Roo's electric blanket

Roo generally snuggles up in bed with us
on cold nights, but sometimes she likes to be on her own,
so we got her this little single bed with an electric blanket.
Clearly she appreciates it a lot!
Actually she's wanted to spend quite a lot of time on her own recently, as animals generally do when they don't feel well. She's been suffering a rather painful bladder infection, and there's still a little blood in her urine. Fortunately X-rays showed no sign of cancer or any other major problem, but of course with a 16 year old it's still a bit of a worry.
At least her appetite has returned, and now she just has to continue oral medicine for a while, which means more bitten fingers for me, but still!
