Bought two of these to replace a very old one that was falling apart. Searched for largest dimensions I could find, as have several large cats. These are perfect and that cats LOVE them, both to crawl into, lay on top of and lay on when unzipped as a mat. I may have to get a couple more! Haven't washed yet, but they should wash up fine.

I also bought it because it look soft. One of my rabbit moves any item that is firm to the edge of the pen, to use it as a stepping stool to escape. Also, it being soft, I'm less worried about my pets getting hurt because they love to jump on everything. It's their favorite toy. 6 weeks and counting.

My boy, Nick the Cat, loves it and spends most evenings either diving into it while playing or laying in it to lounge. He's happy, so I'm happy.

Both my cats love and I do mean love it. It keeps them warm in a drafty Chicago winter apartment. It holds their hair. It is now their number one favorite spot.

It's her 'safe' place. I know where to find her.

Arrived on time. Well made. Don't know why anyone would say different. The cats (4 of them) like it better opened flat. That way they can cuddle on it. It crinkles a bit but doesn't scare them at all. All of our cats are rescues and came from rough backgrounds so if any cats would be scared ours would. It stands up very well when zippered shut. I recommend this product.

Cats are independent minded and some will like this design and some will not. There is nothing you can do about it - cats are not dogs and their minds are not programmed to worry what you think. My kitty really likes this simple thing. She loves to sleep inside from day one. But your cat may respond differently, so the only way to know is to try.

My cats love this bed. I put it out for my babies and they weren't too interested. Later that day, I couldn't find my boy cat anywhere in the house until I thought to look inside and he was fast asleep! It's a simple bed but he loves when it zips up into a cozy, warm bed.

Only product I found that my chi chi's Puppies love. I have one that I converted cutting the the zipper out and made it look like a tube. Stitched it together with an upholstery hook and heavy duty thread. They love. It is a nice size. I am ordering another, their favorite hideaway! They play fight over it all the time.. Nice and warm.

Because this cat mat also serves as a tube, I did not hesitate to purchase this item. My 20 pound fat cat found it quite comfortable .... With lots of room to spare! Now that he has his cozy mat... He hasn't been getting under my covers. I also, at times, leave his mat flat, which he finds equally satisfying....it's a product worth investing in.... One last comment... It's stores easily.. Just unzip it, and it's flat, fold it and there you go!!!!!

Bought two, one for each cat. Koko likes to burrow under the covers, or into rolled up or folded blankets, even 'disappeared for hours' burrowing into a rolled up carpet(!!), so she loves it zipped up with a bottom layer of her favorite, old fluffy towel. The other wants it open or only partially zipped. So far, so good. Our neighbor says she's ordering one.
Dan
Both Baby Kitty Jr. and Stella Kitty Jr. LOVE this little casita. They enjoy it in both positions and are often found napping together on it. This is a premium purchase. A real must buy
Shaman Global
She loves it! Due to the technology used inside, during the winter it reflects her body heat back towards her. She stays nice and cozy. It fits in our standard washer great and cleans up nicely. Very well made.
Thomas
This has probably been the biggest success for my cats regarding beds. They will all actually fight for a chance to sleep in this. They love feeling covered all around in it.

This was everything I hoped it would be. At the price I paid it's a wonderful purchase. Basic fabric blanket with that space age foil stuff inside so the cat's heat warms it up and keeps it warm. Zipper allows for a 'tube' which my cat really loves, it's very 'box' like so it attracted her instantly. She's been sleeping in it for a few days now (she still uses her condo and still likes to tuck us in at night) -- very happy!

I ordered two .. one for each of my babies... they love to lay on it...they still have not gotten used to it being zipped up yet. maybe in the winter.. Arizona is warm this time of year! one of them the zipper didn't work. I advised them of the issue and they sent out a replacement in just a few days! PURE CUSTOMER SERVICE! it was just something that got missed by the last person to inspect it at the factory I believe. they made it right, right away! a blessing when two babies who will share but love to have their own things. with them being littermates sharing goes pretty far but this momma gives them the extra they deserve! love this!

It's not so much that I love it as my kitty loves it. I bought this to have in case of power outages this winter, I wanted something that would keep him warm and help hold in the body heat. He was a bit trepidatious at first about crawling in it, I think he thought I might pick it up and take him somewhere but he got used to it and liked to be enclosed. I keep it unzipped a lot at the foot of the bed and it's his favorite place to sleep now. Will buy this for a couple of my kitty owning friends.

My cat loves it,he snuggles in and uses the raised edge like a pillow. I had to put catnip in it so he would try it out the first time,but after that,he uses it now. Of course I have to catnip everything that's his the first time,so that's not a knock on this product.

The kitteh approves of this purchase! Not sure she would because she is very picky and we have purchased several other cushy, comfy things for her to sleep on that she uses for a short time and then won’t go near them again. She LOVES this, I think because she can curl up into it and still see in either direction. Star purchase.

I have two cats. One who is very shy. I now have two of these. One as a pad for their window perch, and this one for my shy cat. Who missed it, when I changed it to the perch. Two happy cats. One happy customer. I am impressed with how well they are made.had another thermal pad that disintegrated in short time.

We have five indoor-only cats and very little carpet in our house, so cold weather usually finds them scrambling for cozy places to snuggle. We have various cat beds scattered throughout the house, but when I bought this one they would literally line-up for their turn. At first I thought maybe it was just because it was something new, but they're still enjoying it so much that I bought two more. One of our larger cats uses the padded edge as a pillow. When it is zipped together as a hut, it is actually long enough for one cat to stretch-out or for one to curl-up at each end. When the zipper is at the top like is shown in the photo it tends to sag in the middle, so I rotated the hut so the zipper is on the bottom and it holds its shape well.

