How can I stop other animals from using my cat’s house?
The Microchip Cat House XL is specifically designed to allow access only to your cat. The microchip flap prevents unwanted visitors like foxes, hedgehogs, or other neighborhood cats from taking over the space.

Can your cat houses be placed anywhere outdoors?

Yes, our cat houses are designed for outdoor use, but for optimal protection, we recommend placing them in a sheltered area, such as against a wall, under a porch, or in a garden corner.
