Who doesn't love cats? Everyone loves cats! And many owners try to provide the best living conditions for their pets. Expensive bowls, good dry food, regular medical care. Of course, you still need a good sleeping place. They are expensive, but this is not a problem - you can do it yourself. This will be discussed in the article.
Which house to choose for a cat: types of houses, tips for arrangement
If you become the owner of a cat, sooner or later you will have to think about arranging a cat’s home. A cat needs a home, just like a person needs personal space. In its house, the cat will be able to rest peacefully; no one will touch it here.
If the cat does not have its own house, it will find a place for itself on its own. An animal may choose your closet with clothes as a home or find a place for itself on the sofa or table. If you don’t want this state of affairs, then it’s time to arrange a cozy house for your pet.
You can buy a ready-made cat house. Or you can make it with your own hands, putting your love and care into it. There are many advantages to a house made by yourself:
- They are easy to make;
- You can make a house of any size and configuration;
- For production, improvised materials that can be found in your home are suitable;
- Materials can be purchased, their cost will be significantly lower than that of a finished house;
- If you like to make things, this activity will allow you to spend your leisure time in an interesting way;
- Only the owner knows about the desires and habits of his pet, so he can easily make the house as comfortable as possible for the pet.
Important: Before you find a place for a house in your house or apartment, watch your cat. Surely there is a place in the apartment where she prefers to be most often. This is where you should place the house.
Also, if the cat is not litter box trained, it should be trained before it moves into its new home. Otherwise, the house will have to be washed regularly.
A cat house must meet the following criteria:
- Space . The dimensions of the cat's home must correspond to the size of the pet. In a small apartment it can be difficult to find a place for a large house, but a cat will not be comfortable in a house that is too cramped.
- Materials . To create a house, choose natural, breathable materials that can be easily cleaned if necessary.
- Place for games . It’s a good idea to make sure your cat has a place to sharpen its claws or play with a ball. The play complexes look original, and pets really like them.
- It is advisable that the cat house have a back door . Although this animal has long been a domestic animal, its instincts for survival and procreation come first. Having a back door will provide the animal with peace of mind and safety.
- The cats' housing should be slightly elevated. This will provide the cat with an overview of the territory , which is very important for the male. The cat’s home, on the contrary, should be lower. Such a house will satisfy the instinct of preserving the cat's offspring.
There are different types of cat houses. The choice of a certain type of house largely depends on the habits of the cat. Let's look at what types of houses there are for cats.
Beds
Looks like a miniature bed or sofa. This house does not have a roof. A cat will not be able to fully retire in such a house, but many pets get used to this type of house. The bed can be easily moved from one place to another, and you can take it with you on a trip. This is the advantage of this type of house.

Hammock
It is a mini version of a hammock for people. A hammock for cats can be placed without hesitation without compromising the area of the apartment. For example, under the seat of a chair by tying the edges of a hammock to the legs of the chair. Making a hammock with your own hands is as easy as shelling pears. It is enough to take a fairly thick piece of fabric, sew strings to its edges, and the hammock is ready.

Booths
Such a house with a roof is closed and allows the pet to be in complete privacy and tranquility at any time of the day. If the area of your apartment or house is large, the booth can become an interior decoration. Some people place similar houses in the courtyard of a private house.

Wigwam
A house with a pointed roof. Houses of this type are suitable for Siamese, Abyssinian or Bengal cats. Cats of these breeds love to stand on their tiptoes.

Complexes for games
Such a cozy corner is a real joy for an active pet. Such complexes are especially necessary if there are several cats in the house. Complexes can consist of various devices for cats, for example, stairs, beds, scratching posts, etc. The sizes of the complexes are also very different: from miniature to real labyrinths. If you have somewhere to place such a complex, your pet will have an extremely fun time.

House built into furniture
An excellent solution for those who want to save space in their home or apartment. When arranging a cat's house with furniture, you should take into account the character and size of the pet. A cat that is too large and energetic can topple the structure.

Wood
Building a wooden cat house with your own hands requires skills in working with wood and other tools. It can be used at home or installed outdoors like regular dog houses. Of course, this needs to be done only in the warm season.
Plywood house
First, you should design the entire structure and make blanks from boards, having previously sanded them.
Some craftsmen make similar houses using wooden slats, which allows them to create quite interesting and somewhat complicated structures. So, you can find an outdoor house for a cat with a staircase, a veranda, a carved roof and other attributes resembling an old Russian hut.

