It's #WinterShelterWednesday! 🌬️❄️🏠🌡️🐱 What is ideal size for winter cat shelter door? Small enough to minimize heat loss, big enough for largest colony cat to comfortably come and go. Thor says 5½" round or 5x5" square hole is ju-ust right. #feralcats #communitycats #tnr #catsofbluesky #bideawee

It's #WinterShelterWednesday! 🌬️❄️🏠🌡️🐱 In most cases, cat shelters should have ONLY 1 DOOR! 2nd door creates drafts & lets in more cold air & moisture. Predators can't enter 5"x5" door & #communitycats #feralcats are far safer staying inside shelter than trying to flee. #tnr #catsofbluesky #bideawee

It's #WinterShelterWednesday! 🌬️❄️🏠🌡️🐱 How much straw to buy for cat shelters? 1 cubic foot of interior space needs ~1 pound of straw. Fill 2/3 full, make entrance tunnel, and cats will create custom nests. #feralcats #communitycats #tnr #catsofbluesky #bideawee

Knowing your rights is key when it comes to protecting community cats. Sometimes that means speaking up, not just for the cats but for yourself.
Educating others on the importance of #TNR and community cat care can make all the difference!

Community cats are generally not socialized to people or adoptable. In shelters without lifesaving programs, these cats will be killed.
A community cat should only enter an animal shelter temporarily as part of #TNR.
