Bow down to the kings who always have a tendency of stealing of doggo’s bed even though they already got their own bed! Kitties really break the perception of how beautiful, graceful, and noble they are by dominating everything, not just bed. Those dogs are too nice to deny and that is the worst consequence ever for them – sleeping anywhere except their brand new bed which was just bought this morning!
These 40 pictures are the most standing out examples of how cats like to be a villain in their own stories, we would never know if they ever felt guilty for claiming dog’s bed intentionally. You’d better add another rug or rustic basket when buying a new bed for your pawfectly generous canine in case you live with a jellybean criminal!

#1 “I’m fine”
Living with both dogs and cats are the greatest experience to explore a lot of sides and behaviors of a particular creature.
“Your home is their territory, and they feel more comfortable in places that smell like them.” – Molly De Voss, a feline training and behavior specialist at Cat Behavior Solutions, she explained about the reason why cats love stealing dog beds that it’s because cats are trying to layer scents with the dog to build a community scent at home.
She also explained that “they’re very good at training us.” For example, “They knock things off the nightstand to wake us—because we typically feed them to stop the behavior.”
Another example is when “they jump up on things because we pick them up” or “meow and get us to talk back.” In fact, “cats are very observant and have great understanding of how to get a reaction from their caretakers.”
#2 “I was able to capture the raw anguish he felt after losing his bed to the void”
Molly said that dogs tend to obey cats because dogs have evolved “a social hierarchy that relies on the hierarchy and order of other members of the family to feel safe.” At the same time, cats “have evolved into a lonely species with no social structure.”
In other words, Molly said, “cats will always be the boss.”
However, cats and dogs often reach acceptable agreements. Molly recommends researching your dog’s breed before considering keeping a cat at home. In addition, it is recommended that the presentation should be carried out slowly. Cats have a long memory and may be afraid of dogs if something terrible happens when they meet.
