…or cat house.

Like many of you, we are in the middle of a deep freeze. Just as the temps started to drop, Louis left his little cubby and dissapeared. He hasn’t been back to the porch for food or a nap. A neighbour informed us that he’s likely under the house of another neighbour up the street. He feeds the strays an apparently under his house is where quite a few take shelter. It’s probably how Louis has survived all his previous winters.

But still, Dave was upset. He was convinced Louis left because his house wasn’t warm enough. Dave didn’t like that the wind could still blow in the front.

So last weekend, when he made me stop at the hardware store it was to get materials to make Louis a better house.

While I was making Chocolate Chip Cookies, he was sawing and screwing. In the end, it’s the same idea as the first one with insulation and straw..

But it’s double the size, with two rooms (like Furby’s fancy one) so Louis can get tucked away from the wind better. The top also comes off so we can periodically clean out the old straw.
