K&H Outdoor Heated Kitty House
Purchase the shelter.

Advantages: waterproof vinyl backing, easy to assemble, 2 exits, thermostat-controlled, heated floor pad, comfy

Plastic "Igloo" Shelter

Advantages: Pre-made and can be purchased at most pet stores.

Easy

Styrofoam Cooler Shelter

Advantages: Styrofoam cooler is available from hardware stores, grocery stores, restaurants, etc. Simple to make.

Possible Drawbacks: Lightweight - provides less protection from predators than a wooden structure. Cats may scratch styrofoam.

As with many of our low cost shelter options, this shelter is not weatherproof, and will require more upkeep then some of the more permanent and professionally built shelters.

Try reinforcing this shelter by taping heavy duty lawn and garbage bags around the outside of it, to provide added protection from rain and snow.

Special Thanks to Indy Feral.
