This rug is soooooofffftttt. The description does not make mention of how soft. It is so soft my cats are scared of it. Everytime I walk on it I sigh with joy because your feet just kind of squish into it. That being said it is also very pretty.  Its a little thicker than I anticipated but still a pretty standard rug thickness. Nice light colors. Im interested to see how it will hold up over time because its in a high traffic area.
