- Birds & mammals in hospital cages & boxes.
- Dog & cat beds.
The Cosy Heat Pad can be used in the following situations:
- Hanging pouches for orphaned marsupials: Place a pad at the back of the pouch. Put insulation between the pad and the animal.
- Veterinarians use operating tables and in recovery rooms
- Reptiles: Place at one end of the enclosure so the reptile can move on or off the heated area. Cover with a layer of sand or flat rock

Directions:
The Cosy Heat Pad plugs into a standard 240-volt electrical outlet. The pad works by gradually heating the area where the animal sits. The animal should be able to move away from the heated area if it feels uncomfortable. The heater produces a temperature on the pad surface of about 15-20°C above room temperature. Monitor the temperature where the animal rests with a thermometer. It should be between 20°C and 35°C, depending on the age and type of animal. Seek advice from a veterinarian or experienced animal carer if unsure of your animal’s needs.
When the room temperature is less than 10°C
Animals should be as close as practicable to the pad surface.
When the room temperature exceeds 10°C
Animals should be insulated from the pad surface with layers of woollen fabric. The thickness of insulation required will depend on the room temperature and should be adjusted so that the animal is comfortable.
Heat stress can occur if the temperature is too high.
This device is fitted with a cut-off switch that limits the surface temperature of the pad, preventing excessively high temperatures.
Easy to Use:
This heater produces a temperature on the pad surface of about 20°C above room temperature.
When the room temperature is less than 10°C.
Animals should be as close as practicable to the pad surface.
When the room temperature exceeds 10°C.
Animals should be insulated from the pad surface by inserting layers of woollen fabric between them and the pad. The thickness of insulation required will depend on the room temperature and should be adjusted so that the animal appears comfortable.
Measure the temperature where the animal rests with a thermometer. It should be between 25°C and 35°C, depending on the age and type of animal. Seek professional advice if unsure of your animal's needs. Young animals can rapidly suffer heat stress if the temperature is too high.
Cleaning:
The outer PVC cover can be cleaned with a damp cloth or sponge. Unplug the device from the power outlet when cleaning. Do not immerse the pad in water.
