-25.5℃ 的誤會
人類覺得舒服的溫度，對愛寵來說，可能是一場折磨。
我是個崇尚低碳的環保人士，夏天冷氣總克制地開在 25.5℃。直到那天，我看到短視頻上貓咪熱到吐舌頭的影片，驚覺不妙，轉頭看看自家愛寵——牠無精打采地癱在地上，肚皮死貼著瓷磚，肉墊全是汗。牠變得特別懶、食慾下降，甚至鑽進洗手台、躲進衣櫃不肯出來。
我慌了，當晚就把冷氣開到 20℃，自己蓋著厚被子睡覺。
隔天，牠感冒了。
看著牠有氣無力的樣子，我心疼得要命：**我們自以為的貼心，有時候是另一種傷害。**

-既然找不到，那就自己做
為了找一塊「溫度剛剛好」的墊子，我跑遍寵物店、刷了幾百頁網購，買回來的產品卻永遠走極端——要麼冰得像冰塊，愛寵踩上去直接嚇跑；要麼悶得發燙，大夏天還要牠躺在厚重棉墊上。
看著家裡那堆用不上、只能丟掉的浪費物資，我既焦慮又無奈。
為什麼這麼簡單的需求，市場上就是沒有？
「既然找不到，那就自己做一塊。」

- PCM：會呼吸的溫度
找了很久，我遇見了 **PCM 相變材料**。
它最神奇的地方在於：**低於 28℃ 自動蓄冷結晶，接觸體溫後溫和吸熱降溫。** 不用插電、不用長時間冰凍，放在陰涼處就能自己循環「充能」。
天氣太熱時，放進冰箱 30 分鐘，套上**萊賽爾棉（俗稱天絲棉）**外罩，就是一小時恰到好處的清爽——不冰、不刺激，只有溫柔的涼感。出門時隨手放陰涼處，它自己又會再度結冰。
終於不用再一邊擔心電費、一邊擔心牠中暑。總算輕鬆了。

-翻個面，四季都能用
既然要做，就不做換季就要丟的消耗品。
我在底層加上了銀鋁凸凹保溫複合布：
夏天或溫度較高時，正面用：-物理降溫，同時隔絕地面熱氣。
秋冬或溫度較低時，翻個面：-銀鋁層像保溫瓶一樣，被動鎖住愛寵自身的體溫。
搭配軟彈減壓支撐，愛寵的關節，也能被溫柔接住。一墊抵兩墊，少了浪費，多了四季的陪伴。

- The 25.5°C Misunderstanding
A temperature that feels comfortable to humans might be a struggle for our pets.
As an environmentally conscious person who values low-carbon living, I always keep my air conditioner at a modest 25.5°C in summer. That all changed one day when I saw a short video of a cat panting heavily from the heat — tongue out, just like a dog. Alarmed, I turned to look at my own pet.
There they were, listless and sprawled on the floor, belly pressed flat against the cool tiles, their paw pads sweaty. They had become unusually lethargic, lost their appetite, and even started hiding in the cool bathroom sink or retreating into dark closets to escape the heat.
I panicked. That night, I cranked the AC down to 20°C and tucked myself under a thick blanket, sleeping soundly.
The next day, they caught a cold.
Looking at their weak and lethargic look, my heart ached. What we think is thoughtful care can sometimes be another kind of harm.

- If I Can't Find It, I'll Make It Myself
Determined to find a pad with "just the right temperature," I visited every pet store I could find and scrolled through hundreds of online shops. But every product fell into the same extreme — either icy cold enough to scare my pet away the moment they stepped on it, or stuffy and overheating, forcing them to lie on a thick cotton pad even in the middle of summer.
Staring at that pile of unused, wasted products destined for the trash, I felt both anxious and helpless.
Why was such a simple need nowhere to be found?
"If I can't find it, I'll make one myself."

- PCM: Temperature That Breathes
After a long search, I discovered "PCM — Phase Change Material".
Its most remarkable property? -It automatically stores cooling energy and crystallizes below 28°C, then gently absorbs heat and cools when it comes into contact with body temperature. No electricity needed, no hours in the freezer — just place it in a cool, shaded spot and it recharges itself, cycle after cycle.
On extra hot days, pop it in the fridge for 30 minutes, slip on the Lyocell cotton (commonly known as Tencel cotton) cover, and you get an hour of perfectly balanced refreshment — not freezing, not shocking, just gentle coolness. Leave it in a cool spot when you head out, and it crystallizes again on its own.
Finally, I no longer had to worry about both the electricity bill and my pet overheating. What a relief.

-One Pad, All Seasons
If I was going to make this, it wouldn't be another disposable item you throw away when the season changes.
I added a "silver-aluminum embossed thermal composite fabric"to the bottom:
* Summer / warmer weather (Top side):Use for physical cooling while blocking heat from the ground.
* Autumn & winter / cooler weather (Flip over): The silver-aluminum layer acts like a thermos, passively trapping your pet's own body heat.
With soft, pressure-relieving support, your pet's joints are gently cradled too. One pad replaces two — less waste, more companionship, all year round.

-This Isn't Just a Pad, It's Their Throne
This pad saves me the hassle of seasonal replacements, cuts down on electricity bills, and even spares the costly vet visits — but more importantly, it truly delivers on my promise of a low-carbon lifestyle for the planet.
LQ Petpad rejects mass production and overstocked inventory. Every pad is individually hand-sewn after you place your order, with 60 fabric colors to choose from — tailored for your pet.
We never set out to make just another ordinary, assembly-line pet pad.
We set out to create something that combines love, technology, and sustainability — a throne, made just for them.
