The SnoozePal cat hammock from Cat Above Company is a box in which any cat will happily hang out for hours. Made of heavy-duty cardboard, it encloses a [comfy cat hammock](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/therapeutic-cat-bed) to snuggle in, gives the kitty an [elevated spot off the ground](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cat-tree-house-2), and has porthole windows to let them keep an eye on the neighborhood.

The hammock is easily removable for laundering, and yes, the box is extremely durable and absolutely the cutest thing ever!

The SnoozePal wass a certified hit with a live-in focus group of seven cats and has their “Cat-Seal-of-Approval.” Eco-lovers will be happy to know that the SnoozePal box is also [recyclable](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/batsy-cat-shelter).
