About Kate, Founder of Warmeeze

My name is Kate Wolfe, and thanks to my best friend, my husband, my life long dream of having my own horse came true. I have ridden horses off and on since I was a young girl, but it was not until I was 50 years old that I actually got my own horse. The last three years have been ones of constant learning and lots of injuries, but never giving up even though my family thought I should. I kept reading and working and learning and I finally found the right horse, Sophie. She was a beautiful Dun mare Quarter Horse and though our time together was short she taught me so much and gave me back my confidence. She is now my Angel Sophie,always with me and she was my inspiration for the Warmeeze.

The key to anything in life is to not give up - If you can dream it, you can do it!

How Did Warmeeze Come To Be?

Warmeezeknee warmers were born on a cold winter night while Kate sat on the cold barn floor holding heat packs to her mare, Sophie's, legs. She had arthritis in her front knee joints and the cold bothered her, Kate's hands are always cold so she put heat packs in her gloves and it was just on a whim one night while feeding her she decided to put the heat packs to her knees to see if she would tolerate them, she did and seemed to like the heat. So every night when Kate would feed she would sit on the barn floor and hold the heat packs to her knees. Kate decided there has to be a better way for both of them and that is how the Warmeeze came to be.

Kate has been a nurse for 35 years and somethings just do not differ whether it is human or animal, heat feels good to sore joints. The Warmeeze was designed for comfort not healing, and she has seen her horse Sophie stand and close her eyes after she has her Warmeeze on. The heat helps support blood flow to the area, helps to loosen the stiff joints and the muscles surrounding the joint. The heat makes it feel better to move and in the end that is what it is all about, making your horse feel good.

What Is Warmeeze?

A Warmeeze is a soft fleece wrap with inner pockets that hold disposable heat packs. The wraps can be used on knees and hocks to help with the stiffness and soreness that comes with arthritis. The colors for the Warmeeze are Rainbow Zebra, Light Pink Leopard, Brown Leopard, and Golden Brown Giraffe.

What Sizes Are Offered For Warmeeze?

There are three sizes of the Warmeeze - Small - will fit ponies, mini donkey's, the hocks on horses, these will use the hand warmer size heat pack. Regular - will fit an average horse - ie Quarter Horse, Standard Bred, Morgan, etc - these can use the hand warmer size and the body warmer size heat packs. Large - will fit your draft type horses, these can also use the hand warmer or body warmer size of heat packs. Any question about what size can be solved by calling and asking for Kate, I will be glad to answer any questions.

Where Do I Buy Heat Packets For Warmeeze?

The heat packs that are used in the Warmeeze can be found wherever hunting supplies are sold as well as hardware stores.

Do You Offer Warmeeze Horse Blankets?

Yes! We are excited to announce that we are making a Warmeeze Blanket, this will be out by February 2012. The blanket will be offered, at least initially, in one color, Black and White Zebra. The Warmeeze Blanket is designed for a couple of purposes. It can be used under a blanket to help provide warmth to a cold horse, there will be pockets not only along the spine but at the hips one each side by the ribs and on the withers. There will be lots of choices for where to apply the warmth. This blanket can also be used to loosen up the spine and the muscles along the spine to help keep your horse limber. For those who do manipulations on horses this would be a great tool. Things move back into place easier when everything is loosened up.