The inside of the house is covered with a water-repellent material, and then the outside is treated with a composition that is protective against rot and mold. Here you can treat the entire house with drying oil, varnish, or simply paint it, creating an unsurpassed design.
After all the chemical solutions have evaporated, you can put a pillow on the cat and invite him to a housewarming party.

How to make a house for a cat with your own hands from cardboard and boxes: step-by-step description, photo
Cardboard packaging is the cheapest material for a cat house. A house like this can be made very quickly. The advantage of housing made from cardboard packaging is that the material is inexpensive. Finding a box of the required dimensions is not a problem. It is enough to cut holes in it for entry and exit, put a soft mattress, and the house is considered ready. The cardboard house is lightweight. If necessary, you can move it to another location. These factors can be attributed to the positive aspects of a house made of this material.
The disadvantages of the house include its fragility. During active pet play, cardboard is easily damaged. A house like this cannot be washed or cleaned. Based on this, you will have to frequently update the cat’s home.
Simple box house for a cat
Many people don’t like the way a cardboard house looks. The appearance of ordinary cardboard packaging really does not have any aesthetics. But it can be beautifully decorated. Colored paper, fabric, buttons, bows and other decorative elements are suitable for this. The cardboard box can be covered with fabric; the fabric can be secured with glue or a stapler. Buttons and other decorative elements can be sewn on or glued on. The inside of the box can be painted and lined with soft fabric to keep the cat warm and comfortable. The end result is a pretty little house.
Cardboard house
You can make a house from corrugated cardboard. It is not difficult. For production you need the following materials:
- Corrugated cardboard
- Stationery knife
- Compass
- Glue
Manufacturing process:
- Draw a circle on a sheet of cardboard, and there are many more circles of smaller diameter in it.
- Then you need to cut out these circles using a stationery knife.
- Glue the rings together.
- Finally, glue the bottom of the house.
- Once the glue has dried, cut a hole for the entrance.
The good thing about this type of house is that, thanks to its textured surface, your pet can sharpen its claws. Typically, cats choose furniture for such purposes. But with such a house you won’t have to spoil the furniture.

