Outdoor Cat House

When frost settles in, the porch cat or community cat you look after needs a dry place to curl up. The TailWise Outdoor Cat House is an elevated, waterproof cat shelter for outdoor, barn and feral cats, giving them a raised, weather-resistant retreat through the cold, wet months. A push-through door flap makes it easy to come and go, and a side window lets them keep watch over the yard.

A sturdy metal frame lifts the shelter above damp grass, puddles and snow. The waterproof Oxford fabric shell and pitched roof help rain run off, and reflective foil lining in the roof and door flap helps retain body heat and keep drafts out. A cardboard box soaks through and sits on the cold ground, while this shelter sets up in minutes with no tools or nails, folds flat again when warmer weather returns, and is light enough to move as favorite spots change.

Choose size M or L to suit your yard, porch or barn, in Black, Dark Gray or Army Green. The house has no electrical parts, so on freezing nights add straw or pet-safe outdoor bedding inside for extra comfort. Set a little food nearby to help shy cats find it, and keep an eye on how they use it during the first few days. Check the shelter often, especially after heavy snow, keep the entrance clear, and wipe it clean with a damp cloth.
