Often times when households have dogs and cats, the pets want to sleep alongside their owners and this homemade bed by Reddit user Robdogbird created an ideal solution for this problem with a homemade bed design. He created an 11-foot bed to accommodate him, his girlfriend and the seven pets they collectively own.
Having pets climb into your bed at night can make the space unbearably tight and hard to get a good night's rest in. Robdogbird's solution to this wasn't to kick his pets out of bed, but instead to make a bigger bed so that everyone could fit in. The bed design features a full foam large mattress complete with storage units underneath to maximize on space use. The bed fits a king sheet and a full sheet so the couple looks for matching sheet sets.
