Our cat absolutely ADORES this bed!! It gives him a respite during warm weather when he likes to still be outside to "sniff" the air, and spectate birds. When he is done "exploring" the yard, he will groom in the bed and take a cat nap (hehe). He loves having *his* place in the yard, away from everyone else but close enough to the action to spectate (and ask for pets). Plenty of room so he can adjust depending on where the sun hit. Such a great purchase!!
