Cat Duplex with Veranda
I think this outdoor cat house is an absolute dream and perfect for a two cat household. Your cats can either have their own rooms or share a large room by removing the slide in partition.
The house is self-assembly and comes with seven predrilled panels. There are vinyl doors for protection from the weather and a deck and veranda for lounging in the sunshine.
Made from cedar wood which is a natural deterrent to fleas, ticks and termites. Wood is the best insulator known to man and is significantly cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.
- House Size 40″W x 20″D x 30″H
- Door Opening: 7″W x 9 ¼”
Optional Insulation: Thermal-Ply Radiant Barrier: Thermal-Ply blocks radiant energy in both summer and winter conditions. It blocks as much as 93% of radiation (summer heat gain) and 50% to 70% of winter heat loss through the ceiling and roof. The floor, ceiling and side walls are all insulated. To ensure long term duarbility from chewing and clawing, the sidewall insulation is protected by a lightweight mahogany plywood liner.
Prices from:
$571 - No Insulation
$688 – Insulated
Price includes shipping within USA

Oscar Cat of Death
Oscar the cat has the uncanny ability to detect when a patient in a nursing home for dementia is about to die.
The cat, who has lived at the Steere House Nursing and Rehabilitation in Providence, Rhode Island since he was a kitten, normally wanders from room to room. But when a patient is hours from death Oscar remains at their bedside. If he is shut out he will scratch at the door until he is allowed in.
Professor David Dosa wrote about a day in the life of Oscar in The New England Journal of Medicine claiming that Oscar is the cuddlier, feline equivalent of the Grim Reaper.
Dosa says that Oscar’s presence at the bedside of severely ill patients is viewed by doctors and nurses alike as an almost absolute indicator of impending death.
The tale of Oscar is now available in a new book by Professor Dosa which expands on this compelling story.
