Cats have a normal body temperature of 38C to 39C, which is just slightly higher than humans, and having descended from the desert-dwelling African wildcat, tend to prefer warm temperatures to ...
VCA Hospitals says cats are polyestrous, which means they go through estrus (heat) several times during their fertile season. A cat’s fertile season actually depends on where they live!
No, heated outdoor cat houses are designed to be energy-efficient. Most use low-wattage heating pads, typically consuming between 10 to 40 watts — about the same as a small light bulb.
The SET index is defined as the equivalent dry bulb temperature of an isothermal environment at 50% relative humidity in which a subject, while wearing clothing standardized for activity concerned, would have the same heat stress (skin temperature) and thermoregulatory strain (skin wettedness) as in the actual test environment.
When the temperature is 30 °C (86 °F) and the dew point is 15 °C (59 °F), the humidex is 34. If the temperature remains 30 °C (86 °F) and the dew point rises to 25 °C (77 °F), the humidex rises to 42. The humidex is higher than the U.S. heat index at equal temperature and relative humidity. The humidex formula is as follows: [7] [8]
Domestic cats have a considerably higher thermoneutral zone, ranging between 30 and 38 °C. [10] In horses, the lower critical temperature is 5 °C while the upper critical temperature depends on the definition used. [11] Their thermoneutral zone is roughly 5–30 °C (41–86 °F). [12]

Two cats sharing body heat. The normal body temperature of a cat is between 38.3 and 39.0 °C (100.9 and 102.2 °F). [16] A cat is considered febrile (hyperthermic) if it has a temperature of 39.5 °C (103.1 °F) or greater, or hypothermic if less than 37.5 °C (99.5 °F). For comparison, humans have an average body temperature of about 37.0 ...
