This is a thin pad covered with microfleece and sized to standard crates, but can be used as a stand alone item. I paired the pad with an orthopedic bed.
Does The Pad Work?
Yes, it does. It generates a very gentle low level warmth.
Why I Like This Pad Over A Pet Heating Pad?
I did try and return an electrical pet heating pad. Not because the pad did not work, but because I had concerns regarding the necessity of supervision I felt necessary with a heating pad even with auto turn off features.
I prefer the Self Warming Pad with no need to find electricity. This makes the pad very portable. The pad is already sized to common crate sizes and is washable. Owners also report the pad works wonderfully for cats and laps.
The price point is reasonable and what is interesting when reading the comments and reviews are the number of people who bought the product for their pet and after seeing how well the pad worked, returned to purchase another for them! Great Idea!
I definitely agree with you about not wanting to use anything electric for our dogs, especially senior dogs who tend to have bladder leaks. A self heating pad is ideal! What a great find.
ReplyDeleteI will have to show this to my son for his dog. Pepe is still fairly young, but a good find for future needs. Actually, I immediately wondered if it would would as a substitute heating pad for myself on nights my tummy could use a bit of heat for comfort. I had a heating sheet in the hospital last year which worked off water. This sounds even better. LOL.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a wonderful option for any dog, but especially seniors. Thanks for the recommendation!
ReplyDeleteA self warming pad sounds like a great choice. I too had purchased an electrical one, and decided against putting the heating pad in the bed.
