As per a previous reviewer, the banana bed was completely squished in its packaging and no rigidity at all, so will not go into the banana shape shown in the product pics. There is no way my cat could comfortably lie with his head on the side and not have it collapse! The bed has to be leant on other furniture to stay kinda upright or left lying flat on the ground. My cat sniffed it once and refuses to go near it … If the sides were firmer he’d no doubt love it, as with most cats boxes are king!! Unfortunately, as it is, it’s a complete waste of money. Love the idea, but regrettably wouldn’t recommend.

Cat loves his new bed. Very comfortable.

I’m not sure if the cat would climb into this banana himself, but my son uses it as the cat’s sleeping bag when they snuggle on the couch and watch movies. It’s definitely soft, cute and well priced.
