Yes, that's exactly its job. In winter, what makes a cat suffer most outdoors isn't just the cold: it's the wind and damp, which make him lose his warmth even faster.

The shelter tackles both. Its padded walls block out the cold and wind, and its roof overhangs to keep rain away from the openings. Sitting on a frame, it's also raised off the ground, where cold and damp rise the most.

Inside, a reflective lining sends the cat's own warmth back to him instead of letting it escape. The shelter doesn't heat up on its own: it's the cat's own warmth that stays with him, in a dry, sheltered spot.

What this means for him:

  • A spot sheltered from the wind
  • A roof that keeps rain away from the openings
  • A less cold floor beneath him
  • His own warmth staying with him

Yes, and for good reason. As soon as the cold sets in, a cat instinctively looks for a dry, sheltered, warm place to rest. The shelter offers exactly that.

What reassures him even more: two openings. He's never trapped and can leave whenever he wants. A house closed off with a single entrance feels like a carrier, whereas here he always has a way out.

Placed somewhere he already knows, he adopts it at his own pace: a few days for some, a few weeks for the more cautious ones. Just give him time, and never force it: he's the one who chooses his refuge.

And the day he settles in for the night, you'll know he's warm and dry.

Rebecca V. (Verified review)

He's adopted it

"I've been feeding a neighbourhood cat for almost two years. He ignored the shelter at first, but around ten days later I found him asleep inside it. Now I see him go in almost every evening."

Jessica R. (Verified review)

Really good quality

"The shelter arrived just as shown in the photos and feels sturdier than I expected. I set it up against the terrace wall and my cat went in within the first week. Very happy with my purchase."

Lucy T. (Verified review)

Finally reassured

"Moka sometimes refuses to come in at night, even when it's cold. Since the shelter's been near the garage, at least I know he has somewhere to settle. I've already found him curled up inside it in the morning several times."

Katie L. (Verified review)

Even in the rain

"We had two days of heavy rain right after setting it up. The garden cat was inside and everything stayed nice and dry. It's exactly what I wanted for him."

Diana B. (Verified review)

A pleasant surprise

"I thought I'd be getting something fairly flimsy, but once assembled, it's sturdy and the inside is really roomy. The grey blends in nicely in the garden. Our Minette seems to like it there."

Ryan Y. (Verified review)

Worth it

"I hesitated for a long time because he's not even our cat, he just comes to eat at our place. But the first time I saw him sleeping inside it on a cold night, I didn't regret the purchase at all."

Zoe D. (Verified review)

His new spot

"Caramel still spends a lot of time outside despite his age. He mainly uses the shelter in the evening and for naps when the weather's bad. He's really understood it's his own little spot."

BEFORE, AFTER

The same cat, a different winter

Whether he's a neighbourhood cat you feed with affection, or one who shares your home but loves going out even in winter, everyone deserves a warm, dry spot when the weather turns bad outside

A reality for stray cats

A stray cat lives on average 2 to 5 years, compared to 10 to 15 years for a cat who lives in the warmth.

Caring for him doesn't mean adopting him

The neighbourhood cat now has a place of his own, warm and dry, without you having to adopt him. 

And if it's your own cat who loves going out even in winter, the shelter doesn't replace the home: it simply covers the hours he chooses to be outside.

FAQ

Do you have questions? We have answers!

Will my cat actually use it?

Yes, feedback from our customers shows it's very well used, including by cats who were wary at first. 

Every cat has his own pace; some adopt it within days, others need several weeks to get used to a new object in their environment.

Is it really enough without heating, even when it's cold?

Yes. It's not the shelter that heats up, but it stops the cat's own warmth from escaping, exactly what he needs to stay warm even in severe cold.

The insulating walls and reflective lining send it back to him, while the waterproof fabric and raised frame protect him from wind, rain and the cold ground.

It's this combination of all three that makes the difference: a shelter that only covers one leaves the cat exposed on the other two.

Which size should I choose for my cat?

The M suits a cat up to 5 kg, the L up to 10 kg.

If you think several cats might use it together, it's best to choose the L.

If in doubt, the larger size is always the safer choice: a cat retains its warmth better in a space it fills comfortably, not one that's too tight.

For more detail, check our size guide.

Is the shelter waterproof?

Yes, the outer fabric (Oxford) is stated as waterproof by the manufacturer, and is complemented by a roof that overhangs the walls to keep rain away from the entrance.

Is it difficult to assemble?

No, it's a simple assembly: the frame slots together, the house sits on top, and the roof closes with a zip.

How do I care for it, can it be washed?

The roof and floor are removable, so you can easily take them out to clean them as you like.

I already have a garage or a shed, why do I need a shelter as well?

Many cats prefer a spot that keeps a view of the outside rather than a fully enclosed space, even if it's less warm.

The shelter gives them a spot that's theirs alone, visible and easy to recognise, without taking up space in your garage or shed.

Do you offer a guarantee?

Yes, a 30-day satisfaction guarantee.

If the shelter isn't right for your cat, you have 30 days to return it to us for a full refund.

Just get in touch with our customer service.

How to choose the right shelter for your cat?

Base your choice on your cat's build.

Size M suits most cats.

If yours is a large breed, or if several cats might share the shelter, go for size L.

If in doubt, the larger size is always the safer choice.
