They'll pick the high spot. Every time
Cats don't choose beds. They choose vantage points. Somewhere warm, somewhere high, somewhere with a view of the window and the whole room at once β and if you don't give them one, they'll take the bookshelf.

Pick a spot at roughly chest height on you β high enough that your cat feels above the room, low enough that an older cat gets up in one step. Mount it flat against the wall, then press down hard on the nest once before you let your cat near it. If it doesn't shift, it's set. Drywall works, but a stud is better if your cat is on the heavier end.

Height. Floor beds sit in the middle of the traffic your cat is trying to avoid, which is why they get walked past. A perch above eye level is where cats settle into deep sleep. Give it a week β most cats claim it within a few days, and the 30-night trial covers you if yours doesn't.

The cushion lifts straight out β hand wash cool, air dry, drop it back in. The woven nest takes a vacuum brush attachment, or a damp cloth for spots. Don't soak the weave.

Fair question, and we'd rather answer it honestly than hide it.
Carriers charge by dimensional weight β how much space a box takes up, not what it weighs on a scale. The ChillCat nest is handwoven and holds a deep rounded shape, so it ships in a large carton even though it's light. $29.99 is close to what it actually costs us to get it to your door protected.
We could have priced the bed at $99.99 and called shipping "free." A lot of stores do. We'd rather show you the real breakdown. We're a small brand, and we're working with our packaging partner on a compressed carton β when that cost drops, this rate drops with it.
