Question
Hi, can UTH's be used with those plastic 'critter cages'? I'm scared it might melt the plastic due to the high temp.
Thanks!

Answer
Hello Jen,

No, I would not use an UTH on a plastic critter cage.  However, you could use a heating pad, that would work.  Just leave the cloth cover on the heating pad & place the critter keeper over the heating pad & that will be fine with no problem at all.
