Precautions
Consult your veterinarian before use with young puppies/kittens, convalescent pets, during surgery/surgery recovery, or any animal that cannot voluntarily remove themselves from the heated pad. K&H recommends using only the Deluxe Lectro-Kennel Heated Pad for these animals as this pad has an adjustable thermostat. Do not place pad in confined area where the pet does not have the ability to remove themselves from the pad. Always allow your pet enough space to be able choose if they want to rest on the pad or off the pad.

Wash the faux fleece cover on the gentle cycle with cold water, then line dry.
The heated pad can be cleaned using a damp towel or sponge and mild dish washing detergent. DO NOT wash in a washing machine.
The shell is hand washable. Please DO NOT try to wash it in a washing machine. To hand wash, use a mild detergent, rinse thoroughly, and air dry. Please make sure to rinse extremely well as detergent can get trapped in the nylon fabric.

Which bed is included with the Mod Thermo-Kitty Shelter?
This product includes the 9" x 12" Small Animal Heated Pad.
What are the walls made of?
The walls are made of 600 denier nylon with a vinyl backing that makes them waterproof and capable of withstanding snow.
How thick are the walls on this product?
The walls are 3/8" thick.
How does the door flap attach?
The door flap adheres to the inside of the shelter with hook & loop material. Cats can push their way through the door flap easily since it's not heavy.
What size is the door opening?
The door opening has a 7 inch diameter.
How do I line up the 2 sides of the zipper?
Here is a snapshot photo showing how to line up the 2 sides of the zipper. Once you have started the zipper, please continue following the directions.
Can I put your regular outdoor heating pad in this shelter instead of the one that comes with it? I'm concerned that the one that only heats half of the pad won't be warm enough in below zero weather.
All of our heating pads warm to 102°F when in use, regardless of size. A larger heating pad will not make the shelter warmer because the heat is not radiant. The animal stays warm by making direct contact with the heat source.This product is designed for the included pad and we would not recommend trying to fit one of our larger pads inside. If you’d like a house with a heating pad that covers the entire floor, please look at our Outdoor Kitty House and Multi-Kitty A-Frame.
How many door openings are there, 1 or 2?
This product has a front door but does not have a rear door. If you’d prefer a shelter with 2 doors, please look at our Outdoor Kitty House and Multi-Kitty A-Frame.

Great for outdoor cats
By DMJordan on Nov 3, 2021
This is our second heated hut. The first one lasted over 5 years and was frequently used by our outdoor cat. I bought a cat house with window openings for the hot Texas summers but she refused to use it. I now keep her hut outside year round.

Nice house!
By Babs on Oct 27, 2021
Our feral cat hasn’t used it yet but my husband built a wooden cover for it to keep the snowout off of it and I bet he’ll be in there in no time. A good size for one cat. I hope he gets used to pushing through the plastic portal, though!

Thermo Shelter
By Bonnie on Nov 17, 2021
I don't have an outlet under my deck, we will have to have one installed to protect this from the rain. It was easy to zip together. The feral cat doesn't use it yet, afraid to go inside?

heating mat only half
By toto on Nov 5, 2021
We missed the fact the mat is only half heated and heats up to 104 degrees F. So we have had to order another mat (extreme weather mat) to put inside) and the thermostat to adjust the heat.

Great for feral and stray cats
By Erica on Nov 12, 2021
This house is great. I have spent so much money in the past for “waterproof” cat houses and I have finally found one. I will making another purchase very soon.

Great Product
By RSC169 on Oct 2, 2021
I purchased two of these for my outside cats so they would have a warm place to sleep whenever it gets cold. They are made well and are reasonably priced, and they should provide adequate shelter whenever they need it. The only issue that I had was when I was trying to put them together because the instructions were not very easy to follow, but once I figured it out they came together nicely. I would definitely recommend them for anyone who has cats. They would work well for either inside or outside cats.

Sturdy construction
By Critterlover on Aug 30, 2021
The thermo-kitty shelter is easy to assemble -- just zip it together -- and the canvas material is sturdy and heavy enough to stay in place. I like the small heating pad that fits inside. When the cat lies on it, the heater warms up. I'm very happy with this product and hope that the feral cat that lives in our yard will use it to shelter from the rain and cold.

Thermo-Kitty Shelter
By Aimee on Nov 12, 2021
This appears to be well made and the heating element works. I hope it will give refuge to one of the homeless cats in the community.

As soon as I find out how to put this thing together, I'll let you know how it works :) I'm a bit challenged with the simplest of things...so this is taking a bit of time. Check back with me!
