This rug is beautiful and shipped very quickly. The materials seem to hold up great for our cats that really seem to love clawing at it. We've had it now for several weeks and it still looks perfect even after one of our cats claws it constantly. Matches our decor perfectly. We put a non-slip pad under it in order to keep it from moving around. It does tend to move on the hardwood floors without the pad under. And the pad added some softness to it as well.
