Dogs and cats with thin or no hair who get chilled easily in the wintertime can benefit from a heated bed. Do cats like Icy Hot? do cats like vicks.

Are heated cat beds safe to leave plugged in?

Our heated dog and cat beds are designed for 24/7 operation. It’s actually easier on the thermostat if a bed is left plugged in and allowed to operate without interruption. Constant unplugging is harder on the thermostat because it’s forced to reset itself each time it’s plugged in.

What type of bed do cats prefer?

To pick a bed they’ll love, take a good look at the places where your cat likes to sleep. If they are burrowing into a pile of blankets, a full-surround bed—like a padded tunnel or cat cave—could be the right choice. If they like to stretch out on your sofa or bed, a plush sleeping pad might work better.
