Our pets do not think of themselves as pets. They think of themselves as family, and most of us are inclined to agree. They greet us at the door, claim the best spot on the sofa, and somehow end up at the centre of the household. So when it comes to where they sleep, eat, and keep their bits and pieces, it feels right that those things should be as considered as anything else in the home.
That is the thinking behind our pet range. We are big animal lovers here at Wovenhill, and we have always felt that a pet's bed shouldn't be an eyesore shoved in the corner. It can be beautiful, handcrafted, and built to last, sitting comfortably alongside the rest of your furniture rather than clashing with it. Here is a look at the range and how to choose the right pieces for your four-legged companion.
Choosing the right bed
A good bed is the foundation of the range, and the best one for your pet depends on their size, their sleeping style, and the room it will live in.
For dogs who like to curl up with their back against something solid, a raised-sided design offers a real sense of security. The Luxury Rattan Dog Sofa Bed is our most indulgent option, a proper little piece of furniture with woven sides and a soft cushion that would look at home in any living room. It comes in a medium size for larger breeds and a small size for more compact companions, so you can match it to your dog rather than hoping they grow into it.
If you prefer a lower, more open shape that suits both dogs and cats, the Kubu Rattan Oval Pet Bed and the Kubu Rattan Rectangular Pet Bed are lovely, versatile choices. The rectangular design in particular has become a firm favourite, with dozens of happy reviews, and its clean lines tuck neatly against a wall or beside your own bed. The natural grey Kubu finish is quietly elegant and blends into almost any colour scheme, which is part of why these pieces sit so easily in a family home.
A quick word on sizing: always measure your pet from nose to tail while they are lying down in their favourite stretched-out position, then allow a little extra room so they can shift and settle. A bed that is slightly too generous is always better than one they cannot quite fit into.
A tidy spot for toys and clutter
If you share your home with a pet, you will know how quickly their belongings multiply. Chew toys, tennis balls, spare leads, the squeaky thing they love and you have learned to tolerate. Left loose, it all ends up underfoot.
Our Paw Print Cut Out Toy Storage Box gives everything a home, with a charming paw print detail cut into the front that makes it clear whose things live inside. It keeps the living room looking calm and means toys are gathered in one place rather than scattered across three rooms. Many pets quickly learn where their things belong too, which is a small but satisfying win. You will find more options like it in our pet storage and accessories collection.
Mealtimes made neater
Feeding time is another everyday moment that a thoughtful piece can improve. Bowls that slide across the floor, splashes of water, and the general clutter of feeding gear can make a tidy kitchen feel less so.
The Pet Feeding Station with Stainless Steel Bowls brings a bit of order to it all. The woven surround holds two removable stainless steel bowls at a comfortable height, keeping food and water together in one neat spot. The steel bowls lift out easily for washing, which makes daily cleaning quick, and the raised design can be gentler on your pet's neck and posture as they eat. Explore the full feeding stations range to find the right fit for your kitchen.
Why woven works so well for pets
There is a practical reason natural woven materials suit pet furniture so well, beyond the way they look. Handwoven rattan and Kubu are sturdy and breathable, allowing air to circulate around your pet as they sleep rather than trapping heat the way some solid or plastic beds can. They are naturally hard-wearing, standing up to the daily business of being a much-loved animal's favourite resting place.
They also age gracefully. A quality woven bed does not look tired after a season the way a cheap fabric one often does. With a little care, it becomes part of the furniture in the truest sense, and a piece you are happy to have on show.
Keeping everything fresh
Looking after woven pet pieces is straightforward. Remove and wash any cushion covers according to their care label, and give the basketware itself an occasional vacuum on a low setting to lift out hair and debris from the weave. A wipe with a barely damp cloth deals with any marks, and you should always let the piece dry fully before your pet settles back in. That little routine keeps everything hygienic and looking its best.
Treat them to the best
Our pets ask for very little and give us a great deal in return. A comfortable, handsome place to sleep, a tidy home for their toys, and a calm spot to eat are small luxuries that make their days, and yours, a little better.
