Perfect for window-side beds,

This review is from: K&H Pet Bed Warmer, 6 Watts, Medium, 6 By 20 Inches (Misc.)
I purchased the K & H warmer from PetSmart with the cover, but I've moved the warmer unit between different cat beds. The cover that you can get it for it is a flat mat and good for cool spaces, but for really chilly places like right in front of a drafty window -- putting it under the cover of an oval or "cup" style bed will keep your kitty toasty and happy.
Not only do the warmers fit nicely under the removable cover of a cup or oval style bed, they also slide nicely into most kitty "hammocks" (the sort you can cantilever on window sills). Great for winter bird-feeder gazing! Safety note: if your kitty "milk treads" a lot and you put the warmer directly under the cover of a cup style bed, make sure to keep your kitty's claws trimmed. Putting the warmer unit underneath the entire cup is a waste because the heat will disperse into the surface below the bed instead of warming your kitty. If you want to put a warmer in a cold place like a basement or garage, cement disperses the heat too easily -- opt for the outdoor warmer. This one just isn't enough in those cases. The K & H outdoor kitty warmer uses 40watts instead of 6, but keeping your kitty warm and healthy is worth it. For indoor and "upstairs" use only, 6 watts worth of warmer pad is positively great, and it uses less electricity than a bulb-style night light.

Works OK, but they don't seem to last,

This review is from: K&H Pet Bed Warmer, 13 Watts, Large, 11 By 24 Inches (Misc.)
We have an indoor cat who is getting up in years, and is always looking for something warm to lie on. Since I have trouble typing with a cat on the laptop, I bought one of these heaters a few years ago.
They have about the right amount of heat for an indoor cat who is just cold-basically it is about the equivalent of sitting on a chair that a nice warm human just got up from. FYI 13 watts is about the equivalent heat from two old-fashioned Christmas lights. One caution- this is only the heating element. It is made out of vinyl, sort of like an icepack, and is probably not something your animal will want to sleep on directly. It definitely needs a cover of some type. If you animal is a chewer or scratcher, you will probably want a zippered pouch for it. The size makes it a very tight fit into the bottom tube of one of those scratching post/houses made out of carpeted cardboard tubes. It is flexible enough to roll up and surround the cat on three sides, which he loves. Luckily the first one of these I bought came with the fleece pouch, and I could just replace the heater in it with this one. This is handy, because each of these heaters (3 in total) have lasted about one year and then stop heating. I wish they were more robust, but $25/year really isn't all that much in the cat ownership financial picture, so I just pay it and shut up. 3 stars only because I only use these indoors, and my cat is pretty docile, so there is no reason these things should keep failing so often.
