosamine for arthritis as well. But decided to also give this a shot. I placed her on it and she immediately settled in. Didn’t need any of the usual tactics. She now is almost sleeping too much lol She is obsessed with this bed both when the heater is on or off. It’s been about a week. I hope the bed itself holds up and no tech issues but from a cat review perspective she’s a fan. I hope I also see general improvement to her mobility from the heat therapy and trying the herbal patches

    Cat is obsessed with this bed. Customer service is superb!

    It took a little over a day for our cat gravitate to the Knead bed. She loves it. As important, the customer support I received when the bed was having issues with staying on was top notch. Very quickly through chatting with customer support, a defective cable was the issue. New cable was sent same day.
