How do you make a house for a stray cat?
Taping Up the Opening and the Lid of the Plastic Bin. To make sure that the house was secure, we taped the lid down on the plastic bin so that it could not be accidentally removed by a kitty or other animal. That tape should also prevent any weather—ice, snow, or rain—from entering the top of the house.
Do you think stray cats need a warm home?
Stray and Outdoor Cats Need a Warm Home. In our neighborhood, we have several outdoor and stray cats who visit our house each day for love, along with food and water. Although they may have their own house and family, we still worry about them and provide them with whatever they might need.
What did Maria Cassano do about the Stray Cat?
A few years ago, Maria Cassano noticed a stray cat traveling through her dad’s Long Island backyard with a kitten in tow. She worried that without proper food the cat, whom she dubbed Mama, wouldn’t be strong enough to produce milk for her baby. Her dad was resistant to feeding neighborhood strays, but Cassano convinced him to make an exception.
Why was there a camera in the Cat House?
Mama soon had a second kitten, and Cassano’s dad decided to install a camera in the cat house to make sure they were getting home safe every night. What they didn’t anticipate were all the adorable photos they’d capture of the grateful strays.
