Gorgeous Two-Story Cat House with a Roof… This One’s Too Darn Cute!

By

In addition to our much loved inside cats, we have a healthy number of much loved outside cats (good thing we live in a rural area!). There are several feral cat families in our area I feed and look after (I even name every single one of them and know when I haven’t seen one in a day or two).

Since we live in the “country,” we also get occasional “drop off” cats (I could ring people’s necks that drop off animals to fend for themselves). Some of the drop offs and some of the ferals that I’m able to win over, actually move onto our carport and patio.

One of my sons-in-law has built three different large houses for them – they use them year-round but are especially thankful for them in the winter… probably because we heat them during the cold months.

If you don’t have someone in your family who is both an animal lover and happens to be gifted with woodworking, this gorgeous Two Story Cat House with a Roof (Amazon link to the house) is just what you’re outside cat(s) need!

The last time I looked at this gorgeous house, there was even a coupon for $10 off!

Cat House with Scratcher and the Always Irresistible Catnip!

By

This adorable Cat House with Scratcher (it has a scratching board interior) and Bonus Catinip is one of the cutest things I’ve seen in awhile. Well, not counting the husband, kids, grandbabies, and (of course) cats.

I love buying these types of houses for our cats every now and then (they’re so inexpensive buying them frequently is no problem) – they love it even more than I do. They have so much fun exploring, scratching, and hiding from one another.

As soon as I saw this one, I threw it right into the Amazon cart without a second thought.

It’s just too cute!

 

  • Cats love this pet bed house. Interior den-like hiding space for napping promotes nesting instinct. Promotes Paw health: The scratching motion of their feet keeps their paws healthy and strong, especially important to kittens, Adult and active pets
  • Catnip included: sprinkle some organic catnip on the cardboard while introducing the pad to a cat to entice your cats to scratch
  • Keep cats entertained and off of furniture. Easy to assemble all instructions and parts Included
  • Size: 19. 5x14x11 inches. Love it or money back

At $15, this Cat House with Scratcher (Amazon link) is a MUST HAVE!

 

ADORABLE and Very Affordable Cat House from ASPCA

By

How adorable is this little cat house (Amazon link)? I love the designs on the sides (and the too cute for its own good chimney).

I’ve always looked, first of all, at the safety of cat furniture. This is most definitely safe. Then, I look at how much I think my cats will enjoy (and use) the furniture in question. I can easily see all of my cats enjoying this adorable little house. While it wouldn’t be sturdy enough for my outside cats, I definitely plan to get several (it’s a great price) for my inside babies.

Last of all, I do consider how it will look in the home. While it is most certainly not something that would make or break the deal (after all, I care more about my cats’ happiness and entertainment than I do decor), I do love it when cat furniture is cute and attractive.

This cat house certainly is that!

I also love that the “floor” is a scratching board – we all know how much cats love to scratch!

I had just been looking at a cardboard type house for cats on Amazon that was 5 times as much as this one is. Given that cats are tiny toddlers in fur, I didn’t want to pay so much for something that would probably not last two months, so I kept looking. Not only is this cat house (Amazon link) cuter and less expensive, it takes up less space – so, if you have more than one cat, you can buy however many you need.

After all, each furry baby likes having their very own space.

Details

  • ASPCA 2 in 1 cat house with scratching Board interior. Private place for your cat to rest and play
  • Cats love this pet bed house. Interior den-like hiding space for napping promotes nesting instinct. Promotes Paw health: The scratching motion of their feet keeps their paws healthy and strong, especially important to kittens, Adult and active pets
  • Catnip included: sprinkle some organic catnip on the cardboard while introducing the pad to a cat to entice your cats to scratch
  • Keep cats entertained and off of furniture. Easy to assemble all instructions and parts Included

Gorgeous Gray Cat Bed (LOVE THIS!)

By

I have recently become infatuated with the color gray (grey.. whichever spelling you prefer!). There’s just something kind of “ritzy” and sophisticated about it. Furniture, walls, towels,dishes… you name it, I suddenly want it to be gray!

So you can imagine my goggle-eyed reaction when I saw this handsome Gray and White Cat Bed/House on Amazon earlier. I had one cat in my lap and one on my computer desk and I told them both, “This one’s going into the cart!”

They acted like they cared, but since it didn’t involve tuna, their reaction was very low-key.

Description

  • Cozy nap pad and private cat lair in one – and it sets up in seconds!
  • Fabric side walls create a sturdy perch for your cat, yet fold flat for storage
  • A cushy polyester pillow and a fleece base mat are removable and washing machine safe
  • Easy to assemble, easy to stow, and designed to perfectly stack in sets of two
  • Size: 16.5 W x 16.5 L x 19.25 H. Include 1 cube, 1 top cushion, and 1 fur fleece mat.

Cat Tree Haven: Great Gift Idea that Might Save Your Christmas Tree

By

One of our cats recently had kittens so, needless to say, we’re already thinking about how “interesting” Christmas will be this year. The gifts, bows, gift tags, ornaments, candy canes, and shiny decorations throughout the house are going to be fascinating enough for these little balls of energy, but I have a feeling the Christmas tree might prove to be a nightmare.

How do you keep a tree standing when three little toddlers with fur are intent on bringing it down?!

When I saw this amazing Cat Haven Condo on Amazon earlier, I was struck with an idea… diversion! I mean it often works for children who walk on two legs, why not children who walk… make that RUN… on four?!

