As the name suggests, cat radiator beds are designed to clip on to radiators. This has two advantages – they are warm places to sleep when the radiator is on, and they are also raised off the ground. Cats like being up high as it helps make them feel secure, which comes from their instinct to protect themselves. A high sleeping position gives them an advantage for spotting any potential dangers around them.

The eco-mode means the heater only heats up when your pet rests on it, so doesn’t waste heat when your cat isn’t using the bed. When in use, it warms the surface to around 10-15 degrees C above ambient air temperature.

Are Heated Cat Beds Safe?Unlike most of the cat window beds in this review, the Window Sill Cat Bed from Trixie doesn’t actually attach to the window.
