AIBU to think a duvet cover with a cat design shouldn't be hard to find?!

69 replies

DD wants a duvet cover with cats on it. She likes colourful things and has grown out of pink, pretty much. (Thank fuck!)

You wouldn't think it'd be that hard to find, would you?

But cats don't seem to be in fashion any more!

There's no end of unicorns, sloths, llamas, pugs etc. But I can't find many cat duvet covers - except for subtle designs she won't be keen on or ones that cost about £60 for a single!

This feels like an impossible task! Can anyone help?!

Eh? "cat duvet cover" brings up loads. I wouldn't call them all subtle.

What design do you want?

Is Shein trustworthy? Aren't they one of those overseas shops that send you really cheap stuff that's nothing like the image, or it comes weeks later? Or have I got them confused with somewhere else?

She'd probably really love that!

This is for my mum to get her for Christmas, not sure how I'll convince my mum to trust that website, it looks like a gambling den or something!

A definite maybe, thank you :)

I love that and I'd seen it already- but that's the £60 one Shock. £62.46 in fact.

The £9.46 refers to a single pillow case!
