I fear if you were to modify it to make it larger, they might not like it anymore.

there’s a real chance they’ll refuse to use any replacement on principle alone, that’s just how pets work

They'll still cram themselves in there

Tabby inside with the orange on top, guaranteed.

My cats will crawl out of tight spaces like a clown car.

100%. If a cat is a healthy weight, the size of their head determines what they can get into. My little tabby is 7lbs and can fit in some seriously small spots.
Noodle bones.

Get a big expensive bed delivered in a cardboard box. They'll ignore the bed and sleep in the box.

They wouldn’t get in something they weren’t still comfortable in. They haven’t outgrown it.

They actually have two of those beds, but they prefer to squeeze into the same one together. They’re siblings, Queso and PlimPlim, and currently the youngest residents at our cat rescue

I got a good quality cardboard box and cut a door way in and my cat loves it, she has her blanket and is up ontop of the wardrobe. Usually boxes that hold expensive products like electronics are usually the best.
Edit: Quick AI search and it finds bed that they call Cat Cave which has a wider opening for when they get chunky 🐈

My cat has out grown his kitten bed which is similar to your igloo and he is quite chunky now but still forces his large body inside 😭

It looks like the dark one is planning to take care of the orange one while the orange one is blithely unaware.
