Powertune gets forgotten when an animal needs help.

When we bought this house we didn’t realise that we had not bought the garden! That belongs to a little black cat called Halley.? We were all concerned when Halley stayed in the garden even getting soaked by heavy rain.? She is a very nervous cat.? Runs away when you put food down. As soon as the back door shuts she is back like greased lightning. (We only give her snack-sized portions as she has a home to go to).

Asking around we found out more.? The family she lives with have two children and Halley is a loner.? So much so that getting soaked to the skin is? preferable to going home!

I couldn’t bare to see an animal like this and could not afford a pet house.? We have a branch of ‘In Store’ ( Pricecutter type shop) near us so I visited looking for something that would do the job.? Ah ha!? a stubby kitchen bin shaped like a pet carrier.? Price £5, worth it for my peace of mind.

Instructions- Adults only please.

Cut the swing-lid in half across the middle.

Replace the larger half of the lid on the lugs the lid should swing on.

Use duck(duct) tape to secure the lid in place.? This will be at an angle from the top which will deflect rain. Hey Presto, one cat shelter.

To finish,? I put a piece of artificial grass in the shelter (this is her favourite outdoor bedding)

Halley must be the first cat in history to use a house that has been put there for it.? She seems to like it so much that she was in there at 0600 this morning.? Sometime I’ll take a photo and show you this masterpiece, that’s if it ever stops raining!? I suppose Iwill be the one to get wet giving the cat breakfast in bed.
