Revainrating 5 out of 5

Cats love this very beautiful house! You can isolate it yourself by following a few simple steps.

I love this house I bought for several cats that live in my backyard. They broke into this house right after I dropped him off outside. I went to the store and bought some insulation panels for about $3.98 I think and I cut some of them in half and laid them on the floor of the house and I used double sided tape to secure the panels to the floor glue. Walls in the house and please remember when you cut the sheets they don't have to be perfect. So we have an isolated cat house. After that I opened up a few small packets of Mylar rescue blankets that you can buy on Amazon and paid for the soil that lays on top of the insulation sheets that I put on the floor of the house to make the house warmer because mylar holds those warmth inside. After that I opened up a bag of straw/hay and spread it out on top of the mylar and insulating sheets on the bottom which create three layers of warmth. The next step I had leftover was a green floor rug that I have on my porch, so I used what was left and layered it on top of the other three layers. I then put a blanket over him, along with a rug and a warming pet pillow. Now we have a beautiful, warm and soft cat house indoors. I have stone pavers which you can buy at Lowes for about $1.04 and I put one on each side of the floor of the house to raise the house and I also had two plain bricks from Lowes which are thirty-seven cents each Cost each and I stacked two on top of each other outside the front door and took a small step for the cats to get inside. The final step in this process: I got a cheap blue tarp from the dollar store that I folded in half and placed over the house so it would pull the roof down and cover the sides of the house, and then I did each put a brick on it. sides of the house to secure it and you can also place the stone in a ziplock bag and place it under layers of mylar, straw and carpet to weigh down the house if you are worried about strong winds moving it. I really like this house and I love looking out the back window and watching the kittens come and go. They use this kennel more than the other two cat kennels they have. I want to thank the seller for sending it out with next day delivery which I didn't expect and I'm really grateful for that because it got here so quickly. When assembling, you may need two people to hold one side, or grab something to hold one side while trying to assemble the other side. This is an inexpensive house and I plan to buy another one when I have the money and the kittens really appreciate it. **Update*** August 20, 2015 I bought another one and it was worth it. The only problem was that this time when I tried to assemble it, it was quite difficult to assemble the bottom and it wasn't as easy as last time. It was so uncomfortable that I was sweating. and was so angry! I managed to collect it. It's best to be assembled with two people and please assemble it outside or in the garage as I couldn't get mine out of the door and had to take the roof apart to do so. I'm still glad the house is serving its purpose.
