Here to buy more! Our senior kitty that *DEMANDS* Lap *All*The*Time* because he is sick and maybe feels cold, has really taken to this crate liner as a bed. He isn't demanding lap all the time since the day this arrived. It was originally bought for a friend's kitten but this kitty decided it was his new bed. Of course, he has many beds all over the house and even just a few feet from where this one was set down, but he only likes this one now. And lap. BUT, he isn't forcing us to give him our laps 24-7. To the touch, this doesn't seem to "warm" as it says it does. But it's doing something for him compared to other beds in the house, as we are now able to get some sleep instead of him crawling all over us all night, every night. It's on our bed though, as it's not cushy enough for his old bones. The ones being ordered tonight will be placed in his cushy beds. Oh, and the kitten still needs one for the carrier! We looked at some of K&H's plug-in beds for him, as we had some in the past. Unfortunately, there are some scary reviews now, so maybe their quality control has gone down. We also looked at those weird, microwave heat things, but with their exploding and/or leaking – nope. We didn't even notice the slight crinkle noise of this bed at first, but kept squishing it to see if it really had the metallic lining in there and it probably does because it makes a little noise. This kitty likes to get in paper bags, so it didn't bother him. Our other monster cat liked this as well, and our sick kitty almost fought him for it! Luckily we were there, but yikes. He likes it *that much*! Your kitties or dogs may not like it, but it's worth a try for the small size at a little over $6. If they don't like it, you can always donate it to a foster home or rescue. We're pretty sure some kitties will like it. We feel lucky to have chanced upon finding something this kitty likes at least as much as lap! EDITED TO ANSWER A QUESTION SOMEONE HAD ABOUT OUTDOOR USE IN WINTER: We live in AZ, and at night here it gets pretty cold during Jan-Feb. It can freeze over for a few weeks. (20 to 30 degrees F) If this is all you can use in a similar situation it's better than nothing. But I think K&H makes a “furry” version of this, and that would be better. If you are somewhere that freezes regularly, I’d recommend something else *with* this, like a hot water bottle if there’s no electrical – this one is all rubber, not plastic:HomeTop Premium Classic Rubber Hot Water Bottle, Great for Pain Relief, Hot and Cold Therapy (2 Liters, Cream White) If you have an electrical outlet outside, this heating pad is *great*:K&H Pet Products Lectro-Soft Outdoor Heated Pet Bed Small Tan 14" x 18" 20W They have different sizes, from small to large. I'd written above about how they had some scary reviews, but did end up ordering one anyway – and it is fine. I'm not sure if it will last as long as our other, older ones have – They still work after 7 years. But figured it was worth a try and it seems to be made with the same quality as the old ones... So far. I'll update if there's any change! All of our kitties have really loved them, so we've bought a few over the years and all are still working. Now that the kitties that were once feral 'outdoors only' types have come inside, we use these for their comfort - one has arthritis. Though, even before getting old and stiff, he *really* liked sleeping on these. He would knock our other old kitties off so he could sleep in his preferred area on this heated bed instead of a regular cat bed! One thing though - I'm really sensitive to things like plastic smells. These needed to be aired out for a week or so - For me, at least. You may be different. It helped to gently wipe it down with a damp sponge with some Dr. Bronner's soap and then rinse/wipe with a clean damp sponge and let dry. You can find the one we use that has the least amount of questionable ingredients (as checked on Environmental Working Group's site - ewg.org) here, though, you may find it cheaper locally, or on their site:Dr. Bronner's Pure-Castile Liquid Soap - Baby Unscented, 32oz. Hope this helps! ***** UPDATE (About a year later. 4-21-18) ***** Like these so much! They still look new, and they wash so easily (washer/dryer). They also vacuum nicely. We're here getting even more of these since one of our cats has now been diagnosed with Asthma/Bronchitis. Now we need to wash the cat beds *really often* and get rid of the ones with foofy fabrics that traps dander and dust. Of course that was the majority of the kitty beds here :( Luckily, we know they really like these smoother beds. We’ll also get a few *medical grade* allergy pillow covers to zip over cushioned cat beds and regular allergy pillows to use on their own, or to put under this bed, to make it nice‘n’squishy for their old, arthritic bones.MISSION: ALLERGY Dust Mite- and Allergen-Proof Pillow Encasing; "Premium Microfiber" https://www.amazon.com/Allergen-Proof-Encasing-Premium-Microfiber-Standard/dp/B0096E7ZGI ::: PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT ::: HEY! If your cat is hunkering down / getting low to the floor or chair or whatever, stretching it's neck out like a fur ball will be forthcoming but then makes a hacking noise/cough – GET THEM CHECKED! It could be an extremely serious problem that's heart related (enlarged heart: Cardiomegaly, or disease of the heart muscle: Cardiomyopathy), or, more likely - Asthma/Bronchitis. There are videos on YouTube you can check out. Search for feline or cat and coughing. IF YOUR CAT EVER PANTS, GET THEM TO THE E.R. RIGHT AWAY! They need to get oxygen right away. Cats should *never* pant! It’s a sign there is something horribly wrong. Panting could also be from asthma/bronchitis or heart problems. Both are deadly. Apparently, every time kitties cough like this it causes damage that does NOT repair itself, and worsens over time. Most people think it's just a fur ball, but it's not. And as far as fur balls go – Now there are studies showing what most people and vets think is a fur ball situation is actually small bowel disease that could end in cancer. A vet doing studies on this named Gary D. Norsworthy, DVM, DABVP, has some (expensive) books available on Amazon. His Amazon page can be found here:Gary D. Norsworthy A book on cats written with another author can be found here:Nursing the Feline Patient But if you are interested in learning the most current info why your KITTY is PUKING “fur balls” constantly, which IS NOT NORMAL, do an internet search for, “Gary D. Norsworthy bowel disease” but leave out the "". Here’s hoping this helps some people and kitties out there. Our kitties have a lot of health problems, and we’re hoping other people can avoid some of these things if problems are caught early. Good luck! =<`;`>=
