Thanks so much for your reply! Probably going to go with koala or sleeping duck. I was looking at snooze but 2k seems a bit steep?

Snooze just do saturation advertising. I would also avoid Fantastic furniture - cheap shit and overpriced even at that price point. I did look into them a while ago when looking for a king single for one of my sons, but was seriously underwhelmed.
EDIT: if you have a cat (and you do) then I would avoid a box spring mattress. My parents' cat ripped a hole in the cloth covering the underside of theirs, and used to hide inside among the springs. Until someone sat down on the bed heavily .... there was this almightly screech and the cat ran out screaming. She had a kink in her tail for the rest of her life. I just shudder to think - what if it wasn't her tail that got caught?
