FurHaven ThermaNAP Self Warming Cat Mat, Dog Bed for Crates with Self-Warming Technology for Cozy Rest, Fully Machine Washable, Small, Plush Faux Fur, Gray

Our family has owned 3 of these mats. I have one cat who is chronically cold and could often be found huddling on a heater vent. Once she discovered that this mat keeps her warm and is more comfortable, she moved from the vent to the mat. My daughter's cats similarly like their mats. Washing them is easy.

You guys will laugh, but I use these for my chickens when it's the colder months, or it just happens to be chilly and I can't provide them with their heat panels (like a chilly summer day or something). They absolutely love these mats. I got them last winter to help keep them warm alongside their heat panels. I wasn't sure at first if they'd use it because of the dark color I got, but they didn't care once they realized they were warm (and throwing some treats on them helped). No worries, they do get mucked up and filthy, haha! But they're machine washable, so I can always toss them in the wash. And they're durable enough to stand up to my rooster digging at it, so they're worth the money. The size is also perfect for their small coop, and they're nice and soft too, a bonus for all involved. So if you're lookong for a little extra warmth for your feather babies, I highly recommend these.

A pretty good pad/bed for my cat to chill on. He seems to like it as he uses it pretty regularly. Its got a thermal blanket in there which allows the pad to reflect heat back to the cat which gives it a nice little self heating effect. This is something that I was looking for as my cat like to be warm. This beds self heating effect means he no longer sits on top of my PC tower which is nice. The thermal blanket inside the bed does have a slight crinkle when my cat walks on it or adjusts him self on it but that is to be expected with there being a thermal blanket inside. One thing to note is the crinkle might surprise your pet if they're not used to it. Also the bed is slightly on the thinner side but that has not bothered my cat. So far the bed appears to be durable as it hasn't fallen apart yet and is as plush as the day I got it. Also for me it was the perfect size for placing on my desk so my cat can chill next to me while I am using my PC. I'd say for the price its worth a try!

With warm weather came the usual packing up of the heated blanket that the suckers, I mean my wife and I, keep on the couch for our spoiled housecats. The itty bitty white kitty, affectionately known as Itty, is perpetually cold no matter what time of year it is, so I set out on a quest to find him something that would help when his favorite binkie (the one that makes its own warmth, like some miracle or something) was in storage. I struck out at both of the pet stores near the house (probably because I went looking for a winter product in springtime) so, when I went back home and broke the bad news to Itty, he demanded that I continue looking. Okay. So actually, he just sat there on the non-warming, plain, inferior blanket on "his" section of the couch, affecting a dramatic shiver and occasionally making his teeth chatter. A few days later, Amazon came through for me with this self-warming, fuzzy blanket that's just big enough to fit the middle section of our couch. I mean, Itty's couch. The shivering, white kitty sprang into action, claiming the new binkie as his own even as he continued sniffing it to determine if he were going to like it or puke on it. Or yes. (Sometimes, he vomits on the things he likes. Such as my bed.) This is a soft, fuzzy blanket that all three of our cats lie on for hours at a time. Not all at the same time, though. This blanket isn't quite big enough for that. Besides, they're cats. They don't all get into a big, cute cuddle puddle even when I try to bribe them with food. However, two kitties who are feeling benevolent can comfortably fit on, and snuggle up to each other while using, this blanket. There's a loop on one end for storage, or hanging to dry, as you aren't supposed to just toss this thing into the dryer. This is only a minor inconvenience in our house, as we already hang or lay out some other stuff to air dry; adding one more, small-ish piece of laundry to that isn't the biggest deal. Your mileage may vary, so it's good to know these things before you buy. Inside, there's basically a piece of that silver emergency blanket you may have tucked into your car's trunk for winter weather. (You are prepared for that, right?) So, after one of our cats has been on the blanket a few minutes or so, his/her own body heat is reflected. Warm kitties! No power required! And this was a cheap blanket, so we can replace it every couple-few years without losing our shirts! Actually, I purchased this more than a year ago; during cold months, it got washed and packed up so that Heated Blanket, Itty's favorite, could reappear. He was, again, sad to see that blanket's departure, but welcomed this self-heating alternative with a sniff and a prompt lie down right in the middle. This would be a five-star purchase but, because the fuzzy material is a bit thin, and because this is not the most-luxurious blanket of its type on the market, I can't pretend that it's top of the line. However, for the price, this is a solid deal that I'll buy again. Assuming that the cats don't find this review, learn that I did not spend all of my hard-earned money to buy them The Best Blanket in the Universe, and leave their hairballs in my shoes while I'm asleep. Also, the dark-brown color is a good choice. It hides the most cat hair.

Once I put the small dog bed in the cat condo with the cat, she moved onto it. She has issues jumping at her age but seems to want to be on this even though it is higher than the bed she was already using. It's padded enough to be thick enough and comfy but flat enough to fit on the level I have it on and be folded over since it is a little bigger than the platform. I wish it came with velcro to attach to the bars but the one loop has worked with a zip tie to hold it well. It seems pretty durable for cats. I wouldn't use it with a puppy in the chewing stage. I highly recommend this. My elderly cat has been sleeping on it with a big smile on her face so I think it's warm and comfy enough for her.

Rafa loves it! It keeps him perfectly warm. It is made really well, perfect size and feels cozy and soft. Highly recommended!✨

The cats like these, and they are machine washable. That's a plus considering my one cat likes to puke a lot! Soft and comfy.

Unfortunately my tom didn't like this 'self warming' cat mat. The mat had a soft surface and was of good size. BUT the mylar sheet sandwiched between front and back covers produced a crinkling sound that put off my cat's curiosity. One of those impulse purchases that I Just Knew wouldn't work out. But there you have it. I gave it away, tags still on, to another cat family. May it find a home.
