I’m somewhat of a nap connoisseur — when you do something for 16 hours a day, it’s important to get it right. After hours of rigorous testing, I have compiled a list of the premier places to snooze. Consult it before your next nap; I promise you won’t regret it.

Yeah, I don’t know what the humans were thinking with this one. For a start, it was clearly marketed as a cat bed. For me, that’s a big no-no. I don’t want it if it’s for me.

Secondly, there’s fruit in it. Sure it’s fuzzy and soft, and that kiwi segment actually makes a pretty comfortable pillow, but it’s simply not my aesthetic. I don’t do cute, and I certainly do not do novelty.
