The neighbors outdoor cat sleeps on a blanket on our front porch, are the sides high enough on this bed to protect her from the wind?

I don't think they are high enough to protect from the wind. the bed is a very nice bed, my yorkie loves it. Carol.

No, this bed doesn't keep the cats warm without a cover on top. I have the sleeper on a patio chair that's under the patio table and the table is covered with a waterproof table cover.

It should put out enough heat. To the touch, it doesn't feel like much but once your kitty sleeps in it, it seems to generate more heat.Hope that helps. Good luck with your kitty :)

This is really good insulation but you would need to use in inside of the cat box i dont think it would do as outside cover. We have a dog house that we are going to cover with the insulation and then cover it with shingles both are very in expensive and easy to install. A cat needs to have its sleeping area up off of the ground We have a cat and she will not sleep in anything that is not up high and off of the ground.

If the cat likes to get under a covering or inside things, I would think so. You can zip the top part off so it's just a pillow. Too.

Hello Bryan Paul I would say no because it is not weather treated and may warp and not be sturdy. After a blowing rain if you do just for when,you need it not to be left out there cats like to scratch and Sun warping might happen

Our kitty house is on an open porch with a roof overhead. We live where we get rain and snow and the kitty house has held up without problem.

I am sorry for the delay in answering. I just got my feline tent out for the season today. It does have some flaps that could be staked to the ground. My cats are "indoor cats", so I only put the tent on my front porch or back deck, so they can be out with me. They've never tipped it over.

Yes, I have two cats and they both share the top flat. THEY LOVE IT!! It was well worth the money and it hasnt toppled over.

If it gets down into the 30's (Farenheit) or colder, I'd put an electric pet bed heater under this to keep the kitty warm. That's what I've done in both my garage and in a box on my front porch for the two feral kitties who have claimed my property as theirs. I also put half of a micro fleece blanket wrapped in a donut shape around this pad, so the cats have a bit of a "bowl" to snuggle down into.

Sure can. No problem. Unit exterior is not hot. My cats sleep on top of it.

I would suggest only using this in a protected area (away from heavy rain/wind) as it is rather light in weight. We have it on a covered porch and our feral cats (2-3 at a time) curl up inside it.

The kitty Kat Condo has not blown off the deck even in storms. The condo repells the wind. The cat gets in there to get protection from the wind. I have the condo setting on top a small table so I thought the wind might take it off the deck but it has not moved even moved it. I think with the rounding of the house it resists the wind. It faces into the wind on the deck.

I think so. It is quite large and sleeps two large cats of mine. You can take the cover off in 4 pieces , wash and put back on. I think it is designed well and seems to maintain its fluff.

I purchased this for my outside cat and she loves it! I taped plastic over the charcoal filter, even though it is kept on our covered porch. My only issue is that the swinging door has a tendency to fall off, which might be resolved with some plastic rip-ties. It's definitely an inexpensive option for outside pet shelter. I put a small pillow & pet pad that reflects the cat's body heat (purchased the pet pad from Amazon).

Certainly but if it is hot it will need shade and if it is raining it will need a roof. It is very sturdy. The holes are large enough to allow a smallish kitten to escape.

We use ours on an interior porch that is not heated. It seems to stay warm enough but the opening on both sides may present issues with a continuous draft? I put a polartec blanket inside that partially covers back opening. It is lighter than wooden or heavy plastic houses so wind could be a factor as far as " blowing over". I would see this working in a semi protected area ( in an open port or garage or she'd, etc) . I am pleased with the house!

Probably would not help insulate it, but a fleece blanket inside would be good and it's washable. Also, I had to screw the top to the bottom because we have high winds in my area but it was easy to do. I really like it for my cat who insists on being outdoors even in colder weather.
