Want a warm, snuggly bed for your favorite feline?
We all like to be cozy and warm in our beds, and of course, our cats do too! Maybe you have a kitty who likes to spend time outside, and you want to have a cozy place for your pet to curl up when they’re out all night. Or perhaps you have set up a shelter for cats who might not have a warm home they can go to. Or maybe you want to pamper your beloved indoor kitty. Whether you’re interested in a cozy bed for newborn kittens, a warm nest for a stray or feral cat in need, or a a soothing resting place for a beloved senior kitty with some aches and pains, there are many things to consider when shopping for a bed warmer or heating pad for your cat:
Will your pet bed be indoors or outdoors? Only bedwarmers specifically designed for outdoor use should be used for your outside cat. This is vitally important for safety reasons. Be sure to check the description.
What size bed warmer do you need? If the heating pad is for a specific bed, be sure to measure the bed’s dimensions. For safety reasons, heating pads and bed warmers must never be folded. If you have cats that like to cuddle together, be sure to get a pad big enough to keep both kitties happy.
What length power cord do you need? Be sure you know where you’re likely to use your cat’s bed warmer, and how far it is to the nearest electrical outlet. If an extension cord will be used, be sure it is suitably rated for your use, particularly if your cat bed is outdoors.
Do you want a bed with heating pad included, or a stand-alone bed warmer? Many beds come with removable heating pads, which ensures a proper fit.
Does your heating pad or bed warmer need to be waterproof? Whether you are warming up an outdoor nest or an indoor bed, you might want to consider the possibility of water getting into the mix.
Read on for our picks for the best bed warmers.
