Covers for ice pods?

[Her Nibship]

The sunny weather this weekend has got me thinking ahead to the summer when temperatures (may!) heat up even more. I was wondering, do Scratch & Newton ice pods need to have a cover (like you would wrap an ice pack in a tea towel or something when using it to put on a bump) so that the piggies aren't in direct contact with the cold surface, or does their fur serve this function? If they would benefit from a cover, would a cotton fabric be the best? I'm thinking not too thick and easy to wash and dry. Presumably fleece, whilst comfy, would be too hot in this situation.

I use an old pillow case to wrap around my ice pods

Old plastic bottles filled with water in the freezer then shove them in a old pair of socks works for me.
