Here's the finished product. Not only did the felting give me trouble, but none of my 3 cats even want to use it. See how Scooter is lying outside the bed??

I'm not surprised you didn't have the best result with felting. I have some of that yarn, and like it as is but it's only 50% wool, which means it only 50% felts. Bummer. Your kitty bed is cute anyway though :) Maybe they'll get used to it...
I bet one of these days you will find a cat sleeping in their custom made bed. I'm thinking about making one for my Pomeranian.
I use size 10.5 or 11 needles with worsted weight yarns for felting. But all I've felted with is 100% wool.
