16 Best Cat Beds For Maine Coons

The Maine Coon is larger than the usual cat, weighing up to 20 pounds, and has distinct bedding requirements than other felines.

Because of their size, not all cat beds will fit them. The purrfect bed for your pet is also determined by personal preferences, such as the positions in which they prefer to sleep.

The cost varies as well, as you may get a cheap dollar store cat bed or spend over a hundred dollars on a beautiful designer cat bed. To be honest, your cat might not notice the difference if they're comfy.

BestForPets (bestforpets.org) has chosen the best cat beds for Maine Coons based on size and price, and they provide luxurious support when they're not curled on your lap.

Southwest Kilim Cooling Gel Chaise Pet Bed by FurHaven – Premium Choice
 

  • Medium Dimensions: 30″ x 20″ x 6.25″
  • Orthopedic cooling mattress type
  • Price: High

Because of their lengthy hair, Maine Coons may require some cooling assistance in warmer locations or throughout the summer months.

FurHaven’s deluxe chaise bed does the trick by offering your pet with many layers of orthopedic and cooling foam for a comfortable slumber that won’t leave them sweating.

It comes in three sizes, but the medium is ideal for a Maine Coon. There are three other patterns to pick from as well. On two corners, the bolsters make a 90° angle, providing a comfy area for your Maine coon to rest their head.

The faux fur cover can be machine washed. The only drawback to this mattress bed is that it is the most expensive option on our list. This is also not a good option for a cat who likes to snuggle up in a circle or get warm under covers.

Pros

  • It is available in three distinct sizes and patterns.
  • Machine-washable removable cover
  • Ideal for cats who like to sprawl, have joint problems, or get hot easily.

Cons

  • Expensive
  • Perhaps not the ideal option for cats who want to curl up under covers or curl into a ball.

 

Perfect Comfort Orthopedic Sofa Cat + Dog Bed FurHaven Velvet Waves
 

  • Medium Dimensions: 30″ x 20″ x 7″
  • Sofa bed type
  • Price: Moderate-high

With FurHaven’s orthopedic sofa bed, your Maine Coon can be the king or queen of their own couch. There are three colors and six sizes to pick from, but the medium size is ideal if your cat likes to take up a lot of area while napping.

The orthopedic foam provides joint support and allows them to settle into something comfortable. While this couch bed is somewhat more expensive than some of the other goods we tested, your Maine coon will remind you that it’s worth it.

Furthermore, the removable cover is machine-washable, so this bed should last for many naps to come.

Pros

  • Cover is removable and machine-washable.
  • While napping, your cat might take up a lot of space on the sofa bed.
  • Several size and color variations are available.

Cons

  • Expensive

 

The Original Shag Fur Donut Cuddler Cat + Dog Bed by Best Friends by Sheri
 

  • Small size: 23″ x 23″ x 7″
  • Bed Style: Donut/Circle
  • Price: Average

The doughnut comes in five different sizes to fit your Maine Coon and nine different faux shag fur colors to match your decor.

With its lengthy faux fur that will warmly recall your cat of their mother, the vegan plushy material comforts your cat. We appreciate that the entire bed is machine washable and dryer safe, including the water-resistant, nylon bottom.

The pricing is also reasonable when compared to the other products on this list. We can’t think of anything negative to say about this bed, but your cat could object to the donut design if they want to lie flat.

You could always satisfy their needs by purchasing a larger size, but some cats may benefit from a different bed.

Pros

  • There are five sizes and nine colors available.
  • Vegan faux fur is cozy.
  • Some cats enjoy the donut design.
  • Reasonably priced
  • Fully machine washable
  • Bottom is water-resistant

Cons

  • Not ideal for cats who like to sprawl.

 

Hepper Nest Mattress
 

  • Dimensions: 5″W x 17.5″D x 5.75″H bowl (real cat bed diameter is 15″).
  • Type: Bowl/Saucer
  • Price: Moderate-High

For utmost luxury, your Maine Coon will prefer to curl up in our premium pick, the Hepper Nest Bed. This bowl-shaped bed is available in four different colors and has a removable lining that can be washed at your leisure.

This bed is supported by a flexible molded “foam bowl.” Unfortunately, the lining is the only element that can be machine washed, while the foam can be spot cleaned.

The Hepper Nest Bed is priced slightly higher than our other offerings, but we believe the great quality is worth the extra money.

While we have no complaints about this product, your Maine Coon may not like it if they like to sprawl when they sleep because the bowl design does not enable them to spread out as much as other patterns.

We’ve admired Hepper for many years and decided to take a controlling ownership interest in order to benefit from this funky cat company’s amazing ideas!

Pros

  • There are four color options.
  • The machine-washable removable liner
  • The bowl design appeals to some cats.
  • High-quality

Cons

  • The foam component can only be cleaned on the spot.
  • Not suitable for cats who want to stretch out.
  • In comparison to other listings, it is moderately priced.

 

Hepper Pod Mattress
 

  • Overall dimensions: 5″ x 17″ x 18.5″ (19″ x 15″ x 11″ bed)
  • Type: Burrow/Canopy
  • Price: High

The Hepper Pod Bed comes in one size and two colors: brown and gray. The contemporary design would complement a slick, minimalist environment and is intended to appeal to cats who want to hide away while napping. The bed has a soft, removable, machine-washable liner.

Unfortunately, it is one of the more expensive options on our list, but we believe the unique design justifies the price. The bed itself is less than 20″ long, but it’s rated for cats weighing up to 25 pounds, so make sure to measure your cat before purchasing to ensure it’s the right size for your Maine coon.

We’ve admired Hepper for many years and decided to take a controlling ownership interest in order to benefit from this funky cat company’s amazing ideas!

Pros

  • Modern, minimalist style
  • Cover is removable and machine-washable.
  • It is available in two hues.

Cons

  • Expensive
  • Some Maine coons may find it too small.
  • There is only one size available.

Buyer's Guide: Choosing the Best Maine Coons Cat Bed

When determining the ideal option for your Maine Coon, you must first evaluate your pet’s specific requirements, such as:

Positions for Sleeping

Does your cat like to curl up? Perhaps a donut bed would be appropriate for them. Do they occupy every possible square inch of the sofa, or do you discover them in the most unusual positions? Perhaps a mattress bed would be better for them.

Size

Maine coons are larger cats that can weigh 20 pounds or more, but each cat is unique. Before you buy, be sure your cat will fit!

Washable

Every dog has his or her day, but cats have as well. If your kitten is prone to accidents, you should look for a washable bed.

Temperature

Do you live in a hot climate where your long-haired cat struggles to cool off? You should consider getting a cooling mattress.

Or do you live in a chilly climate where people are constantly battling to keep warm? A heated or plush burrow bed would be ideal.

Price

Perhaps the budget does not now include funding for a three-figure bed. That’s OK. We are content as long as your kitty is.

Conclusion

The FurHaven Southwest Kilim Cooling Gel Deluxe Chaise Dog + Cat Bed is BestForPets‘ (bestforpets.org) top pick because its flexible foam bowl design is ideal for snugglers and the machine-washable fabric cover.

Finally, FurHaven makes a Comfort Orthopedic Sofa, which is ideal for cats who have joint problems or if your Maine coon is a sprawler.

The other products in the list of best cat beds for Maine Coons we looked at are all fantastic options, but the ideal one for you and your cat is up to you.
