So the heat decided to poop out in my house and it is currently 54F in here. Will watering (with room temp water) damage them since they may be in stress mode?

    Oh noo! I'm sorry that happened! Do you have an ETA of when it will be back on? It might be best to hold off on the watering until it warms up a bit in there.

      Nope. Waiting for technician to call back. My peace Lilly is very sad....I think she got some cold damage earlier in the winter from being too close to a window, but she looks extra sad right now.

    Aww you could try to make a humidity dome for some insulation, and warmth. They are super sensitive to cold.

      So the technician isn't coming for 3 days.....my upstairs is warmer. The light sucks, but I could move everyone upstairs so they aren't cold. Thoughts???

      That might be best for them to move them for a few days so they’re a little bit warmer.

    Maybe a couple space heaters?

      Don't want to burn cats. Son just helped me move all the plants upstairs where the heat is working. Of course the weak plants are my biggest concern....

      There are heaters that look like radiators that have a gentle heat. Take longer but probably safe for your cats.
