Review on 🔥 Stay Cozy with the Oster Heated Pet Pad by Kelly Zitzner

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Our cats love this blanket.

Our cats live in unheated garages or temporary winter shelters. Most cats, even the abandoned pets we've adopted, are picky about almost everything. Rate these pads. The industry average pet warming temperature is around 102 degrees, which is close to a cat's normal body temperature of between 100.4 and 102.5 degrees Fahrenheit. With human temperature. At 98.6, that small 3 1/2 degree difference can be difficult to see. Especially since 102ºF only occurs when and where the animal is lying down. This energy-efficient technology does not heat the entire surface of the bed. This is a thermostatically controlled design. which only heats where the pet is lying. The pad stays 10-15ºF warmer than room temperature when plugged in but not in use. Heat is felt everywhere you squeeze and hold your hand except for 1" to 1 1/2" on the outer edge around the pad. Heat is only re-radiated through a small amount of padding to the top when and where you hold your hand Relief for older cats with joint pains The cover is plush and has a zipper that can be removed for washing On each side of the vinyl Inside the heating element is a 1/8 inch piece of foam. I am surprised at how large the outer cover is 26" x 36" which is double the size of the 18" x 23 1/2" heating element. So we centered the liner in the lid and then centered where the lid would be on top and around for more comfort. Also the liner could be rotated vertically to only use half the cover and that would be safe. There is no switch on the cable. Indoor pet pads have no cords with wire protectors and are great for its thin plastic like this one. The outdoor pads have a cord wrapped in a metal sleeve for security and a hard plastic that's rigid as a board and won't bend. The thought is that pets are not as likely to chew on these items. Outdoor animals are more likely to chew on these items. This pillow has features when it should be in the product. Jan 22, 2013 I received 2 different sizes of Easter pet pillows for 2 months. Before that, both pillows were in beds prepared for wild cats from the day they arrived. They're both in constant use every day except for the rare warm sunny days. When I put my hand between the cat and the pad at 8 degrees. it is hot warm. Although these rugs are for the home, I feel comfortable with them on the street. Because the beds are weatherproof and the cats were abandoned pets and I never saw them chew anything. .

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
