Give your cat one cozy space for hiding, chasing, lounging and napping. This foldable donut cat tunnel bed combines a circular play tunnel with a soft centre cushion, creating a 2-in-1 indoor enrichment zone for cats that love tunnels, hideouts and comfortable resting spots.
Use it as a play tunnel during active zoomies, a hideaway when your cat wants privacy, or a soft lounge bed for everyday naps. The foldable design also makes it easier to store when you need more floor space.
Why Cats Love Donut Tunnel Beds
Cats are naturally drawn to enclosed spaces, curved tunnels and hidden resting spots. A donut tunnel gives them a space to crawl through, ambush toys, hide from view, and rest in the centre when playtime is over.
This design supports both sides of indoor cat life: short bursts of energetic play and long periods of comfortable sleep.

Why the Wide Tunnel Matters
Some cat tunnels are too narrow for larger cats, fluffy cats, or cats that prefer more room to turn around. This donut tunnel has an approximate 26cm tunnel diameter, giving cats more space to crawl through comfortably.
If your cat is especially large, very long-bodied, or cautious in enclosed spaces, introduce the tunnel slowly and let them explore without pressure.
How to Introduce the Tunnel Bed
- Place the tunnel in a quiet open area where your cat already feels safe.
- Let your cat sniff and inspect it without forcing them inside.
- Add a familiar blanket, toy or treat near the entrance.
- Use a wand toy or rolling toy to encourage gentle play around the tunnel.
- Leave the centre cushion available as a resting spot.
- Move the tunnel gradually if you want it in a different room.
Some cats explore new furniture immediately, while others need a few days. Let your cat decide the pace.
Play and Enrichment Tips
- Use a wand toy around the tunnel openings to encourage stalking and pouncing.
- Roll a soft ball through the tunnel for chase play.
- Place treats near the entrance for cautious cats.
- Rotate the tunnel location to refresh interest.
- Pair it with a window hammock, rolling toy, or treat puzzle for a fuller indoor setup.
- Supervise early use if your cat likes to chew fabric or zippers.

- Unzip removable sections before washing, where applicable.

What size cat tunnel is best for large cats?

How do you wash a foldable cat tunnel?

Is this tunnel suitable for kittens?
