Anything at all you made, pictures appreciated, but not required. I can't wait to see your ideas!
that's a great idea! I'm going to start saving cardboard tubes. My boys would love that.I made this for my cats. They loved it, but did destroy it after a few weeks! I hid cat treats inside the tubes, made from toilet paper rolls.
These are lovely! I love what you did with the cabinet, it must have taken some time to do and the little bed is adorable, complete with a little teddy bear. What a lucky kitten.
I was so worried about fire and that is why I moved to the Hound heater instead of the cheap light bulb. The light bulb was about $15 as I used a reptile 75w bulb so that it was so bright inside. Yet I was worried about the bulb catching fire or burning out and not knowing it. I did keep a remote thermometer inside so I could monitor the temp. Many days when the temp was 25 or so, with the hound heater on low it was above 50 inside. My boys were so cozy that many days they rarely came out. It was so worth the peace of mind. DH and DS built it all in one day. The supplies to build were under $50 and that includes the reflectix insulation. The hound heater was $80, but should last me for years.Absolutely genius! This is so cool! These are expensive in stores that even sell them. The fact that you made one that can keep heat above 30 degrees and NOT catch fire.... WOW. I'm a little jealous. I love this!
We also have 2 feeding stations we have built for the ferals as well as a Feral villa. They use the feeding stations daily, but hated the feral villa shelter. I only use it in the winter to put dry food in during the night. My DH loves to build! He saves us tons of money by making and repurposing so many items. I love the bed you made and cabinet too!Something pre-built like this would've cost hundreds of dollars. This made my day. If you make anything else like this, be sure to tell me
The nice thing about those window blind wands is that they have a sort of hook at the end. I'm not a former Boy Scout and I was never taught any special knots, but I just tied a knot back around the wand so it can't slip off. The worm toy is a zig zag shape so the string holds it well. And the nice thing about making your own wand toy is that you can replace or rotate items as the bait on the end...before the worm I was using one of those rubber bracelets from some charity. My kitten liked the texture of it and I think it had extra appeal because he's teething.Great idea! How did you attach it to the wand? Wouldn't the string slide off?
That is amazing. Good job.
