Product Overview

Welcome to The New Generation of The Kitty Tube™

  

Introducing GENERATION 4! 

 

Here at The Kitty Tube™ we are always thinking about the safety and well-being of your kitty. 

With that in mind, we've taken Gen 3's vapor proof barrier and lid vent cap, and added our exclusive flow-through foam layer. 

Gen 3's features + Gen 4's innovations = The driest kitty on the block!

 

 The new features of Generation 4 include: 

l 15% thicker bottom insulation than the previous model

l  Insulation is elevated off the bottom of The Kitty Tube™ to keep it higher off the cold ground

l  Specialized flow-through foam layer is now placed under the bottom insulation of The Kitty Tube™

l  The flow through bottom layer prevents all moisture caused by condensation from ever reaching bedding

l  The new and improved drainage system eliminates moisture out of the bottom of the shelter

 

The Kitty Tube™ is Guaranteed to keep the weather out and is simply the highest quality insulated outdoor cat house on the market today!

 The Kitty Tube™ with Straw comes with:

  • Door Awning & Clear Flap Door: The door awning improves rain/snow protection and includes a gasket to eliminate any water weepage around the edges. The clear flap door is designed to repel wind and helps to keep heat inside the Kitty Tube during cold weather seasons. The clear flap door can be installed and removed easily without tools. NOTE: The door awning set is also available for all older model Kitty Tubes with a logo. See separate listing. 

  • Vent Cap & Gasket: The vent cap was created to eliminate moisture laden air that can build up under the top lid. This moisture laden air can cause condensation in certain temperature swings. The vent cap serves the same purpose as the vents on the roof of your own home that expel excessive moisture in the winter and heat in the summer. The vent cap is very important in maintaining a dry interior for your cat. NOTE: This cap is also sold separately to install on all older model Kitty Tubes and will greatly improve its performance. A 1½ inch hole is needed on the top dead center of the lid to install. If retrofitting an older Kitty Tube, a standard 1 ½” hole saw is needed to make a hole for the vent cap.
  • Main Insulation with Scratch Guard™: This insulation set will cover the walls, floor and ceiling of The Kitty Tube. The Kitty Tube Scratch Guard™ and vapor proof insulation is easy to remove and clean. The new Scratch Guard™ material on all interior surfaces is moisture proof, mold proof, mildew proof and bacteria proof. Deodorizing and sanitizing of the interior is now a breeze, as cat urine or spray from a male cat will not soak into the Scratch Guard™.  The Scratch Guard™ material will virtually eliminate damage from clawing and will considerably reduce condensation from forming in cold temperatures.
  • Ventilation Hand Hole Awnings: The Kitty Tube includes awnings that protect the handle/ventilation holes in the lid from rain and snow. These awnings also provide a comfortable handle when removing the lid or moving the Kitty Tube.

The Feral Option Kitty Tube comes with straw. Straw is the preferred bedding for feral cats as it resists moisture and retains body heat as the cats can burrow into the straw. This option is recommended by most Cat Rescue Groups.

The Kitty Tube provides a safe, economical and maintenance free shelter for your cat. Designed for outdoor use, The Kitty Tube is fully insulated to be ultra warm in the winter. The shell is partially made from post-consumer recycled milk and detergent bottles making the Kitty Tube a very green product AND The Kitty Tube is MADE IN THE USA!

 The Kitty Tube has a removable top lid, is seamless in construction and is environmentally friendly due to the post consumer recycled content. The one piece construction provides for a smooth interior which is easily cleaned with a simple spray of the garden hose. The dome lid keeps your pet dry in even the heaviest of rains. The geometric shape resists wind and is naturally preferred by cats. The high quality, fully insulated Kitty Tube is strongly recommended for all outdoor cats and also creates a safe and secure haven if your cat is to give birth.

 

About our 1 door design: The unique door design provides easy passage for your cat, but will not allow a predator like dogs or coyotes to get to your cat.  The Kitty Tube was intentionally designed with only one door.  There are several reasons for this design:

  • With one door, the exceptionally insulated Kitty Tube will retain the majority of the heat your cat produces inside, compared to other designs with two doors that allow excessive air movement through the shelter.
  • One door will keep your cat safe and secure as predators cannot fit their head inside the unique door design of The Kitty Tube. Most small animals such as possums or raccoons are generally not a life threatening danger to your cat.
  • We feel it is a misconception to provide a second door for an escape in case of a predator attack.  If your cat leaves their safe haven of The Kitty Tube, it is now vulnerable to be caught by predators. Predators such as dogs and coyotes know how to catch a fleeing cat.
  • Most kittens born inside of a Kitty Tube are NOT moved as usual by their mother, as they feel safe inside!

Product Features and specs.

