It’s not really an exaggeration to say that people go mad for hanging egg chairs.
As many shoppers and interiors enthusiasts will know, whether it be Aldi’s Rattan Hanging EggChair – which has been seen in the homes of cleaning influencer Mrs Hinch and Stacey Solomon, and is no doubt one of the budget supermarket chain’s best-selling items – or in this case, B&M’s equally-popular version Siena Hanging Egg Chair, these unique chairs are near impossible to get your hands on and often end up selling out, both online and in store.
When they do come back in stock, they usually get snapped up within minutes too, which is proven by the fact that the Siena Hanging Egg Chair is out-of-stock on the B&M website.
But if you’ve not had much luck in securing the best seat in the house for yourself before, at least now your cat can, as B&M as has today announced that it’s launching a Rattan Effect Pet Egg Chair.
Teasing the launch of the new feline egg chair in a post of its social media accounts this morning, B&M said: “You’re all fans of our sell-out egg chair, so now we’ve launched a new version…. for cats.

“This rattan effect egg chair is in stores soon (some lucky people have already picked one up) so don’t miss out.”
The chair is already proving popular with budget shoppers online, having racked up thousands of interactions and comments in only a few hours after being shared on social media, so it looks like plenty of people are looking to treat their feline friends this Christmas.

The Rattan Effect Pet Egg Chair will only set you back £55.
B&M’s cat egg chair comes after also Aldi released a feline version of its viral egg chair all the way back in May.
The chair doesn’t currently appear to be listed on B&M’s website as of yet, and according to the retailer, hasn’t actually launched in store either even though some people have already got their hands on it, so you’ll need to keep your eyes peeled.
Don’t forget to be on the look-out on the B&M website, in your local branch, and also keep an eye on social media for more updates.

Jane Sharrocks, Store Director at Selfridges Manchester Exchange Square said: “We’re thrilled to welcome the Jellycat General Store to Selfridges Exchange Square.
“We know our customers are huge Jellycat fans so we can’t wait to bring this iconic destination to our store.
“This launch means that our customers can purchase the characters from the exclusive Fish & Chips collection for the first time outside of Selfridges London which is so exciting.
“With so many Jellycat favourites, it’s going to be hard to choose which ones to take home!”
The new Jellycat store is open today – Monday 17 February – at Selfridges Manchester Exchange Square.
Sephora’s arrival in Manchester last year triggered huge queues of shoppers eager to browse the retailer’s collection of exclusive, viral and classic beauty products.
This will be the 10th UK store for the brand, with more to come in Sheffield and Liverpool in 2025.
Inside Sephora, shoppers are able to browse in-person for brands that are often hard to come by in the UK, including exclusive-to-Sephora brands like Makeup by Mario, Haus Labs by Lady Gaga, and Topicals, plus Glossier and Selena Gomez’s Rare beauty.
The store is also famed for its huge selection of ‘minis’, allowing beauty enthusiasts to try out the hottest products on the market for less.

There’ll be a Beauty Hub in store, offering full glam, facials, hair styling, and brows by Benefit Cosmetics.
Sarah Boyd, Managing Director, Sephora UK, said: “Manchester showed us phenomenal support when we opened our first store in the region, which blew away all our expectations.
“We are thrilled bringing a second beauty playground to our customers in this vibrant and culturally rich city, allowing us to reach even more shoppers with a city centre location at Arndale.
“We already know there is strong appetite from beauty enthusiasts in Manchester as we saw over 2000 eager customers queue on our opening day last year, and we look forward to recreating the same energy at Arndale and to continue providing an unparalleled beauty experience like no other.”
