Why it matters
The 1070 is K&H's outdoor heated bed: an orthopedic foam base in a vinyl shell with a washable fleece cover. A thermostat warms the surface toward a pet's normal body temperature, and only when a pet is on it, so it isn't heating an empty bed all night.
It's meant for sheltered outdoor spaces such as sheds, garages, barns and covered porches. The maker doesn't recommend it for pets that chew.
Who it's for, and who should skip it
Good fit if
- Outdoor, barn and feral cats
- Sheltered porches and garages
- Senior cats with stiff joints
Look elsewhere if
- Cats that chew cords
- Kittens or cats that can't move off a heat source on their own
- Unsheltered outdoor spots in rain or snow
Pros and cons
Pros
- Outdoor-rated
- Thermostatically controlled
- Washable fleece cover
Cons
- 18 x 14 in is small
- Not for chewers
- Needs a sheltered spot
Limitations to weigh
- Place the pad so your cat can move off it; any heated surface should have a cooler spot nearby.
- Route the cord where it can't be chewed or tripped over, and unplug it when it's not in use.
- Use it in a sheltered spot; it isn't meant to sit in open rain or snow.
