This cat is up to me in the microwave and you can just heat up and place it on your shoulders. You have to watch that you find the right time for the grains is not too hot. Overall, a great idea, but the cat is a bit narrow to meet the neck where it is clamped in the evening. commitment it deeper, then slips the cat down a hump. Use mitterlweile rather Daydrem Lavendelkissen that can also bind.
