I had this happen the night our power went out. See if this fixes it. You know where the plug goes into the pad itself? Unplug that and wait a few seconds. Do the same with where it plugs into the electrical outlet. Plug it back in as firmly as you can. Wrap some electrical tape around the pad-to-plug connection firmly. I think in our case what happened had nothing to do with the power outage itself, but moisture from the snow and driving winds forcing it in prevented it from making a good connection when the power came back on. Let me know if that works. They should probably be fine without it but since I've never had Silkies before I don't know enough about them to just tell you to let them be. They won't need it very high, just enough to take any chill off. From what I understand because their feathers feel more like hair than actual feathers, they can feel the chill a little more. Someone correct me if I'm wrong here.....
