Just suggesting on a whim

Yeah, I thought about wrapping mine too, I read through a lot of articles and it seams to be mixed opinions 50/50 about this. Some say it will wear out or cause damage to the cats because they are getting too hot and not allowed to breath normally, which could cause them to wear out prematurely. I think even Berk does not recommend doing it. I'm still on the fence about this one.
