Ferals get in through that small opening in the bottom at the right

the gardening shed has more room for them in inclement whether... they
can go in my barn too but I don't plan on plowing a path out there
this winter. We won't tell them it's a dog house:

explain this, Sheldon. What small opening in the bottom at the right
hand corner? All I see is a dog house thingie with one big opening and
why is the roof made that way?

I don't see an opening at the bottom right either. But
they will enjoy being out of the weather. Do you put some
old towels or old bath rugs in there for cushioning, too?
Even a piece or two of carpeting will make it comfortable.

That garage has the opening for critters. I will keep that house in
the garage and it will contain lots of bedding. I'm not going to make
it too comfortable, no heating pads, I don't want to encourage
preditors to take up residense there. I don't know if the cats will
use that house, they spend time up in the rafters where they are
safe... at night they are in their heated houses on my deck... they
appreciate those heated houses, winters here are brutal. I made that
garage my gardening shed, houses my small tractor and gardening tools,
plus a small shop in the rear. It's handy because it's close to my
vegetable garden, and also closer to my house than my barn... I like
having that small tractor close by as it enables me transportation
around all these acres, otherwise I'd spend all my time and energy
walking all those distances carrying heavy items and I'd never get
anything done.

You're a waste of 7 dollars in electrolytes.

That detached garage is my gardening shed, look at the right hand
corner at ground level, critters dug a small entrance there... the
shed floor is crushed stone. The dog house has an overhang to keep
rain out. That dog house is made to be outside but I'm keeping it
inside my gardening shed for the cats, I'll have it filled with straw
for bedding, I buy several bales of straw every year... straw and hay
are not the same. Straw is made up of hollow tubes, excellent
insulating properties for animal bedding and straw contains no seeds
so is excellent for garden mulching... works very well for covering a
newly seeded lawn keeping the birds from feasting... also very good as
mulch for tomato plants, keeps rain from splashing up mud on the
leaves. Hay is animal feed, it's loaded with seeds, and once hay is
established it's near impossible to get rid of it, and it's not
possible to pull up by those steel cable roots to China. Much of my
property was hay fields, the only way to get rid of hay is to keep
mowing it short so it can't reseed, slowly I've been getting rid of it
and sod grass is taking over.
