    Hi Karen. I'm Cindy. At the top of this page there is a little blue house in the left-hand corner. If you click on it, you will see past projects. If you don't see the one you're looking for, you can use the search bar. Hope this helps. Good luck Karen.

    Hi don't know who showed you but here's video to show you basics https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8RnrLldlZP4 I do have a few suggestions for you. Instead of using another cold hard plastic container on the inside just use cardboard box much much warmer.Instead of cutting round hole I cut a U-shape( do not cut across the top) just pull the top out and up and it makes a little roof over the opening.You'll have to really crease it so it will stay up enuf for cat to go in & out.If you get it hot with hair dryer it should crease easier,or tip it on side and step/stand on it a few minutes. Do not put styrofoam around door opening because if any gets on cats fur and it licks it off then cat swallows it and it will make your cat very sick.Just use some newspaper crumpled and push between the cardboard and plastic tub around the door area.HERE'S a SUGGESTION https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmLmEDw4y4Q. I work with our local TNR program teaching people cat behaviour and how to trap ferals in the traps we provide for spaying & neutering. THX for helping the outdoor cats who need a helping hand.
