Based on the information provided, it's clear that the cat started in its bed and then moved to its food dish, which is located to the left (a positive position). In this context, the options can be narrowed down:

  1. The cat began its journey in bed and ended its journey 5 meters to the left of its bed. (Valid)
  2. The cat began its journey in bed and ended its 10 meters to the right of its bed. (Invalid, as it cannot be both in bed and also be to the right of it, considering it started to the left at its food dish.)
  3. The cat began its journey at its food dish and ended its journey 10 meters to the right of its bed. (Invalid, as it suggests starting at the dish places it left of the bed and ending 10 meters right, thus not returning to bed.)
  4. The cat began its journey at its food dish and ended its journey 10 meters to the left of its bed. (Invalid, as it suggests ending to the left of the bed without mentioning starting in bed.)

Thus, the only logically valid option is:
The cat began its journey in bed and ended its journey 5 meters to the left of its bed.
