My cats love a bed with high, comfortable sides, and this bed is their favorite one yet. It's plush but still very resilient, and the shape of the bedding has held up well against all the laying and rolling. The feature I love best is that it's unbelievably easy to clean. I took a vacuum hose to the canvas and was nearly able to remove all the cat hair in just a few minutes. I haven't had occasion to wash it yet, but both the outside and inside covers zip off for quick removal. If my other West Paw beds are any indicator, I'm confident this bed will come out of the dryer looking as good as it did the day it arrived. I got the small sized bed, which is big enough to fit even my fat 18 lb cat. Worth every penny!
