Last night the power went out here. It was only off for about an hour, but it made me realize that I have no idea what to do about my young Leo's UTH if there is an extended power loss.
Any of you have any idea of what to do in this situation?

It's never happened here, but I have heard of people using heat pack wrapped in towels placed in the cage, or even taking the leos out to the car and using that for heat/ac.

Last time our power went out I used a hot water bottle wrapped in a towel to provide heat. It didnt do much for the air temp, but it provided lots of belly heat, and it was easy to change every few hours as it cooled off.
