Warm, dry shelter

If you must keep your cat outside, or you manage a feral colony, now is the time to create suitable shelters for your cats. Although some people think cats won´t use some sort of house, I know that a cat will find, and defend a place that is warm and dry during the cold winter months. Shelters with small round openings-those just big enough for a cat to fit into, will attract them quicker. This gives them security that nothing larger than themselves can come into the shelter; it will be easier to defend when they are inside, and the small opening will help keep the wind and precipatiation out. GURU´S NOTE: Be sure to have some means of changing the bedding; such as some sort of trap door, or a removable top.
