My cat is 12 lbs. Would this be too small for him? How cushiony is it?

Cats like to curl up, so he'll probably fit. It's not very cushiony at all, and you can feel the wires a bit. However, the older cat of the house loves it and can't stop sleeping in it, while the kitten avoided it and its strange crinkly noise from the first day. It's a hit or miss.

Well, my largest cat is 8 lbs and fits. It is 17" in diameter. I would try to measure cat when curled up asleep. The base isn't real cushiony. Just a heating pad covered with fabric. The ring is soft foam. I'd bet your cat would figure out a way to make it work even if he/she hangs over a bit. I would try it and if it doesn't work, give it to a friend with a smaller cat. The larger beds on amazon are an option but they are double or more the price.

One of our cats is 14lbs, he uses it. Inside diameter is about 12". It has a foam pad - not real thick, but adequate.

I find it cushiony enough when I press on it. It has something in it kinda spongey; it's not flat. I went out and put my 12 pound cat on it but she didn't lay down...but just eyeballing it there's plenty of room looking at her and imagining her curled up. My other cats sleeping it are 10 and 11 pounds. The inside of the bed measures 12" so any overflow would be up against or on the rim a bit. I think it's fine.

No, it would be fine. Our cats are both 10 pounds and they curl up in it. A couple of extra pounds wouldn't make a difference. I'd say it's medium cushy. Just FYI, one of our cats lives in it, the other won't touch it even though we got one for each of them.

My Maine Coon is +/- 12 pounds and is very happy with the heated pad. As I mentioned before, the pad is surrounded by a padded circle (sort of like a surround pillow). I was able to snip open the seam to the pillow and was easily able to remove about half the padding. If needed, I could remove it all. The pad has a fleece cover which I wasn't sure Mr. Picky would like so I put a towel over it. Now that he's used to and likes the heat, I've removed the towel and he continues to enjoy it. There are two 1/2' pieces of foam with the pad plus I've got mine on a seat cushion. Both the foam pads and the heating pad itself are easily removed from the cover. Hope this helps. mj My Maine Coon is +/- 12 pounds and is very happy with the heated pad. As I mentioned before, the pad is surrounded by a padded circle (sort of like a surround pillow).

My cat is not that big but the next door cat cme over and got in with him. It was tight but they both fit.

It might be too small for him, particularly if he likes to stretch out instead of curl up when he sleeps. It's fairly cushiony, but you can definitely feel the pad in it. You could always put a folded up blanket underneath of it as well. One of my cat loves it, the other one avoids it...go figure.

Hi, my cat is a smallish 8-lb. Siamese. He fits just fine, and I think your cat would too, but he might not have a lot of room to turn around. I had it on a wood floor, and my husband moved it to a room with carpeting, which makes it more stable. It's not wobbly, but it does have a little give to it. My cat likes it. Good luck!

I would say no. I have a smaller cat and it is the perfect size for him. I think your cat would fit but would not be comfortable.

We have an 18 pound cat. Tight fit on the top. Of course he makes himself fit. Other two levels are larger. Doesn't move when he jumps on it so it's sturdy.

My cat, Gray tabby, is tall and weighs 12lbs. He has room to turn around and plenty of width. He does' t move that much in it. I think he enjoys looking out the 'Windows' and also feels secure. Hope this comment helps you.

Highly unlikely - while s/he might fit in it, s/he would definitely not be comfortable. I would not suggest it for even a large cat (over 12 lbs) and is functional for those 10lbs and under. While bulldogs tend to be compact in their weight (weighing more than the same size cat) - not typically 'that' compact. This is a wonderful carrier, but too small for your bulldog needs.

Our 12-pound cat fit just fine, with plenty of room to spare. I would think a larger cat, 15 pounds or so, would be comfortable.

My cat is 12 lbs and fits nicely. I would think that if your dog did not weigh more than 14 lbs, it would work ok.

I think it will be a little small for that size dog. My cat is only 7 pounds and it is roomy for her but a long drive I would get something bigger.

I don't think so. Unless your cat likes small spaces... which some cats do. My cat is about 7lbs, and he barely fits. My other cat who is 5lbs seems to be more comfortable.

I agree too small I also have a 17lb cat. he enjoys the scratching aspect but that is all.

I bought a small/medium for my cat when he was only about 6 or 7 pounds and it was big enough for him to slip out of. I think it runs a little bit more on the medium side than small. Hope this helps!

I did not find it too small at all. In fact it seems larger to me than regular boxes. And the sides worked well. My cat is on the small side, though, at 7 lbs.

Out cat is about 12lbs and he had a little trouble. He'd end up playing with the tent instead of using it for what it was intended for. Now we have it sitting up so he can just play in it. It probably depends on the cat though. Ours loves it as a play tent.

Mine was small as well. My cat weighs about 15 pounds and since the wound was on his neck, this worked out great. I thought the fit would be tight, but it was just right. And he was unable to escape from the collar, but he did lick it and scratch a lot :)

My cat is appx. 10 pounds, I got the large so he'd be comfortable but it works good for his size. I think the regular may have been too small.

I have a 11lb cat and he does fit but it's snug. He can't stand up in it at all. I need something bigger.
