JANNIK The Kitty Tube Safe Low Voltage Heated Pet Pad

I purchased the kitty tube heated pad to create a nice warm environment for a stray that has been out in the bitter cold. The pad has been constructed to be safe for kitty, has a non chewable cord and when placed under the pillow that comes with the kitty pad warms up quickly. Highly recommended for cold winters. I would also recommend the kitty tube with the double insulation. Really great products for feral cats, strays, any outdoor kitties in the winter.

My feral refuses to use his Kitty Tube house now I think this must give off a high pitch noise or he doesn't like the smell of it. Sadly, I am going to disable it so he can go back to loving his house again without one.

BACKGROUND: We have a cat who dislikes staying inside, even when it gets bitter cold out side. I looked at various reviews of conventional 110V AC pet heating pads and one thing that struck me was - regardless of brand -- a consistent percentage of reports of melting, overheating, etc. (You'll see it in the 1 star reviews of course).THEN.... I discover this Kitty Tube "SAFE" low voltage Heated Pet Pad.It has a transformer that drops the voltage down from 110 Volts Alternating Current to 24 Volts direct current.It has a thermostat that works.The pad is "just right" toasty but not overly hot.My cat loves this and I feel good about using it. Whereas before she would huddle closely in her outside bed (in an enclosure) to keep warm, she now can be found sprawling, stretched out with a smile.NOTE: I did take the extra precaution to enclose the transformer in a two different thick baggies with pull-ties - one over the other and keep it in a place where water cannot pool or drain to. Just common sense.I can recommend this heating pad! My cat doesn't even want to leave her kitty nest now!

I hate to leave a negative review here because I really like the Kitty Tube I purchased from this seller but this heated pet pad is simply not good, especially for the price. First, it does NOT fit perfectly inside the Kitty Tube as advertised. It is actually a much smaller diameter than the Kitty Tube. Second, the transformer is too large and cannot plug into my outdoor receptacle. You could of course buy an extension cord for this if you need/want to. Third, the pad doesn't actually have any padding. It is simply the heating coils covered in plastic and then covered in a thin fleece. No actual padding to speak of. Imagine your kitty outside trying to curl up in its Kitty Tube only to have metal coils poking at it - not fun.For $60 I would expect a lot more from this product. I won't mention company names but there is another company which sells heated pet beds/pads more a lot less and are a much higher quality.Now for a more positive review go read my 5 star review for the Kitty Tube itself.

We got this for a group of "deck dudes" currently using our deck as home plate - and of course it resides inside their Kitty Tube we bought for them last year. We put it underneath the straw, plugged it in - and they seem to be very content. Sometimes I even see a pair of feet or a tail hanging out of the box - I think they may get a little too warm in there! The cord is quite long and most of it is wrapped in a metal coil for protection against gnawing. The covering on the pad is thin - but I think it is meant to go under something - not to be the primary source of warmth for the cats since it never gets any warmer than their core temp. I'm also comfortable in the fact that it won't short out and catch fire. Thanks for a great solution to a situation that always distresses me when cold weather comes and I worry about my feral outside buddies.

The pad seems really good....unfortunately the cat I have been TRYING to give shelter to is resisting the Kitty Tube. I have set it up on a small side deck with thick Plexiglas on top with plastic surrounding two sides protecting it from the snow...He has gone in a couple of times that I've noticed.I have kept the pad on heat mode 24-7 for him. I wonder if his reluctance is because it only has the one opening. I am satisfied with both products and I will be relieved when he takes advantage of my hospitality. I tried bringing him into the den but he was petrified....After about 20 hours I let him out....he ran away from the house and I thought I wouldn't see him again....but he did return.

Not as warm as I expected but feral cat we have outside seems like it. She is sleeping in the cat house now when it getting colder.

This works great. It s not so hot as to prove to be a hazard to an animal, but provides just enough heat to make the Kitty Tube (the product it is designed to go with) very comfortable. Bought the "Kitty Tube" insulated cat bed for my outside cat and initially did not think I would need to heated pad because I live in Southern California, but when temperatures, I went ahead and ordered the pad. My cat clearly likes it, and he seems more calm and comfortable knowing he has a warm place to sleep.
