How big is Cat Covey?

60 inches by 50 inches — a standard throw. The pouch at the foot end runs roughly 18 inches wide in production, deep enough for two average cats or one large cat plus your feet.

Micro Mink fleece on the outside at 280–320 GSM, with a Sherpa fleece pouch lining at 200–250 GSM and a thermal layer between for the foot well. Machine washable.

Will my cat actually use it?

Cats prefer enclosed, covered resting places — a box, a bag, a cave bed. The pouch has a deep gusset and a semi-rigid entry seam so it holds its shape instead of collapsing flat, which is what makes it read as a cave rather than a fold of fabric.

Do Cats Get Cold? What the Temperature Actually Means to Them

Yes, and at temperatures most people would describe as comfortable.

The numbers

A cat's thermoneutral zone is roughly 86–97°F (30–36°C). Most homes sit at 64–72°F. That gap is not trivial — it means a cat is mildly cold indoors for most of the year, which is why heat-seeking is a full-time occupation rather than a winter one.

Signs a cat is cold

Tucking paws and tail under the body, sleeping curled tightly rather than stretched, seeking laps and radiators more than usual, and choosing higher spots where warm air collects.

Who feels it worst

Hairless and thin-coated breeds, kittens, seniors, and cats that are underweight or recovering from illness. A senior cat that suddenly wants to be on you constantly may be feeling the cold more than it used to.

What actually helps

Enclosure matters as much as insulation — a covered space traps the cat's own body heat. A cave beats an open bed, and a cave in the warm part of the room beats both.
