    Thank you for this video! We thought we were crazy! We have "misting" that is coming from the frame. The frameless door is beautiful. I did not want to remodel the master bathroom but my husband did. The remodel nearly cost us our marriage. So, he is in charge of drying off the shower each and every time. Since he sqeeguees the quartz he wipes up every surface now as well.

      Hi, Bruce. You will need a small piece of your vinyl siding. I had a piece left from the original installation. Take the piece of vinyl to your local Home Depot's paint department.

      Hi, C Mc. That's a great question. Unfortunately, I have not seen a cat use any of the four shelters we have. I have three shelters with one door and one with two doors. Two ferals are hanging around and we feed them daily. Neither of them show any interest in any of the shelters. Only possums are interested in them. They love them. I have a larger shelter I made a few years ago and I modified one of the 3 single-door shelters in this video into a two-door shelter. Unfortunately, that didn't entice them to try the shelter. At least they are there if they ever want to use them.

    This is so thoughtful and so nicely made. I also loved seeing one of your rescued feral cats who now lives inside. Thanks for this great video tutorial and idea.

    Is there an alternative to straw? I'm deadly allergic.

      Hi, LeahStormGaming. Straw is an excellent bedding choice for feral shelters because it has a nice insulating factor, won't mold as easily as hey, and tends to stay nice and dry. Since you are allergic you may want to have a family member or friend pack the shelter with straw so you aren't exposed to it. If that isn't an option some have suggested using shredded paper or cardboard as bedding. The downside is it is much more likely to get wet and freeze than straw and if that happens the feral cat will stop using the shelter. Good luck and thanks for helping these sweet critters.

    I just got a mrdical grade styrofoam container. Cut a 7in hole in it and was done. The styrofoam is about 4in thick they use it to ship medication that has to stay refrigerated. I paid $8. I put some strain and a mat that the cat liked laying on b4 the house was available

    Wouldn't opossums or raccoons try to get into this?

    • @Fixitforgetit

      Good call, Josh. Possums do sleep in some of the shelters. It is hard to control who falls in love with them and they certainly seem to like them.

    You don’t need a drill to make a hole in plastic ~ use a hot glue gun which will not only make the hole, but will reinforce it without risking cracking.
