They Are Cuddling Together

As the temperatures get colder, Brendel and the Dude enjoy cuddling. They are on the sofa in this photo. You can see the grey heating pad underneath them. I talked about this yesterday. The pad has an automatic shut-off feature. They get good and warm and then it goes off on its own. Keeps it very safe to use. Have used these pads over the years. Even when I had Momma Kitty with her arthritis. When they sit in the chairs at the table, they each have one to sit on. I put it under their blankets. They sleep for hours all nice and warm. Photo is mine.

I feel bad because I had an old cat with arthritis. And I had never heard of these pads! A nice photo:)

@CarolDM Mindy was so stiff and in pain. She could barely stand up.

They are regular heating pads we use. And I thought of using it first with my older cat. But I never knew before then.

All 3 of mine were piled together on the bed while I was napping. They only got up when I did because they were following me.

That's a good heating pad! Adorable picture! Could never get one like that of my fiance's cats lmao. They don't get close together at all not even to eat. Have to be spread out.

Thank you! You are welcome. Also, I often put it underneath their blankets, especially for the Dude. He is heavier and it gets too warm right under him.

Cats are very clever pets since sometimes one of my cats will lay on my bed on top of my blanket or my clothes to keep warm during a cold day.
