It's unlikely our local coyotes would come that close to the house, but there is an "escape door" in case they were to get cornered at the opening (which is very small). It would take a pretty vicious animal to get these cat houses apart. And a coyote or fox are probably the only major threat.

Looks like we got 4-5" of fresh snow last night! (I had shoveled off the patio table so we could kind of judge how much new snow fell).

Back again tonight... unfortunately, it ran even when it sees us through the house window. So it might be feral. But it looks so happy in the shelter! ☺️

Aw, well our teen son bought the shelter for a stray last year. That stray is now inside with us and living a life of luxury! 🀣

No, we've had it out since October and this is our first "guest". It is up against the house.

I don't know whose sweet baby this is, but it slept in our heated cat shelter all night. And ate and drank a LOT. Poor thing. So glad it had a safe place to rest. It does look well-fed and healthy.

I believe this is an immature Cooper's Hawk... it got a squirrel and a songbird today. πŸ₯Ί But that is nature.

Brrr! Same here. And then at night we have deer, cats, opossums, raccoons, and even mice drinking from it. πŸ₯Ί Water = life. You may be able to use one of the lower watt heaters, but this one only turns on if the water temp gets below 35Β°F and turns off when not needed. πŸ™‚

They're pretty expensive but it's been worth the money. I think this one is $70. Though it might be cheaper on a different site.
