Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions? We’ve got answers!

Will an outdoor cat house keep my cat warm through winter?

Yes. The houses are insulated to trap your cat's own body heat, and most sit raised off the ground so cold and damp can't seep up from below. Add a generous layer of straw — it insulates far better than blankets, which hold moisture — and even on a frosty night your cat has a snug, draught-protected place to curl up. For the coldest spots, a Sleepy Paws self-heating pad adds extra warmth with no running costs.

Are they really "self-heating"? Do they need electricity?

No electricity, and no running costs. "Self-heating" means the insulation reflects and retains the warmth your cat gives off, so the inside stays noticeably warmer than the air outside. Nothing plugs in, nothing gets hot to the touch, and there's no fire risk to worry about.

Are the cat houses waterproof in British rain?

They're built for British weather — weather-treated timber, a sloped roof and sealed joints shed the rain, and the raised base keeps the floor off wet ground. For exposed gardens, our Outdoor Cat House Rain Covers slip over the top for extra protection. Re-treating the timber once or twice a year keeps it weatherproof for years.

Which cat house should I choose?

It depends on the cat. The Mayfair range is our cosiest pet-cat option — self-heating insulation, a one-way privacy window so your cat can see out without being seen, and a microchip-flap version that keeps other cats out. The Whitstable, Verdun and Galloway shelters are simpler thermal-curtain designs that strays and feral cats take to easily, while the Marlow gives roomier "hotel" space. Not sure? Drop us a message about your cat and your garden and we'll point you to the right one.

Is it suitable for a stray or feral cat?

Very much so — it's one of the most common reasons people buy. A thermal-curtain shelter like the Whitstable, Verdun or Galloway gives a nervous cat a quiet, enclosed retreat with no flap to figure out. Place it in a sheltered, low-traffic spot with the doorway away from the wind, line it with straw, and give the cat time — a wary stray may take a week or two before it trusts and settles.

What if my cat won't use it at first?

Most cats settle within a few days, but a cautious one can take longer. Put it somewhere quiet, and make it smell familiar with a worn jumper or their usual bedding. A few treats or a little catnip inside helps, and if there's a flap, prop or remove it at first so the entrance feels open. Once they've found how snug it is, most won't want to leave.

What bedding should I use?

Straw, not blankets. Straw traps warm air, repels damp and lets a cat burrow in, whereas towels and blankets soak up moisture and can freeze in cold weather. Top it up through winter and refresh it if it gets damp or flattened.

Where should I put it?

A sheltered, quiet corner — against a wall or fence is ideal — with the doorway facing away from the prevailing wind and rain. Keep it on firm, level ground so the raised base does its job, and somewhere your cat or a nervous stray feels safe to come and go.

Is it easy to clean and maintain?

Yes. The roof lifts or hinges for easy access, so cleaning is a quick wipe-down and a change of bedding. To keep the timber weatherproof, give it a fresh coat of pet-safe wood treatment once or twice a year — that's all the upkeep an outdoor cat house needs.

What about delivery, returns and guarantee?

Our cat houses are handmade in Britain and delivered free to the UK mainland. If it isn't right you have our 90-day no-quibble returns, and every house is covered by a 2-year guarantee on parts — so you can buy with complete peace of mind before the cold weather arrives.

Wonderful product & great company

It was such a great experience!

I was concerned that it would not be possible for me, an 82yr old lady,no good at DIY. to put it together - but it just needed a Philips screwdriver and it was easy!

They were so helpful with advice and instruction and wow - British made - wonderful - superb bird feeder and cheap!

Both the hutch and run are fantastic

We purchased the 6ft Chartwell Double Rabbit Hutch along with the 6ft Heavy Duty Rabbit Run with Burrow Portal and Tunnel for our two rabbits.

Both the hutch and run are fantastic – excellent quality, very spacious for our bunnies, and easy to clean.

Thanks again, James!

Best hutches around

Best hutches and cat hideouts around I was led to believe when buying flat pack cages that they would all break in a month or so which is normally been the case.

But since using home and roost with them being A British made company everything Is a lot better quality all the panels are solid they are easy to put together but we definitely ordering more from you in the future❤️

Quality product, quality customer service!

We are extremely impressed with the service and products from Home & Roost. We were in urgent need of our new hutch, so upon speaking with customer service.

They arranged to send our hutch on an order separate to the rest of our ordered items, at no extra charge!.

A quality product, with quality customer service.

High quality item with high quality service

Initial issue with delivery date, but this was sorted quickly and professionally. The catio is well made and survived all the storms we’ve had in the recent months - it never moved.

The quality is much higher than others I’ve seen, I would definitely recommend purchasing from them.
Excellent product and excellent service.

All Round Great Company

I ordered the wrong hutch (I wanted a double but ordered the 2 tier) and also without realising I ordered the wrong size vinyl flooring.

The warehouse staff anticipated I had made a mistake with the flooring size and sent the one I needed.

The after sales service was excellent with helping me get the hutch I wanted

Couldn’t fail this company

Their website, delivery, instructions everything was beyond perfect. Note, wood is very strong so you will need a small drill. Can do by screwdriver though not recommended.

Hutch is beautiful and especially the design. Definitely using this company over pets at home from now on, wish I knew of you guys earlier!

Great product and fantastic customer service

Brilliant to find a Made in Britain company. I can be pretty sure that the making processes will do least harm to the environment, help protect our wildlife and countryside, and support local UK businesses.

Something made in China probably fails to meet any ethical standards that we consider vital . Well done Home and Roost. I'll be back!

Solid well-made hutch

The order process was straightforward - initially, the hutch was shown as back-ordered, but it was fulfilled and dispatched earlier than the website said.

Regular updates for the delivery - so I was able to reschedule to a convenient date.

Don't look anywhere else you'll get everything you need here

Every internet interaction we've had with Home and Roost has been marvellous.

The website is clear, and efficient, for which we are really grateful to them. The customer service has been excellent.

A great company!

Service and professionalism

Great product and keenly priced, swift dispatch, but let down by the courier, who managed to damage a key component.

A quick email exchange of some photos and Alan and his team had a replacement on its way the same day!!

I cannot fault the service and professionalism of Home & Roost.

Unfortunately, the product arrived damaged, but customer service was excellent and better than expected!

They replaced and picked up the damaged one the next day!

The product is fantastic and of exceptional quality. Thankyou

The best hutch company!

This is the best company I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with.

We have had multiple hutches from them, and they are really efficient and quick with dispatch.

We have also been given so much help and support from James he is always really friendly and more than happy to help.

I would highly recommend this company!!

Great quality! Great customer service!

Having studied the best hutches on the market we decided to purchase the 6ft Chartwell hutch. Very well made, quality materials, lots of space for both of them and our bunnies seem very settled and safe…

All the products we have purchased are good quality and built to last.. These are built to be good for years to come!

Five stars!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
