Are you thinking about a den? An Old English word meaning a (wild) animals' lair; it's usually applied to a secluded place sought by lions.

Pregnant females will seek out a cave, or shrubby area, to give birth and nurture her cubs in their first weeks. She moves the cubs regularly to avoid their scent being picked up by predators, including male lions. After a couple of months or so, she rejoins the pride with her cubs.

Otherwise, big cats don't make what we'd think of as a constructed home, the way some creatures build nests and other types of dwelling.

Domestic cats, on the other hand, usually live in places they call 'the place where I go to find food and laps and sofas, before I head off to the neighbours' places where I also find food and laps and sofas.'

They do tend to adopt special favorite places in the houses they live in, but these are variable and today's beloved nest might be tomorrow's place of no interest.

Housecats frequently adopt more permanent special places outside the house where they live; away from the house, where other cats or animals might visit, they have more need to assert their territory; as well, they can keep regular, comfortable, observation areas from where they can watch potential prey, such as birds.

They do build crude, personal nests when they're about to give birth, but that's as close as they come to making a home.
