    Can kitty get on the roof if it? That would be amazing because they like to perch up high. Love the idea of the solar and warming pad, then in the summer, kitty could enjoy a bladeless fan.
    You should sell these. I'd buy for my feral colony.

    Hello,
    I stumbled upon your site while searching for plans to build an outdoor insulated cathouse. This is going to be my first attempt doing something of this nature and I was wondering if you guys had written out instructions - IE: what size cuts, how many, etc etc. I did watch the video, but I do well with written instructions.
    Hoping you do so I can make one for the strays I've seen in my yard this winter.
    Thank you!

Throughout this coming year, we'll be interviewing NEW makers, but also re-editing the previous interviews into separate videos, giving us the chance to show more of their responses.
      Some makers sent us 15 minutes + of footage, but we had to edit it down for the show. This time we can show you the whole thing! So make sure you're subscribed!

      We certainly can, and do. But he doesn't always want to come in. He was born out there, and he likes the outdoors. We did end up adding a heated mat that keeps his condo nice and warm through the really cold months. He's got it pretty good no matter where he wants to be.

    Nice house. Great name for a cat :). Hopefully the animal nazis won’t knock on your door for having that cat outside. People forget cats grow a nice warm fuzzy layer of for it cold weather. They stay cozy. Live confidently and peacefully

    • @MakerBreak
      @MakerBreak  4 роки тому +1

      Thanks, and you're right.
      Murder Cloud has lived his whole 12 year life outside. He's out in the woods every day, he hunts all kinds of animals, and he EATS them when he catches them. :) That's rare of course, and we feed him cat food daily.
      Something a lot of people don't realize is that if a cat is exposed to enough sunlight daily, their system realizes when the sun goes down early (the Fall) and they start to grow an "Undercoat". It's a layer of short hairs that keep the cat warm. It's the sunlight that triggers this behavior, not the temperature, which is why indoor cats do the same thing if they live in a house with a lot of sunlight. Crazy right?
      Murder Cloud has slept through 10-degree weather and didn't have a problem. He's always had a place to sleep that's layered in Straw, which helps him retain heat through the night. This new house I built is FAR better insulated, and I'm adding a heating pad that will help with the REALLY cold nights.
