K&H Pet Products Outdoor Heated Kitty House

I bought this kitty house to use for a feral cat in my neighborhood. It kept her warm during the artic cold we had recently. She sleeps in it at night, takes naps off and on during the day, and shelters during rain. It's on a raised pad on my patio and is keeping dry there on the inside, even during lots of blowing rain and snow. It seems to be doing as advertised, keeping her warm and dry. The cord isn't very long, and the directions say not to use an extension cord, so it has to be kept near an outlet. Easy to put together, just unfold and add roof. Walls and roof attach with velcro. Pad slips inside. The pad is just about an inch longer than needs to be, so the bottom of the door flap gets I bought this kitty house to use for a feral cat in my neighborhood.

The pad is just about an inch longer than needs to be, so the bottom of the door flap gets caught on it and doesn't always flap completely closed, but with moving around inside, the cat seems to push it closed most of the time. The fact that the pad is snug to the walls probably keeps cold from seeping in as much from the ground. All in all, for the money seems to be a decent product. I would buy it again. … more

Ordered for an older barn kittie that could go into the heated shop but prefers the cold tack room. With the below zero weather coming in, I was worried about her so ordered this. She was sleeping on a heated pad, which she didn’t want to leave. After a couple days of seeing the other 2 barn cats sleeping in it, she finally made the switch and now only comes out to eat and go potty. She’s happy and I’m relieved! I’ll have to order another for the two boys as Little Girl won’t share after kicking them out, lol. Was very quick and easy to assemble. I did take both doors off to entice her to go in.

It was easy to put together; pad seemed to heat up within a half-hour, but unsure if it will be sufficient for upstate NY cold; time will tell. My youngest TNR cat took to it after a week and sits in it daily; not all day, but part of the day. Closed off the back entry with cardboard to increase body heat. I'd recommend this kitty house, but will probably try another brand that is insulated. This is not an insulated kitty house, but worth about what I paid. I keep it elevated on a pallet to ensure the base does not get wet from the weather.

I bought this house for a couple of feral cats that come around the house. Its big enough for 1 large cat, so I am considering buying another. The instructions are great and it was super easy to put together in just a few minutes. We just had a severe freeze in our area of -40 wind chill and the kitty house held up nicely for the cats even as they both squeezed in to stay warm enough. I also placed it under protection per instructions but added a water resistant cover over all to keep most of the wind out, with a small opening at the edge for a cat entrance. The doors are okay, firm thin plastic with Velcro and I removed one for better access.

Cat liked it right off. Was afraid she wouldn't even check out how to get in the doors but put them on anyway. Figured she needed to get used them as the wind tunnel effect would make the heating pad useless. Well curiosity killed the cat as they say and she explores anything new or even moved! She when right in and laid down! Sat and waited and watched her do it. Satisfied she would use it, I haven't messed with it since. Plan on inspection tomorrow lol! I do find some glaring design flaws with it but that is on the manufacturer and the engineer who designed it. Not on Chewy. Really like the olive color. Blends and not and eyesore. Arrived fast, in perfect condition and every thing was Cat liked it right off. Was afraid she wouldn't even check out how to get in the doors but put them on anyway.

I was skeptical of buying this due to price. I was afraid she wouldn't use it, we had been leaving a tote with a heating pad out for her but temps were getting down in the teens at night but She loves this thing and even uses it when it's not cold. It warms up when they are in it. I guess by the pressure of their bodies so it's not staying hot all the time only when in use. She uses it when it's raining to, it stays dry. We just leave it out on the front patio and have it sitting in a chair.

My two girls love these heated houses! Our cats spend a lot of time playing in the basement and tend to sleep down there as well. I had traditional beds for them down there but was concerned that it was too cold during this bitter winter. I put the houses down there and they couldn't be happier. They have each claimed their own and now don't even look at the traditional beds. I'm super happy with my purchase.

I purchased this for a family member's friendly rescued barn cat right before the polar vortex rolled in, hoping to keep the poor kitty somewhat warm in the -30 degree temps. It's a cute little house, was very easy to put together, the heating pad was nice and soft and the kitty was happy to go in it. I set it up inside a garage - I'm not sure how long it would last in hard rain or strong winds, so I think it's best to have it in a somewhat protected area. But it did its job, I'm happy with the purchase!

My cat used to be an indoor cat but had to be put outdoors. When winter came, I worried about him. So I googled heated cat houses. I chose the K&H Outdoor heated Kitty House From Chewy.com for the price and I liked the reviews it was given. It came very quickly and just in time before the arctic blast arrived. Charlie loves his house and I no longer have to worry about him. It was so simple to set up and I liked the idea of it having 2 doors! It really amazed my husband at how well it works!

We bought this for a feral cat that showed up about a month ago. Don’t know if it has used it. The mat supplied and which is put inside the house does warm up - you can test it as per instructions by putting a pillow on the mat (this would simulate a car laying on it)and plugging in. After 20 minutes you put your hand in between the pillow and mat and feel the warmth. If you read instructions you will know to do this. Set up was quick - a couple of minutes.
