K&H Pet Products Thermo-Kitty Heated Cat Bed

The K&H Pet Products Thermo-Kitty Heated Cat Bed addresses the thermoregulatory preferences of domestic cats — animals whose wild ancestors occupied warm desert and grassland environments — with a precisely temperature-regulated sleeping surface that activates in response to the cat’s presence and body heat. The bed’s heating element uses a thermostat that warms the sleeping surface to approximately 102°F when the cat is present, matching feline body temperature and creating the perpetually warm surface that cats seek in cold weather. When no cat is present, the heating element operates at a minimal baseline level that maintains slight warmth above ambient temperature, ensuring the bed is immediately comfortable when a cold cat arrives rather than requiring a warm-up period. The low-wattage heating system (4 watts during normal operation) consumes less electricity than a night light, making continuous operation economically and environmentally appropriate. All electrical components are enclosed within the orthopedic foam base — the cat contacts only the removable, machine-washable fleece cover rather than any electrical components. The MET-listed electrical components meet US safety standards for pet heating products. The raised rim creates a sense of enclosed security while the interior dimensions accommodate cats up to 15 pounds comfortably. The bed’s compact footprint fits in preferred cat locations including window sills, shelves, and closet corners. The fleece cover attaches via hook-and-loop fasteners for easy removal and washing. Includes a 5.5-foot MET-listed cord with in-line controller.
