K&H Thermo-Kitty Heated Cat Bed, 16-Inch, Sage

We purchased one of these beds about 12 years ago for an elderly outdoor cat's dog house home. He used it for five years before passing away at age 17. It then came indoors to be used by our other rescue cats. It still warms up quite nicely and looks beautiful after many, many washings. I'm buying another bed so that the cat who is using the first bed won't have to continue to endure the sad eyes of the cat who is waiting his turn.

This is easy to use, the cats love it. The covers can be removed to be washed which is a great feature. We have had it for a month, and no problems to report, so far. I did read in the reviews that it was too small for a large cat. One of ours is over 13 lbs and seems to have no problems curling up in this bed.

I work at home and really needed to get my cat - Willow off my lap. I considered some other products, but read a review of this one that said the high sides were an important feature (since cats are enclosed and can feel safe). I made the right choice for my cat.
