Small hot water bottle + cover + plush cushion = happy cats.

Though it has to be said the old jumper on a bed is also a firm favourite!

Aha I understand now, was having a blonde moment and was wondering how huge the cats you have are lol. Is it bad to admit that I have borrowed Bilbo's flectabed before in the winter? If it is then I didn't do it honest  :evillaugh:

I cant find one big enough  :naughty:

How big do you need it? Flectabed make it up to 50" x 30" (just over 4ft x 2.5ft)

We had one of these for Puma when he was recovering from his road accident and metal work episode and it was great only cost £19.99 from PAH and it washes like a dream and nearly 2 years on still looks like new, currently being used by Miss Gracie as she feels the cold!

Ours is in Leopard print! :)

I might give one a go - although don't know if it's worth it this time of year? - if it makes her comfortable I don't mind but I bought her 2 cat beds and a padded dog cushion and she ignores them all - she prefers an old jumper on the bed  :evillaugh:

I've got a few lots of Flectabedding (made by vetbed people) which is something similar and reflects their body heat back to them. I have used it outside in the cat house and also with the kittens when they were very tiny and it seems really good. Thumbs up from me.

Following on from the cat bed thread, I wondered if it was worth getting one of these for Alice. The price looks really good as they are £29.99 from Smylees.

I bought a couple of snugglesafe last year but they don't seem very comfortable for the cats.
