According to Sweden’s first cat psychologist Susanne Hellman Holmström, there are 10 things that cats need to be happy and all of them can be satisfied by The Cat Flat interior designer Eleonor Moschevitz created for 24Storage. The structure provides plenty of opportunities for cats to scratch, clean their fur, hide, play, sleep, hunt, spy and more, as these all help to keep indoor cats at their happiest.
When closed, the wooden storage cabinet resembles any other kind of furniture design within the home, yet on the inside it's fashioned as a living room of sorts for cats. The cat-friendly furniture design has holes that cats can easily get in and out of on their own, plus plenty of stimulating design features.
