I started noticing couple stray cats on our camera always hanging out outside. I started leaving them food outside sometimes, and one day when it was raining I saw them on camera shaking and hiding under the trees, it was so sad to watch, I made them a shelter  to hide out using a lot of tape and cardboard. When I saw this product I was so happy, those two cats love this, and I like how the pad cover is washable. Super happy with the product!
