5 Reasons Why Cats LOVE Our Outdoor Cat Houses

Posted by

With the wide variety of cat house options available today, it can be tough to find the perfect one. Should you make a DIY cat house? What about just buying a small dog house? Navigating through all your options can be frustrating and time-consuming. We think that buying a pre-made feral cat house could be your best option.

Here are 5 reasons why cats LOVE our outdoor cat houses.

1) Cats love how warm the houses are.

In the winter, cats need a warm, insulated cat shelter. Our carpenters insulate every house with Thermal Ply on all 4 sides. If you live in a colder region, you can even add an outdoor-rated heating pad. Your cat will be cozy and dry on those cold, stormy nights!

2) Cats love to shop local.

If your cats are anything like our cats, they believe that North American made products are the way to go. Investing our dollars here means more jobs for our fellow citizens today and a brighter future for our children tomorrow. Each of our houses is handmade in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. Buying one of our cat houses is a great way to shop local!

3) Cats love the extra space.

Let's face it--some cat shelters are uncomfortably small. Dr. M.A. Crist of Texas A&M University says that, in winter, outdoor animals need a well-insulated structure that is large enough to curl up inside. 

Our outdoor cat houses come in sizes from small to large and can fit anywhere from 1-4 cats or even 2 small breed dogs.

4) Cats love their home’s security and privacy.

According to the Regional Animal Services of Kings County, outdoor cats need a “safe, warm shelter that is inaccessible to predators such as coyotes and loose dogs.” Our outdoor cat shelters offer your cats a safe place to eat, sleep, and hang out.

In addition, Alley Cat Allies recommends that the doorway “should only be big enough for cats—about 6-8 inches wide to help keep out other animals.” All our cat houses have an opening of 6” to 7” wide to ensure that only your cats can enter them. 

5) Cats love our custom options.

Often, cats have specific preferences about what they want in a house. For the cat who doesn’t like to get wet, we’ve got a Vinyl Door Flap. Your feral cat can stay dry and still look outside. If your kitty likes a Round Door better than a rectangular door, you can add that option.

Is your feral cat nervous about being backed into a corner? Give her an alternate exit by adding an Extra Door.
