I am also worried about my own animals. I have a few questions if you don't mind.
What type of controller were you using to regulate the heat?
Don't know the exact brand , from home depot.
How was the heat tape installed in the cage?
foil taped to the bottom
How was the cord connected to the tape?
it was soldered then taped over with electrical tape
Was the tape kinked anywhere?
no
Did you have a smoke alarm in the room?
yes
Were you present when it happened? If not how long had it been since you were last in your room?
no i was working and was in the room that morning at about 6 am and got home to the mess at about 6 pm
Did you notice any smell prior that could have warned you?
no
Again, I am very sorry for your loss. I think anyone who uses heat tape can learn from your experience and look forward to hearing from you.
