- Is it actually insulated?
- Yes. The inner cabin has insulation in the walls, which slows heat loss compared with an uninsulated wooden house. It is not heated, so it works best with bedding and a covered spot.
- How many cats fit inside?
- The cabin is sized for one cat. Two cats would be cramped, and larger breeds may find the doorway and interior tight.
- Does it need assembly?
- Yes, it ships flat and needs assembly. Owners report it takes some time, so set aside an afternoon and have a screwdriver ready.
- Can it stay outside in rain and snow?
- It can, but the wood benefits from resealing and a sheltered position. In constant rain, place it under an overhang or cover to prevent warping.
- Is it better than a plastic cat house?
- It insulates better and looks nicer, but plastic is lighter and needs no weatherproofing. For cold climates, the insulated wood is the stronger choice.
- What should I put inside?
- Add a washable bed or straw for warmth. Straw insulates well and stays drier than blankets in an outdoor shelter.
