Well, not with a cat.

Claws could be an issue.

I just got the kitten's new heat mat in, it's made of plastic that you blow up a little. I think for comfort. Not sure if it's a great idea with cats. But it does get nice and warm so we will give it a try. It has a nice velour covering and I can put a thin blanket on top if needed.

Here they are with my purchase of a few days ago, it's a small heated mat for use in pet beds. So I put it on the cat condo since that's their favorite place. They are now ignoring the heated mat on the floor. I'm hoping mom will start using it. The new heated mat is for a house with a 2nd floor balcony I got them. I hope it's as cute as the pictures show. I think it will be fun for them and it will be warmer inside when the nights get colder. I hope.

We got this hard plastic heated mat when 3 feral kittens and their mother showed up at on our screen porch. We plugged it into a thermostat “cube” that turned on automatically when the temp went below a certain temperature. (I think it’s made for chickens.)

We put it into a dog house we got at the farmers supply, and made the door smaller to keep out raccoons and possums.

They were so happy and cozy! In November we decided to bring them all inside. Now only Mama and one of her babies remain. That was 12 years ago. I dreamed about the other two last night and miss them so much.
