My fiance tends to keep our house freezing freezing with the thermostat set at about 62 degrees… I have learned to live with it by wearing blazers & moderate socks year round; However, my associate and I are currently pet sitting our neighbor’s pet & its a sphynx, then the awful bald kitty is always freezing cold.
It is hard enough to keep a bald pet moderate under normal thermostat setting. It is nearly impossible under super freezing settings with the a/c blasting all afternoon; Even with the pet wearing a little blazer, she is still super cold, then finally, I turned the thermostat up a few degrees & set it to 68. The pet got comfortable by my fiance is not. He is all hot & keeps complaining. He has no right too. He was the one who volunteered to watch the pet after all. I considered using a space heater to keep the pet moderate in one room of the house but I am uneasy she might start a fire. That’s why I decided against doing that. Instead, I used a heated blanket to keep the pet moderate while cranking the a/c back down to a colder temperature, however now the pet & the fiance are both comfortable. I am comfortable enough with my blazer on however this whole thing has got me seriously considering getting zone control for our house so that weird parts of the house can be kept at weird hot & cold temperatures all of the time. Then I can be comfortable, my fiance can be comfortable, & the pet would be comfortable too if my associate and I ever watch her again.
