Question 1

Are heated cat beds safe?

Accepted Answer

Heated cat beds are safe, and they can provide a great way to warm up senior cats or even younger kittens. Plug-in electric cat beds feature a low wattage and many safety features, but use common sense caution and follow all the directions for safe use. Self-heating beds work by reflecting and trapping heat to keep your cat warm without electricity. Just be sure your cat has the option to leave the bed to avoid overheating and monitor your cat closely for signs of any distress.

Question 2

Do heated cat beds help cats?

Accepted Answer

Heated cat beds can help cats with arthritis and joint pain in much the same way a heating pad can provide relief for people. Heated beds can also take the chill off in a drafty room or outdoors when the weather is cooler, and there are many indoor and outdoor beds to choose from.

Question 3

Are heated cat beds safe to leave plugged in?

Accepted Answer

Heated cat beds are safe to leave plugged in. They are designed with a low wattage and an internal thermostat to ensure they keep the correct temperature. Heated beds for cats are also engineered to not get too hot for your kitty, or to get so warm they might be able to cause a fire. Look for safety testing information on the package and be sure to only use a heated bed or pad that’s made specifically for cats.

Question 4

Is a heating pad too hot for a cat?

Accepted Answer

A heating pad for humans is too hot for a cat, so be sure to choose a heated pad or bed made specifically for felines. Heated pads made for cats usually won’t exceed a cat’s natural body temperature, or if they do, it will just be by a little to provide safe, therapeutic warmth. Heated cat beds and pads also have different safety features like chew and claw-resistant casing and cords, low wattage, and even pressure-activated heating mechanisms to save energy. Always choose a heated bed made specifically for cats to ensure your furry friend’s comfort and safety.