Instructions for making a house for two cats
The family has two cats. The older cat is the aggressor and the younger one is more active. Therefore, the design was designed so that the youngest could hide on the highest platform, but the elder, due to his weight, could not get there. They decided to place the house high, since both cats prefer heights. They made it larger in size so that both individuals could be there at the same time.
Source material and results of labor
For this design, thick furniture plywood (12 mm) measuring 75*50 cm, timber posts 50*70 (4.2 m), jute-based carpet - 1*2.5 meters, 20 meters of rope were purchased. Fasteners - corners. For the house - 15 * 20 mm, for attaching platforms - 40 * 45 mm, 55 * 20 and 35 * 40 - for insurance, and a couple of large ones - for attaching to the wall.
We prepare the platforms and attach them to the poles
There are three pillars in the chosen design: one is 220 cm, the second is 120 cm and the third is 80 cm. They will be attached to a base made of plywood sheet. The pillars should be placed on the base so that the longest one is closest to the wall. To avoid confusion, when marking on a sheet of paper, using a ruler and pencil, we first drew a stencil on paper, on which the location of the pillars relative to each other was marked. The markings for installing the pillars were transferred from the finished layout. They were fastened with long nails through the base (4 pieces each), drilling holes of slightly smaller diameter in the plywood. Then they were secured on the outside with corners 55*20 for the large post and 35*40 for the smaller ones.
Markup is the most important thing
Using the same template, the location of the pillars was marked on the platforms, then holes were cut out for them according to the markings. To do this, we took a 12 mm feather drill and drilled holes in the corners marked for installing squares into which the jigsaw blade fits perfectly. From experience: it is better to make the slots for the posts a millimeter or two larger. The platforms are still held in place by the corners, and if the slot is made too small, it will take a long time to refine it with a file or sandpaper.
We fasten the prepared platforms
Before installing the platform, we “try it on”, adjusting the slots if necessary. Having placed the platform horizontally (using a building level) at the required level, mark with a pencil where the platform stands. Using this marking, we then install the corners, so that we make clear marks on all four sides. When all the platforms are installed normally, we cover them with carpet.
Assembling the house body
Two pieces of plywood 75*50 cm were cut into 4 rectangles. They made the roof, floor and two side walls. When making one of the shelves, there was a piece of plywood left with a semicircular hole in the side. It was decided to make it an “entrance”, and the back wall was cut out from one of the pieces. All that remains is to assemble the house, which is not difficult at all. Small metal corners were used, which were fastened with short self-tapping screws.
Preparing a “nest” for a cat
Before covering the house with a roof, it was upholstered from the inside, thus covering the fasteners and increasing comfort. Working inside the case is not so convenient, but you can manage. The roof was covered on both sides, after which it was secured using the same corners, but placed on the outside. Not very pretty, but not deadly. The finished house was secured in its designated place. The corners came to the rescue again, but larger ones - 35*40 mm.
We wrap the pillars
The last stage is to wrap the poles, making a scratching post. The easiest way to secure a rope to a pole is with staples. A few staples and you're done. Next, tightly pressing one turn to the other, we wrap the pillars in a spiral. We reach the obstacle, secure the rope with brackets again and continue on the next section.
As it turns out, the rope needs to be hammered...
From experience, I must say that no matter how hard we tried, the turns of the rope did not fit one to the other very tightly; over time, they “got soft” and began to “move” up/down a little. After working through the mistakes, we found a way: after laying several turns, we knock them out with a hammer. Everything is simple, but if I had known in advance... That's all, we made a house for the cat with our own hands. It took about 6 hours.
A similar design is discussed in the video below.
How to make a house for a cat with your own hands from old clothes: step-by-step description, master class
Unnecessary clothes, namely a T-shirt or sweater, can get a chance for a second life. You can quickly make a tent house for your cat from these clothes.
To make such a house you will need:
- Old T-shirt
- Aluminum wire
- Large sheet of thick cardboard or plywood
- Glue
- Scotch
- Awl
- Threads, needle
Step-by-step production:
- Take a sheet of cardboard measuring 40*40 cm. To make the cardboard more durable, cover it with tape. Instead of cardboard, you can take a sheet of plywood. This will be the basis for the future house. Use an awl to make holes in all corners of the base.
- Then take two pieces of aluminum wire of the same length. Make two identical arcs and connect them crosswise with tape.
- Then thread the edges of the wire through the holes in the base. Fold the edges and secure them very securely with tape. The pet should not get hurt on the edges of the wire.
- Now examine the frame of the cat house. It should be symmetrical. If the house is uneven, you can fix it. To do this, one of the uneven edges of the wire should be lowered lower or raised higher and fixed. But it’s better to immediately do everything evenly and symmetrically.
- Then you should put a T-shirt on the frame. The hole for the head should be placed in the center, and preferably closer to the bottom edge. This way it will be convenient for the cat to climb into the house.
- The sleeves of the T-shirt and free edges should be carefully folded down and sewn with a thread and a needle.
- Place a soft cloth inside that fits the size of the house.
Materials needed to make the house Step 1: making the frame Step 2: insert the wire into the base of the house
Step 3: Fix the frame well
Step 4: Place the T-shirt on the finished frame
Step 5: hide the edges of the T-shirt Photo of the finished house made from a T-shirt and a happy pet
Important: Large size T-shirts are suitable for making a house; children's T-shirts are definitely not suitable. The item must be ironed, without stains, without holes, so that the pet’s house looks beautiful and neat.
- Another important point: the T-shirt must be made of cotton. Synthetic clothing can accumulate static charges. It is unlikely that your pet will like such a house.
- Using the same principle, you can make a house out of a sweater. But it is better to shorten the sleeves so that they do not interfere when tucking them down. Such a house will become a warm refuge for your pet.
- Instead of cardboard or plywood, you can use a small soft pillow. The wire can be made not arched, but pointed upward. Then you will get a wigwam house.
- If you don’t know where to get the wire of the required length, wire hangers, which many people have at home, will come to the rescue. The hangers can be straightened using pliers, and you will get the necessary material for needlework.
- You can make a soft, cozy cat house from an old sweater. You will also need a small soft pillow that can fit inside the sweater, foam rubber.
How to make a cat house from a sweater
First, you need to sew the neck of the sweater. Then sew the sweater in a circle and sew the sleeves to the body.
Step 1: Sew the edges of the neckline and sew the sleeves to the body
The sleeves should be stuffed with foam rubber and sewn together.
Step 2: Sew the Sleeves
Then a pillow is placed inside the sweater and the edge is sewn together.
Step 4: Place the pillow inside and sew the edges of the product
The last step is to sew the sleeves together and hide the seam. To do this, the junction of the sleeves is sheathed with some kind of fabric. The soft cat bed is ready.
Step 5: Hide the Seams

