The latest improvement to the kitten's favorite shelter

[Siwsan]

Extra straw and a new warming pad (a gift from their auntie) are a big hit with the kittens.

2. Old Tiger is putting on his winter weight, he polished off three cans of fancy feast last night

Now I’m wondering if there is a battery powered heater for outdoor pet houses. Do you know of any such thing?

[Siwsan]

4. I've never seen one

I saw a patio heater but I think it ran on kerosene.

5. Neither have I. Sometimes I just put handwarmers in there when it gets really cold.

8. I was just looking at solar powered dog house heaters, if that would help

any.

10. That sounds good I'll try looking that up

I laughed to myself once thinking of putting little solar panels on the slanted roof.

11. Don"t laugh. They have them!

13. There are warmers that you heat in microwave and they last all night.

This company makes electric pads for poultry, outdoor dogs, cats, bunnies, etc. I have about 5 of them that I use for cats. Never tried these microwave ones.

6. Get a used dog house.

Get a used dog house. People give them away on Craig's List and in newspaper advertising. Generally free for pick-up. If not, buy one used. Clean it up. Paint the exterior; carpet the interior. Wind proof it. Then install an electric dog house heater of some kind. They sell them at Amazon and Home Depot and Lowe's and Tractor Supply and at other hardware stores. You may even find a "used" dog house which already has one installed in it.

7. Great suggestion!

I've been browsing dog houses. My brother is an avid yard sales guy so he's on the look out for one.

12. They heat up a small enclosure quite a bit

So be careful not to overheat the area or they might choose to chance the cold.
