Outdoor Cats Are Using $500 Starlink Satellite Dishes as Self- 
Heating Beds | Smart News | Smithsonian Magazine

'Starlink satellite dishes have a self-heating feature to melt  
snow, which may be why cats are drawn to it, reports the  
Guardian. Engineers created this feature to stop snow from  
interfering with the signal, but can the dish handle a pile of  
felines? On Twitter, Taylor says five cats snuggling on his  
dish interrupts his video streaming and "slows everything  
down."
