At first Maddie was hesitent about the new bed but once I dropped one of her old blankets over the top she curled right up into a corner.  While the bed is certainly on the larger side for her (she is 65 lbs)   since she likes to curl up into a tiny ball, once summer hits and after long hikes she likes to stretch out so I am sure the space will be good.  The best thing thus far about the bed is that Maddie used to always want to jump up into our bed (when we weren't looking and left the bedroom door open) however now when I search the house for her I find her on her Casper.
