I read other reviews about this product and I decided to buy two for my "adopted outside" kitties. I put the product in the microwave as directed and it did not heat up that much - it was barely warm. I was nervous about microwaving it for a longer period of time because of the warnings on the label. A couple of the cats did lay on it, but others did not. I think this is a good idea, but poor execution.

I bought the Snugglesafe Heatpad after another brand I used & liked leaked. This product does not stay warm as long as it claims, but for the most part it is a good heatpad. It is definitely easy to use. Six minutes in (my) microwave and it's ready to go. It would be nice if it were flexible so it would conform to the pet's bed. It is a bit hard but if it is under too many covers to "soften" it, it does not radiate as well. It came with a cover which I did not know, but I took the "offer" to purchase the heatpad with a (separate) cover, so now I have two covers. Hope the heatpad lasts long enough to need two covers! I used mine in a covered shed, so I doubt it would keep a pet warm all night if outside.

This is a great product that can literally stay warm all night. My indoor cats love it, but I found out about it from friends who do animal rescue and feral cat T&R. They use them while feral cats are being acclimated to a new location during the colder months; the cats are in a "hutch", or large cage, while they get used to their surroundings and are given these disks for warmth. Be careful to make sure you follow the directions, overheating the gel will cause the outer plastic casing to bubble up and then you'll have to throw it away. I only wish it was wider and flatter to be able to put under a blanket more easily- the disk is smaller than an animal so they're laying on a lump in the blanket. Still, my cats do not seem to mind and it's kind of funny to watch them all try to pile up on one disk while another is heating up.

This product worked wonderfully with my new puppy. It heats up and I place it under his bedding and it is still nice and warm 10 hours later in the morning. If anything it is a little hard and makes his bed a little lumpy - but it doesnt't bother him. I take it out in the morning because he would love to chew on it and that would not be good. Don't buy a cover because it comes with one in the packaging.

I got this to keep my dog warm in his kennel on winter car rides. The hardness of the plastic makes it seem uncomfortable to lay on so I rest it against the side of his kennel. Charlie will snuggle up to it to keep warm when he's in there. He really seems to like it. It does stay warm for quite a while. It was in the car for several hours on a very cold day (less than 10 degrees) and it was still warm when we came back to it. It comes with a fleece cover so no need to by one.
