Making a Winter Shelter from an Unused Camper Top

The shell should be set on a raised platform and secured with screws. The outside edge between the shell and platform should be sealed with silicone caulk. The wood platform should be painted orsealed with wood sealer.

After the shell and platform are set in place, you should add 6-8 inches of straw to the interior. Strawis an excellent insulation material, the cats will burrow right in when cold weather arrives. Two windows should be left open 5 inches. If you leave only one window open, one cat can control the entry/exit point. Place a screw in the window tract so the windows can’t be forced further open.

Open windows should have a wind block provided, and never faced North.

This shelter will house 15-20 cats.

During periods of snow, keep the pathway to the windows cleared.
