If your cat is going to be totally happy with an old sweater, no need for fancy pillow,  skip ahead to the cleaning step... but remember cozy pillows keep cats oh so warm, and happy.  I know around here a happy cat is pretty important.

You'll need
Scrap paper, tape, scissors, and a pencil.

Tape the paper
Tape the pieces of paper together to get the approximate width, and depth of the monitor.

Cut off the excess in the front.

Draw the pattern
Once all the paper fits in, you can loosely fold, and draw along the edges of the monitor to create a pillow pattern.

Cut out the pattern
Following the lines you drew, cut out the pattern of the inside of the monitor.  You can place it back in to see if it fits, and/or if you need to make adjustments.