How to make a hammock?
A homemade hammock bed is convenient because it does not interfere with air circulation from below, and the presence of a canopy, depending on the model, allows for shade. Hammocks for pets can be very diverse in the way they are attached. For example, they can be ordinary, installed on the floor, in addition, they can be installed on a radiator or attached to window glass. In the latter case, the fasteners are large suction cups that firmly hold the compact bed.
Such modifications can be made from thick wire or pipe. It is used to create a frame with hooks through which it will be attached, for example, to a radiator. The size of the frame must be sufficient to accommodate the animal. After the frame is bent, we begin sewing the textile cover, taking measurements on the finished frame. For ease of washing or cleaning, the cover can be sewn with a Velcro fastener. Next, all that remains is to put the cover on the frame and secure the bed with hooks to the battery.
If there is enough space between the battery and the wall, you can make a wooden frame with supports hiding behind the battery. Otherwise, all that remains is to simply sew a cover from thick material or pull an old sweater over the frame, tucking its sleeves inside the resulting hammock. If you have a chair with high legs at home, it will be perfect as a ready-made frame for a future structure. You will need to sew a fabric to it and secure its ends to the crossbars.
An original solution could be a bed suspended from the ceiling. Moreover, it can be either single-tiered or consisting of two or even three floors. A characteristic feature of such products is the narrowing of the size upwards. To make such beds, textiles, foam rubber, and synthetic winterizer are used. The product can be attached to a ceiling hook using wide ribbons made of thick textile. It’s difficult to call such beds comfortable, but cats are not afraid of difficulties: during the day they manage to lie down wherever they can.

Cats are notorious pranksters. They love to play. They also need a scratching post to sharpen their claws. You can make an effort and build a whole complex for your pet.
Important : If you decide to make a house of this type, it is better to make it from wood or plywood. Short-lived material such as cardboard is not at all suitable for such a large house. After all, cardboard houses wear out quickly, and you will be sorry for the spoiled results of your work.

For a kitten
A house for a kitten is just as necessary as for an adult cat. Here it is better to build a real play complex , if possible supplementing it with soft attributes - a place to relax and spend the night.
You can also build a regular sleeve house , which is attached to the wall at a small height from the floor so that the kitten can climb into it on its own.
Sleeve house for a kitten
It is better not to use large-sized and labor-intensive wooden structures.
Firstly, a house for a kitten should not be “for growth” . Otherwise, the little cub will not show interest in it, because it will be uncomfortable for him.
Secondly, in just a few months you will have to build a new house, which requires a lot of effort and time. Here it is better to give preference to weaving their newspaper tubes or cardboard blanks.
The first home for kittens is usually a large box in which they are born and kept for the first month of life.
A simple house for a kitten out of a box
The instructions for creating a house for a kitten contain the following steps:
- take a cardboard box , for example, from a vacuum cleaner or microwave, the main thing is that it is high enough so that the kittens do not jump out of it;
- cover the bottom with water-repellent material , for example, oilcloth and fabric, or ordinary baby absorbent diapers, since the baby has yet to learn how to walk in the tray;
- if his mother also lives with the kitten, then an entrance is cut into the house for her , at such a height that the baby cannot jump to it;
- make a roof - from fabric or cardboard (just secure it with stationery clips).
Another option for the first shelter can be a shoebox - a small pet will love to sleep and hide in it. It will serve until the baby grows up. The bottom is covered with a soft cloth, the lid does not close.
The next resting place could be a soft bed or pillow .
Soft bed for a kitten
The main difference between a children's house and an adult one is its small size and short service life , firstly, because the animal is growing, and secondly, kittens do not yet know how to go to the toilet in a litter tray, which leads to the unusability of the same cardboard.

Do not forget to take care of the absence of drafts, which are so dangerous for the baby, especially in the cold season. In our separate article, we will tell you how to adjust plastic windows for the winter.
What you need for a bed
For a cozy bed for your pet, old things that are always found in every home are suitable. These include:
You can also make dog beds from these things with your own hands. The fabric for the bed must be durable, because the animal scratches its claws on it and bites.
There are a large number of photos and videos on the Internet that show and tell you how to make such a “cat bed” with your own hands. But we need to take into account some nuances:
- A cat bed should be practical and easy to wash and clean. Try to wash your pet’s bed at least once every 7 days to prevent fur and dust from accumulating in it;
- A lounger should always be convenient and comfortable. The place for the cat's home should be cozy, dry and warm. If your animal loves everything soft, then use a pillow as a base. But if your pet likes to sleep on a hard surface, the bottom of the bed should not be airy and soft;
- For a “cozy nest” you can purchase fabric similar to the color of your wallpaper and furniture; it will look attractive and stylish. In this way you will maintain the beautiful design of your interior.
