Heated Cat House for Outside - Winter Outdoor Cat House Weatherproof Wooden, Warm Cat Houses for Outdoor Cats, Insulated Cat House with Heating Pad, Stray Feral Cat Shelter with Escape Door Review

Our scorecard

The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other dog and cat food, health, gear and grooming we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.

Overview

This is a wooden outdoor cat house built for winter, made from pine and finished to be weatherproof and insulated. At 34.4 by 26.1 by 18.5 inches, there's real room inside for a cat to stretch out, and a heating pad is included to add warmth on the coldest nights.

A second escape door gives a cat another way in and out, useful if a predator or another animal blocks the main entrance, which matters for shelters serving stray or feral colonies. Assembly is required before it can be placed outside.

At about 30 lbs, it's meant to be set down and left in place rather than moved around often, and it's backed by a 2-year warranty, longer than most houses in this category.
