MiaCara Cesto Designer Cat Basket
The Cesto is a round formfleece basket that works as a cat bed or a storage container. It folds flat for packing and holds its shape when open; the soft material gives cats a sense of warmth and enclosure.
Since Brexit, goods shipped from Europe to the UK are subject to standard government import VAT (20% of item value) plus a small DHL customs handling fee, typically £8–12. This is collected by DHL on behalf of HMRC and is not a retailer charge.

There is something quietly satisfying about watching a cat choose their spot and truly settle. With the Cesto, that moment happens quickly: the circular form invites them to turn, tuck, and curl in the way cats always want to, and the gently enclosing walls give them the sense of being held without being confined.
The result is a basket that looks considered and calm in your home, available in four muted colourways, Concrete, Nougat, Black, and Grolive, each chosen to sit quietly within a contemporary interior rather than compete with it.
The felt construction wipes clean easily and resists sagging, so the basket looks as good in three years as it does on day one. MiaCara produces in carefully managed batches, and popular colourways do sell out between restocks, so if the shade works in your space, it is worth securing now.
Why we chose this
MiaCara's Cesto earns its place at Deluxe Pet Co because it is one of the few cat beds that genuinely improves a room rather than simply tolerating its presence in one.
Frequently Asked Questions

Available options - colour: Concrete, Nougat, Black, Grolive.
What is the Cesto Designer Cat Basket made from?
The Cesto is constructed from formfleece felt composed predominantly of recycled PET fibres. This material is moulded rather than sewn, which gives the basket its seamless circular form and allows it to retain its shape under daily use. The surface has a soft, lightly textural finish that is gentle against a cat's coat and resistant to matting over time.
How do I clean and care for the Cesto Designer Cat Basket?
Spot clean the felt surface with a damp cloth and mild detergent as needed. Avoid soaking or machine washing, as prolonged exposure to water may affect the moulded structure. The material naturally resists hair and debris, so light maintenance is usually all that is required between deeper cleans.
Where is the Cesto Designer Cat Basket made?
Designed and made by MiaCara in Cologne, Germany.
