The only thing that can compete with the window bed for Miss Meow's attention is my lap with a heated throw rug. When I first put it up she didn't use it though, I eventually figured out she wasn't confident with the path to climb up to it as it involved an initial jump up she didn't like. I got her some pet steps to make it easier and she's up on the bed half the day now.

We had an oops where one fell down. Startled kitty is justifiably cautious.
