Cat heated pads anyone any info?

These sound great - if for no other reason than they should keep cats off the bed! Both cats slept downstairs by the still-cosy log fire last night and I had my best night's sleep for ages

We use heated beds at work, cats adore them, the owners peel their pets off when they leave. We get them from here, they work on a thermostat and are next to nothing to run.

They had heat pads at the cattery I used to take my last cat to! She used to look at me with disgust and not want to move when I picked her up!

This has been a really useful thread and has prompted me to do something about keeping elderly cats warm overnight and keeping the humans bed uncluttered with felines and allowing them to sleep!

I've just ordered the microwave pads from www.indigopets.co.uk . They are £19.99 each, free p&p over £36. Delivery 3-4 days, it says, so I'll let you know.

BTW if anyone else orders from the site, it asks where you heard about them, so please enter CatPages and maybe Az will get a bit of advertising revenue from them?

I have a microwave hot water bottle, think I might heat that up and put it in the cats bed!!!

Update

Well, I ordered on Tuesday and the microwave Snugglesafe have arrived this morning, so I can't fault the service from Indigopets. Both my old ladies appear to be happy with their gifts, but they are just sitting and surveying the world with warm bottoms; as I said on 'The Shred' it's nothing like as cold this morning, so they are not in curl up and hibernate mode. I'll have a better idea after tonight whether they really like the heat-pads.

Further update - 1 hour on

They luv 'em. Both snuggled down asleep, looking soooo cosy and comfortable.

How about a pic of them warming their little botts DM?
