Belated Happy Anniversary chantelAs to heat pads I've had a couple of Snugglesafe microwave pads for years (looking back I bought them in autumn/winter 2012), even bought a Cat Cushion for it although that had some weak stitching & I seem to remember I had my money refunded by Zooplus. The heatpads & their normal covers are still fine, although I haven't got them out this year yet. Snugglesafe have their own website & are also available on Amazon & Petsathome amongst others. They worked well but were a bit hard (which I why I originally bought the cushion) but put under a cat bed or some blankets they are great. In 2020 I bought a couple of Wheatybag microwave heat pads, again good & more flexible. wheatybags.co.uk/products/wheat-bags-pet-heating-padthey also sell on Amazon www.amazon.co.uk/WheatyBags-Warming-Microwave-Cotton-Fabric/dp/B07D5BDW6PNot much difference in price depending on which shipping option you choose. I've also had a doughnut cat bed with a removable microwave heatpad but the bed wasn't popular, none of the cats liked a doughnut bed! The self heating blankets have been popular in the past, can't remember where I got them from, possible Pets at Home or Zooplus but had them a while. Currently used as a bed (not necessarily for warmth as was used before it was cold) by Shady is this bed www.petplanet.co.uk/p20545/purrshire_self_warming_cat_bed.aspxI bought 2 of them in 2018 (1 to use & 1 to wash) & they're still going strong Lexie also used it in all seasons but now tends to sleep with me.

I bought several of the Snugglesafe pads years ago and have another 2 ordered. I particularly want one for Toffee in the cat pen at night, but it's hard to predict where he will sleep. Don't laugh, but hubby uses one in the bed and has done so for years! It stays warm until the morning.
