Castles for Shelter Cats
Castles for Shelter Cats
SKU: SKU: SK-GTGM0461
Shelters can be scary and stressful for many animals. Cats in shelters often live in small stainless steel cages with litter pans, food, water, and a towel or blanket. Although this certainly provides the basic physical needs, a setting of this nature is not comfortable for a cat that is already tense and confused in unfamiliar surroundings.
The Cat Castle provides a safe and secure area for the cat to relax and minimizes the stress that comes with shelter life. Made in the U.S.A., the Cat Castle's bottom section is an enclosed space that has multiple ventilation holes and a 'drawbridge,' giving the cat ready access to a private, safe hiding place. The top section is a perfect surveillance point for cats that want to see what's going on in the shelter. The Cat Castle provides shelter cats with the opportunity to become familiar with new surroundings at their own pace, a process that is important for a cat's mental health.
When a shelter cat is adopted into a new family, the Cat Castle easily transforms into a secure cat carrier for transportation. The box can then be reassembled into the Castle format to provide a safe, familiar retreat that is already saturated with the cat's own scent, while the cat adjusts to her new setting peacefully. This is a much smoother transition than coming straight from the shelter with no familiar comfort.
You can help. Just $5 provides one Cat Castle to a shelter cat. Your generous donation will improve the well-being and happiness of a shelter cat waiting for the perfect forever home.

I love donating too all the cats and I hope these castles made their day a little brighter!
I didn't buy these for myself or my kitties I donated them to shelters. I hope they are put to good use and help shelter cats.
Thanks
I am a volunteer at a local animal shelter. A couple years ago, our shelter received several of these castles and all the kitties love it. I was hoping to purchase more for our shelter. As it is not available for consumer purchase, I did the next best thing and donated several of these castles. I hope this product will eventually be available for purchase or allow an option where we can designate a shelter where the donation can be delivered to.