  • Cat condo designed for cats up to 32 pounds in weight. Easy to assemble cat furniture, less than 15 minutes, no tools required.
  • Cat tree house intended for indoor use, fits great in any room.
  • Cat tower perfect for jumping, scratching, climbing, and relaxing.
  • Made from pressed wood, carpet and artificial leaves, great for cats’ innate instinct of hiding within nature. Made in USA and Imported.
  • Square base, 24 inches covered with artificial turf and 3 carpeted perches 22, 22 and 18 inches in diameter.

See Cat Haven Condo for a closer look (as well as adorable shots of cats enjoying their haven).


Double-Decker Cat Tree and Tree House

By

The great-looking FurHaven Double-Decker Cat Tree pictured above is everything I love about a cat tree – it’s beautiful, provides plenty of fascinating things to keep a cat’s interest, and (best of all) is extra sturdy and safe.

The tower is covered with soft, plush fabric and two cat houses (or rooms?) are featured. Kind of like an upstairs and a downstairs.

  • Posts covered with sisal rope for scratching and scratch training – making it a cat tree, 2 cat houses, and multiple scratching posts all in one!
  • Spring ball wand toy, hanging ball, and hanging mouse toy – all of us cat parents know what hits these are with inquisitive cats.

See  FurHaven Double-Decker Cat Tree for more information. This one’s just extra special

Gorgeous Red and White Outdoor Cat Condo

By

The beautiful red outdoor cat condo pictured above is probably the next thing I order from Amazon. I just absolutely love it! It’s so cute I think I’d want it in my yard even if I didn’t have outside cats.

Heck, if I could find the right spot, I’d want one for our inside cats as well.

  • Weatherproof cat/small dog house for outdoor use.
  • Fit large cats or small dogs. Inner dimension of the house:27.5″Lx17.5″Wx20″H
  • Easy to assemble with pre-drilled holes.
  • Bottom floor can be removed for easier cleaning,top roof cannot be opened.
  • Ideal shelter for outdoor cats or small dogs.

One of our outdoor cats (a beautiful orange cat named “Rita Hayworth”) loves to hang out on our back deck – in a different spot from the other outside cats. I’m thinking she’d love this crib!

This adorable little home would be ideal for feral cats, too. They’d greatly appreciate the wonderful place to stay dry and safe.

How to Keep Outside Cats Warm this Winter

By

Cordless Heating Thermal Bed for Cats

While we have one inside cat (Alexa the Diva), we also have two beloved outside cats (Hannah and Queen Fatima).  Needless to say, when cold weather hits, thoughts of keeping our outside little girls warm are in the front of our collective minds. We live outside the city limits with a garage and an abandoned barn beside us.  Fatima is wonderful about heading off to the garage (which we keep cracked for them to get in and out of) or even the barn, but Hannah?

She always seems afraid that she’s going to miss something and doesn’t leave the carport until snow, ice, hail, or a tornado force her into the garage.  Even then, as soon as the coast is clear, she’s back to her favorite spot by the back door!

If Alexa weren’t so set in her ways, the solution would be obvious – bring them inside.  But, alas, Alexa claims “First come, first served” rights and there you have it.  She who must be obeyed…. must be obeyed.

Don’t worry about Miss Hannah, though. I have become quite the accomplished tent builder for my adorable little girl. Last winter was ridiculously mild here in Kentucky, so my Abdul the Tent-maker skills served Hannah well. However, I’ve heard that this winter is supposed to be a really bad one, so I’m trying to step up my game.

One of the things I’ve found so far is the Slumber Pet Thermal Cat Mat – Color Gray (shown above). This thermal mat is available in gray, blue, or beige.

Thermal Cat Bed Features:

  • Thermal cat mat keeps cats warm and comfortable without the use of electricity
  • This cozy mat features a lightweight core that actually reflects pet’s own body heat back to the animal
  • Provides soothing comfort to cats, kittens, aging pets, nursing females, or animals recovering from illness or injury
  • Machine-washable pad features a leopard-print motif that reverses to solid black berber fleece and it includes a hangtag
  • Measures 22-inch length by 18 1/2-inch width

Product Description

This cozy mat features a lightweight core that actually reflects pet’s own body heat back to the animal. Provides soothing comfort to cats, kittens, aging pets, nursing females, or animals recovering from illness or injury. Machine-washable pad features a leopard-print motif that reverses to solid black berber fleece. Machine wash in cold water on gentle cycle. Line dry. It includes a hangtag. Available in gray color. Measures 22-inch length by 18 1/2-inch width.

I also found the K&H Outdoor Kitty House, Heated (pictured on the left – click through for different… much larger… views).  This Outdoor Heated Kitty House is made with 600 denier nylon and features a vinyl backing that makes it waterproof.

Your cat’s own warm little  house comes with and accommodates a Lectro Soft Outdoor Heated Kitty Bed that uses only 20-watts. The roof hangs over the 2 doors to keep cats warm, safe and dry. Easy to assemble with velcro walls and a zippered roof.

My favorite part (aside from the whole keeping cats warm and dry part) is this: There’s a back door! Two exits mean your cat can’t be trapped by another cat, a dog that likes to play too tough, or skunk that wants to snuggle.

 

Outdoor Heated Cat House Features:

  • Perfect for any outdoor cat
  • Waterproof for use anywhere outdoors
  • Two exits so pet can not be trapped by predators
  • No tools needed to assemble
  • MET Listed and 1-year warranty
