Cat Covey in Tuscaloosa, AL

Cream Cat Covey throw on a sofa, cat nested in the stay-open cave, shipping to Tuscaloosa, AL

About 48.7 miles southwest of Birmingham, Tuscaloosa is home to roughly 95,334 people — and a good number of cats who have worked out that the warmest place in the house is whoever is sitting still. Cat Covey is a throw with a cave sewn into the foot end, where that cat already wants to be.

How cold Tuscaloosa actually gets

Between October and April, Tuscaloosa averages an overnight low of 47.8°F and drops to 14.5°F at its coldest. That is 86 days — roughly 2.8 months — below 45°F. A cat's thermoneutral zone starts around 86°F, well above the 64–72°F most people keep a house at, so for a good part of the year a Tuscaloosa cat is mildly cold indoors even when you are comfortable. That is why it finds your feet, the laptop, the radiator and the sunbeam, in that order.

Yes — Cat Covey ships anywhere in the United States, including Tuscaloosa, AL. Free shipping on orders over $79.
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.
What is it made of?
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.
