The breeder's word
The cat loves to lounge in the wicker sphere that reminds it of the feel of a straw bale. It nestles in comfortably to sleep or to observe.
Valérie Mounier — Breeder
The designer's word
Solar cat bed in wicker has a steel structure that revolves around the cat box like a satellite. This brings a form of magic to a contemporary interior.

Description
Solar cat bed in wicker takes the celestial curves of a planet. By placing the kennel in the center of chromed steel tubes made in Italy, the object becomes a real case for the cat. The white wicker is hand woven by French craftsmen. It allows a subtle mixture between tradition and modernity which gives this object a singular aestheticism.
For the base of the product, you can choose to put a velvet bed or nothing. The velvet that covers the bed is made from recycled bottles in Italy. It is a soft, cat-friendly material that the cat can lie on comfortably. The fabric is easy to clean and very durable.
The velvet cushion is handmade by seamstresses in Italy. The velvet used comes from recycled bottles. It is a soft material appreciated by the cat. It is resistant and easy to maintain.
The Solar cat bed in wicker is made of materials that inspire the cat as if it were in its natural habitat. The white wicker reminds the cat of the trees it perches on and the hemp rope makes it want to claw as if on a tree bark.
Each sphere is made by hand. For this reason, each wicker sphere is unique.

Sacha Lakic, a renowned designer, designed the Bogarel cat furniture
The Planetarium range offers a variety of accessories for cats that meet the needs of animals, while beautifying the interior of the house.
Our line of design cat furniture is made by French and Italian craftsmen with 100% eco-responsible and European materials.
The Planetarium collection is the observatory of the Bogarel universe. Designed by the professional British Shorthair breeder Valérie Mounier, from the Clos d'Eugénie cattery, the creations are designed to meet both the needs of the cat and the expectations of the adopter. The celestial allure of each cat tree, cat bed and scratching post is signed Sacha Lakic, famous French designer known for bringing together the beauty and functionality of the object.
All Bogarel cat furniture is both minimalist and modern. The visual lightness of the objects is allowed by the steel structure forged in Italy. Its finesse gives the impression that the cat kennel is floating in space. It brings magic to the contemporary interior.
Each Bogarel product has been created from natural materials, in order to give the cat the feeling of being in nature and to awaken their senses. Wicker resembles straw and wood resembles the trees they climb. The natural hemp rope inspires him enormously to scratch like on tree bark..
The luxury cat trees meet all their needs. The cat can hide from prying eyes: they can observe their space without being seen. Thanks to the chrome steel tubes found on the cat trees and beds for cats in the line, they can overlook their environment. The cat is a tightrope walker: they like the feeling of being suspended in space.
The designer and the breeder have selected materials that are safe for the cat and the dimensions of the products have been designed so that they cannot hurt themselves.
All Bogarel creations have been tested by Clos d'Eugénie cats. Professional breeder Valérie Mounier was able to ensure that each cat furniture is adapted to the cat's needs. The well-being of the cat is guaranteed and the products are resistant, durable and functional.
As part of our eco-responsible approach, we limit stocks. Each Bogarel design cat tree, bed and scratching post is only created when ordered. For all these reasons, the process takes between 5 and 10 weeks until the product is delivered to you.

Sacha Lakic, designer and co-founder of Bogarel
Sacha Lakic has been imagining contemporary furniture designs for over 20 years. Many of his creations are now unavoidable, such as the Bubble Sofa by Roche Bobois or the Gourmet sideboard at the Fauchon hotel.
He is the author of numerous designs, including some for the Hôtel Fauchon Paris (contemporary furniture), Stay Concrete (urban furniture), and Voxan (motorcycles), for example.
His approach is articulated around his passion for modern technologies, movement and speed. We find this attraction for movement and aerodynamics in the Bogarel line of designer furniture for cats, whose shapes are airy and fluid.

How to maintain the Solar cat bed in wicker?
Maintaining the white wicker sphere
Before any action, remember to remove dust from the sphere with a microfiber cloth.
For regular cleaning, we recommend soaking a cotton towel with dishwashing liquid mixed with Lukewarm water. Rinse with a soft damp towel.
To brighten up the wicker sphere, we recommend soaking a cotton towel with baking soda and lemon juice mixed with Lukewarm water. Rinse with a soft damp towel.
If the wicker starts to blacken, you should take action immediately. We recommend soaking a cotton towel with lemon juice, baking soda and white vinegar mixed with Lukewarm water.
To remove scratches, we recommend using a walnut (the fruit in the shell) by removing the shell and rubbing the fruit on the scratch with light pressure.
An aged wicker furniture can creak. To stop the furniture from squeaking, we recommend using parrafin oil: coat the joints with a brush dipped in parrafin oil.
Maintaining chrome steel tubes
For regular cleaning, we recommend soaking a cotton cloth with Marseille soap mixed with lukewarm water. Rinse with a soft damp cloth.
To restore the shine, we recommend soaking a cotton cloth with table oil. Rinse with a soft damp cloth.
Maintaining the velvet bedding and the velvet cushion
In order to remove embedded hair and dust from the velvet, we recommend using a clothes roller.
For regular cleaning of the bedding, we recommend soaking a cotton cloth with liquid Marseille soap mixed with warm water. Rinse with a soft damp cloth and dry immediately with a clean, dry cloth.
CAUTION: Do not rub too vigorously and do not wring out the velvet as this may distort it.
For regular cleaning of the cushion, we recommend that you put it in the washing machine following these instructions: delicate mode, maximum temperature: 30°, do not put in the dryer, bleach is not allowed.
CAUTION: Once out of the washing machine, please do not wring it out. We advise you to dry it flat to preserve it from distorting.
To remove grease stains from velvet, we advise you to spray degreaser on the stain after having absorbed the excess substance with an absorbent paper towel. Wait 1 minute and rub. Finally, rub the area with a cloth soaked in a mixture of water and mild soap to remove any remaining degreaser.
To remove coffee, ketchup, biros or other stains from velvet, we recommend rubbing firmly in a circular motion with a cloth soaked in a solution of water and Marseille soap after having absorbed the excess substance with an absorbent paper towel.
