Because in science, cold doesn't exist. You can't make cold, you can only remove heat.

But in human language we've made words to describe the absences too. Dark is the absence of light. Cold is the absence of heat. Vacuum is the absence of all material.

So insulation can't keep the cold out, since the cold doesn't exist. What you can do though is keep the heat in. Heat is a real thing. You can make heat.

Why does a carpeted floor feel different to your bare feel than a bare floor feels on a cold morning?

Heat is transferred from the soles of your feet to a cold floor, by conduction. A rug forms an insulating layer, so the temperature of the top surface of the rug will be much nearer your skin temperature. The temperature drop will be through the rug instead of the layers of your skin.

It depends on how you mean it.

What causes the heat?

If you have poor insulation in your house/apartment, say by the doors, and windows, that will allow cold air to come in and make the heating get worse. If you can fix where drafts come in, you will improve the heating in your household.
