I got Harley a bed when he was little, and he wouldn't use it - so we returned it. He'd rather sleep on the floor, or the couch/chair.
I don't think its bad for them to sleep on the floor - I would keep the bed out, so she can use it when she wants to - maybe she just has to get used to it
Good luck!

Try some catnip. That's how I got my girls to sleep on their cat tree. I covered it with catnip. Someone makes these fun boogie mats that you can unzip and stash a bunch of catnip in- you can drape one across the bed and hopefully that will attract the kitty. Catnip spray may help too- but buy some catnip.
Edited to say-
Actually, I don't know if your kitten is over 6 months- if she isn't she probably won't be into catnip yet so disregard this advice. Annabelle was an early catnip lover (a few months old), but Isabelle wasn't interested until she was over a year old.
