K&H Pet Products Lectro-Soft Outdoor Heated Bed: Keep Your Pet Cozy in Cold Weather

TheBirdBrain: So I really don't like cats being outside. They kill birds and are so prone to getting hurt themselves. However people keep throwing cats out at my place. After getting them all fixed, I just hate them to be "out in the cold" literally -- so we have bought little houses and heat pads for them all. At any given time, every house will be full of a toasty warm cat laying on his pad. This gives me the peace of mind I need to go to bed and not worry when the temps plummet.

J. Foy: The pads initially do not feel warm until something sits on them for a few mins. To gets the cats to start using them, I laid a pillow on the pads for 10 mins, the pads headed up, and then I placed the cats on them so they understood the pads are warm. Using a temperature gun, I measured the temp under the pillow at around 100F. The pads have a slip on cover so cleaning them is easy.

Polly Ruff Herron: I like the bed heater . It’s nice and soft it doesn’t have a hard board on the bottom. It seems to heat up pretty fast. My fur baby likes it he lays on it a lot. If you need a heated bed for your cat or dog I would choose this one. I can’t remember but I think it came in other sizes.

carinadelmar: This is the best outdoor heated dog bed you can get, don't fall for the cheaper brands if you want quality and durability. Mine have all lasted for years (5+) and I just recently purchased the XL size for my largest outdoor dog. Great bed and totally worth the money!

Amazon CustomerAmazon Customer: I have purchased 3 of these heaters now and highly recommend! We care for a colony of 3 strays and have now built each their own insulated, wooden cat house to keep them safe and warm over the Canadian winters. I make my own covers for them as I find the fleece gets very dirty and smelly, especially with feral cats.

Amazon Customer: I have a feral cat (with a winter house) and this pad goes inside to keep Kitty warm on those really cold nights. I have purchased items from K&H before and they never disappoint. Packaged nicely with a really well written “explanation” of how the heating process works. They actually instruct you to test it out first (for some reason I liked that). Coiled wire, three prong plug, the pad actually expands a bit for kitty’s comfort and a thin Sherpa cover. I bought the small size which is 20 watts. I think with the larger sizes the wattage increases. It’s Halloween and nasty cold … I’m happy I’ve already put it in her house! 👍🏼

Amazon Customer: Well worth the money. It's winter approaching and we have had -4 at night already. Our kitty went in the cat house and lied down on it right away. Now that she knows it warms up she's always in there.

IamtheNightStalker: I got this for a stray cat that has been hanging around for the last 3 years. I put the heating pad in one of his houses on the deck. He LOVES it and spends a lot of time on it. It doesn’t feel hot like a regular human heating pad but seems perfect for an animal. The pad is well made and definitely waterproof.. With the cover on the pad it looks like a big slice of bread and the raccoons keep taking it out of the shelter and dunking it their water dish. The cord and plugin are very robust and the cover washes and dries easily.
I definitely recommend this for anyone that has an outdoor cat shelter. I can’t get ‘Orange Cat’ to come and live in my house so on my back deck he has an outdoor, prefabricated, insulated shelter with this heating pad inside.
If you can help an animal in need, please do. 😁

Munyuk: Soft and warm, which the cat loves and is her favourite sleeping place. I had an older one which she used all the time, but when our outdoor cat came in and discovered it, the two of them started fighting over it, so I had to get this second one. I would have given the product 5 stars, except it's a bit narrower than the older one (14"X18" instead of 16"X18"). Also, the cover on the older pad was like a pillowcase, so the entire pad was inside it. This newer pad, however, only has a cover for the top with pockets at the top and bottom to hold the pad in place.

KittyMac: I got this after having the harsh weather or whatever it's called- the hard plastic version. My one cat just never can get warm so she is obsessed with such things, plus we have a yard feral now so needed a spare for outside to help her through the winter. I'm not sure yet which I prefer, will update if there turns out to be any difference in longevity.
The padded nature of this is nice of course, plus it is easier to shove inside the feral shelter box, being flexible. I shake my head at all the reviewers baffled by the valve thing! Let me try to explain. The pad is full of foam. To make it smaller for shipping? or maybe so we can control the hardness? they suck the air out and when we get it we open the valve and let air back in. While the pad is plugged in so it warms up, softening the foam to help it fluff back up. If you want it firmer you can encourage more air to go inside by pushing and pulling gently at opposite edges somewhat like you'd fluff a pillow. if you want no air just the foam, which would be a softer cushion, you can leave it or even squish it a little. Once you like how it is you seal the valve again. There is no pump. The pad doesn't change dramatically....