I have five cats and they spread out all over this large house, so, I have cat beds here and there. It usually takes several weeks for someone to decide they like a particular bed, won't even go near it at first. Today, when I received this one, I took it out of the box, zipped it up and left it on my bed for a few minutes. When I came back, Sebastian was already in it. Four hours later, still inside. My husband says I need to order another one right away. Very nice microfiber fabric on the outside, the inside is plush fur. When unzipped, it becomes a large, flat mat. Well, five stars!
DH
Our cats love this. They have one of their own. One likes it tented up for shelter. The other likes it open to sprawl out for a nap. Either way, it's a winner. Very warm and cozy. Washes easily, and like new, once dried.
bobc
Bought it for a feral cat that hangs around my house. Great way to protect it from the cold temperatures in the winter. If used outside like mine, it should be placed somewhere where it's out of the rain. Mine is in a shed with no doors, where the cat made a home.
larocita
Kitty will not sleep inside, but will sleep on it when unzipped. Update: One of kitty's favorite spots to lounge - still on top.
Sammie
I like it as a bed, but I couldn't get the cats in it as a shack. It was smaller (height-wise) than I expected. But it's a nice soft mat for them to rest on and, opened up, it's a very good size. Also a great price!
CL
Very nice. Our 18-year-old cat has arthritis in her hips and we needed a sleep pad that was a bit warmer. The kitty shack arrived nicely packaged. We zipped it up and put it in one of her favorite nap spots. She was apprehensive at first about entering the 'tunnel', so we unzipped it and laid the pad flat. We then put one of her favorite sleep towels on top and she instantly settle down for a very long nap. She spends her evenings on it now. We are planning to purchase two more for other rooms in the house.

Oh yall I bought this now don't laugh for my dog. He is such such a freeze baby, i thought well heck wonder if it keep him warm....oh if you have a dog that is a total freeze baby or a cat, you must buy them this, for this really does keep them warm, i just open it up spread across his bed and cover him with his blanky and he is out for the night. He knows what this is and when i wash and yes it holds up really good to washing to, I have had it for months and months. I keep this in his bed at all times and it does keep the fur off of things as well, you can place this on bed couch anywhere and it does keep hair off other places i noticed that to as well..I am ordering one more for the furniture cause he does sneak up on it lol, but if this is laying there yes he will go right for it....

My Sphynx cat loves this unzipped like a rug in front of the fireplace. She curls up on it and goes to sleep. Sometimes she will get in it if I zip it, but she definitely prefers it flat. She likes the crinkley sounds it makes.

I have one of those cats who rejects things she's offered just for the sake of rejecting them. You think, wow, I'd love this [fill in the blank] if I were a cat - so I spend the money, bring it home, and she turns her nose up and never goes near it. So I was pleasantly surprised (kind of shocked, actually) when I bought this and she took to it immediately. She is spending more time lounging as she gets older and has taken up permanent residence on the couch, where she is starting to make an impression with her hair, which weaves itself in and is difficult to clean off. I was afraid I'd put this in her favorite spot and she'd relocate (been there, done that), but lo and behold, she loves it. She also looks a lot more comfortable and cozy. Note that I don't use it zipped up. She's not a getting-into-things type, but she loves to lay on it. I'm thinking about buying another one.
Richard W.
This is really nicely made and very comfy for cats. I use it for my cat who loves to be carried around. It enables me to carry her in one arm leaving the other free to do things. She is not a fan of the crinkle sound it makes, like a paper bag, however, which is the reason for 4 instead of 5 stars. If your cat loves paper bags, they will probably like this. I would think it would be of great use to hold your cat if you needed to give it medicine, too.
Dathon
My cats really like this bed. I just leave it laying flat on the couch. It's big enough where one cat can lay on each side of it. But sometimes my older cat gets jealous when the younger cat also sits on it and they snicker back and forth. I would just be careful with washing it in a washing machine, since it seems to have some crinkly stuff inside it which may break down when washed. But it's built really well and comfy and my cats love it.
Marsh
Is your cat small? Do they like tight spaces? Do they not mind if their bed makes foil-like noises?If all of the answers to those questions are yes, then this is the cat bed for you.I have a larger cat, who I thought would fit snuggly in this bed. He can barely get his head and front paws inside when it is zipped up. He also does not like the foil-like sound it makes when stepped on or moved, so it's made an excellent cat deterrent for furniture or laps of folks who don't want to touch him.Then 'Why,' you scream into the void 'why rate this as four stars?' Because I know many cats that would be suited well for this bed. My cat is not one of them. If it wasn't so good at deterring him, I might gift it out to a friend, but I've found so many uses, I just can't do that. Guess I'll have to buy them their own.

My cat took a little while to warm up to this, but now she just loves it!!
JMaN23
My cats love this. They mostly use it with it zipped down but they really do prefer laying on the cat mat than the couch. I put the cat mat on one seat and leave the others with out one and they choose the cat mat every time. Every night I found one of them sleeping on it.
Marcy
the bed seems to be well construction, very nice to touch. My arthritic hands had some problems with the very small toothed zipper. I cannot say how well my cat accepts it because she is a semi-feral and will look on it with suspicion for days or weeks before she will accept it. I am sure it will keep her comfey---maybe if I hide it inside of a big box? (I said she is spooky.)
