My cat likes to sleep next to my small portable space heater in the winter as the house can be quite cold.
I think the floors are cold on my cat’s feet and they like to warm them up next to the heating device.
They seem to stay pretty warm for the most part, but when it gets under the freezing temp the cats need a little extra boost to stay warm. They come into my bedroom around 1am and nestle next me when I sleep to stay warm and to keep me warm. I sleep with no heating in my room as I like it cold in there and sleep better without any type of heating device to keep me warm. I like to pile a bunch of blankets on top of me and that pretty much warms me up even on the coldest of winter days. I don’t have heated floors and in the morning I have to wear wool socks because the floors are ice cold and it feels like you are walking on a frozen lake. I was thinking about getting them but when I heard how much they cost I opted for a pair of mom’s homemade wool knitted socks. I think the socks do a great job of warming up my feet and they also save me a lot of money on potential heating costs. The rates for heating and cooling the home have gone up too high so creative measures are necessary. I will go clean the HEPA filter in my furnace now and get out of here.
