Quick Cat Shelter

Tiger talks - a lot! If you are a cat person, you will understand that he is talking about how much he likes his cat shelter in the winter time. :)
For the quick cat shelter.

Do you have a special cat at your home? How about a newly adopted animal that needs some additional shelter from the breezy cold air?


Whether your cat is inside or out there comes a time, in Texas, (yes, even in Texas) when it gets chilly and they like to curl up in a little ball.
So... We picked up groceries and a nice heavy box for the cat.

• Roll towels, small rugs or bath mats to make a circle then lay a bath mat on top.
•
Cut the box so it is open when you set it upside down on top of bath mats.
• Make it even cozier for them by adding a bath mat across the top of the  box.
• Set it in a sunny location if possible.
• If it needs to be anchored down put something on top of it like a brick or an empty terra cotta pot.

As long as it doesn't get wet, it is sturdy enough with a little weight on it. Tiger even sleeps on top of it when the temps start to turn warmer again or if it is a sunny day.

We don't need this all year long so it makes for a good seasonal item in our sun room where Tiger likes to hang out and sleep in the winter months. You could fancy it up with your own bath mats or towels with a color scheme but this works fine for us.

Oh my gosh. I have really got loose ends here. I am going back and checking and seeing comments that I never replied to! My bad! Maybe this year I will figure this system out!! You should see Tiger now. He gets into a bucket on a half wall that's high enough where the dog can't get to him.

    It's probably pretty obvious I love nature and art. Nature and landscape photography is a part of everyday life at the ranch. There are some pieces available as works of art that I would like to share with you!

    I only recommend Young Living essential oils because I am confident in their purity and the quality of their essential oils and other products. I am not a doctor. The information I post on this website is for educational purposes only. Young Living supplements are designed to improve nutrition; they are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. However, scientific research has established a connection between nutrition and we all know better nutrition leads to better health.

    Please consult with the medical professional of your choice whether using essential oils or not. Remember that being proactive and taking responsibility for your health is in your own best interest. Dig in, research and make wise choices. I encourage you to see what others have done with essential oils and supplements by visiting Oil-Testimonials at http://www.oil-testimonials.com/.

    I hope that this website and blog will provide you with helpful information and resources to achieve your desired goals!!

    Feel free to contact me if you have questions or concerns as I am here to help and hopefully point you in the right direction!​
