For a cat that moves around a lot, the best bet is to get two or three different types of beds placed in their favorite spots. My American Shorthair loves a soft, donut-shaped bed on the couch for afternoon naps, but she also uses a flat, padded mat near the window for sunbathing and a covered cave bed in the corner of the bedroom for privacy at night. The key is to offer variety-something cozy and enclosed, something open for stretching, and maybe a heated pad for colder months-so they always have a comfortable option wherever they decide to curl up.

Go with multiple lightweight, modular beds rather than one "perfect" option. I'd map out their sleep spots over a week - typically 3-4 zones like a sunny windowsill, a couch corner, and near a heat vent. Get self-warming mats for each zone; they're thin, portable, and don't scream "bed" so the cat can still rotate without feeling locked in. For the base algorithm: observe patterns, deploy mats, and adjust placement if they skip a spot for two days straight.
