Super soft and pretty, bought the wrong size so changed mind about where to place it, then went back to buy a smaller size for my entry, it has more mauve in the pattern than I originally noticed, a good thing for my space, cats approve, male immediately laid on it a did funny rolls on the rug., it is more expensive than what I usually spend on rugs as cats barf and I don’t want to worry about tossing out a rug they throw up upon.  It’s very pretty.
