Does it fit a laptop?

Yes. The main compartment has a padded sleeve sized for most 15-inch laptops, and there is still room for a charger and notebook.

Is it machine washable?

Yes. Vera Bradley quilts this cotton line for machine washing on cold and air drying, which is unusual for a structured backpack.

No. The quilted cotton resists a light drizzle but absorbs water in steady rain, so pack a cover or dry bag for wet commutes.

How does it compare with Vera Bradley's smaller backpacks?

This is the large 30-liter version, so it holds a laptop and a day's gear where the smaller styles suit essentials only. It is heavier and bulkier as a result.

The backpack only. It has no rain cover, dust bag or extra straps included.

Can it slide over a suitcase handle?

Yes. A trolley sleeve on the back lets it sit on rolling luggage, which makes it a practical carry-on personal item.

About the Vera Bradley A Cat's Life Essential Large Backpack

The Vera Bradley A Cat's Life Essential Large Backpack is a 30-liter zip-top backpack in the brand's signature quilted cotton, printed with cats and flowers. It has a roomy main compartment, a padded laptop sleeve, front zip pockets and a trolley strap for travel. It suits commuters, students and cat lovers who want a soft, washable everyday bag rather than a technical pack. Against nylon laptop backpacks it trades weather resistance and structure for lighter weight, machine washability and a distinctive print.