  • The Kitty Tube provides an economical, safe, and secure home for up to 3 cats. (Only 2 cats if you have the double insulated option.)
  • The Kitty Tube comes complete with a fully insulated shell, a removable top lid, enough straw for 2 to 3 changes, a main door awning with removable clear flap door, a vent cap for the top lid, a rubber plug for the optional heater hole and 2 hand hole awnings to protect the top ventilation holes.
  • The Kitty Tube is fully insulated on floor, walls and roof with quality, high R value insulation. All with the Scratch Guard™.
  • The hand hole openings can be adjusted to supply full flow through air ventilation for the summer and can be closed for the winter.
  • The Kitty Tube shell is very durable with a lifetime guarantee to never chip, crack or fade.
  • The dimensions are 24″ round x 24″ tall with lid on.
  • The bottom surface of The Kitty Tube is slightly elevated off the ground and incorporates a built in channel and drainage system to eliminate any subsequent moisture that might enter The Kitty Tube due to unforeseen circumstances.

    Awesome

    Posted by Cathy on 14th Jan 2015

    Just received my first Kitty Tube. Shipped fast, took just minutes to put together, looks great & took only 2 minutes for one of my feral to take up residence. Will be ordering 2 more.

    Awesome!

    Posted by Ed on 8th Jan 2015

    This is a great product. I can't believe no one thought of this before. I also have some feral cats in my back yard that I feed. It's winter time, and I couldn't stand by and see them freeze. So, I bought The Kitty Tube: fast delivery, easy to put together. I put it out on the back porch, and one of the cats immediately went to investigate the new Kity Tube. I can't wait to see them come out of The Kitty Tube. I will buy another one if needed. This product has made me happy to provide some shelter to needy cats. I totally recommended this for cat lovers everywhere. Best product on the market! Thanks Kitty Tube!

    Excellent product! Incredible design with cat comfort and environment in mind

    Posted by PJ on 10th Dec 2014

    We researched a lot of heated cat homes on line and ultimately chose the Kitty Tube. We are glad we chose this product! Excellent design with cat comfort in mind. Hopefully low cost to us to heat. Does not look too obtrusive outside and glad it is made from recycled materials. The awning is a great addition -- seems to keep rain out. Just reading - ours only has one layer of insulation on top and sides.. Thank you for a great product.

    Loved it so much ordered another

    Posted by Pat on 6th Dec 2014

    I have one of these but the cat was telling his friends where to come for a free meal and cozy sleep arrangements so I had to get another. Jim has been so helpful with any questions I had, so if you are looking for a solution for your feral cat or cats don't hesitate this company is five star and you will be so happy with your purchase. It arrived on Friday in a huge box and I had it together tops 10 minutes. I got the double insulation and the safety heater, the cats watched me put it together and on Saturday morning the newest feral came out of the KT waiting for his breakfast. Thank you Jim for the best cat shelter there is. =^..^=

    Great house for strays

    Posted by Linda on 3rd Dec 2014

    We have three strays that hang out in the back yard. The mother brought them to us, stayed while they needed nursing and then she took off. The three stay in our back yard for the most part. We were worried about the cold weather coming -- I did a lot of searching on the internet for a good shelter but nothing seemed much better than the houses we devised out of covered litter pans ... until I found the Kitty Tube. Ordered it and received it quickly. I'm not disappointed at all. Very sturdy, well made, good insulation. We got the heating pad and double insulation. The three cats took to it right away -- all three fit in it. I love seeing them go in and out of it -- makes me happy that they have a safe, warm place to sleep. I consider this money well spent.

    IF CAT COULD SPEAK HE'D SAY WOW!!!

    Posted by Portia on 13th Nov 2014

    So speaking on behalf of my adopted feral cat, Jasper, he is very happy with his new abode!!! It's very cleverly constructed and clearly a quality product that a lot of thought has gone into. The warming pad is great - a very safe design. It gives me peace knowing my outdoor kitty is protected, warm and dry. That said, I'm considering ordering the extra insulation for even more warmth...and apparently coolness in the summer. One suggestion if you're having trouble getting a cat to use the kitty tube - remove the awning until they get used to the tube and then put it on. Seemed to work best that way for us. Thank you so much for a great product!!!

    The feral cat house that has everything

    Posted by 616 on 11th Nov 2014

    Seems everything has been carefully thought out in the design of this terrific cat home, which I bought for a feral cat I've been feeding, as I am very worried about the upcoming frigid cold winter. Simple to assemble, and the feral cat immediately went inside and rested for awhile on the first day, though she didn't on days 2 and 3. I expect she will be back when it is colder, since she stops by to eat every day. I ordered the double insulation since my condominium is old and doesn't have outside electrical outlets for the heated bed.

    Love the Kitty Tube

    Posted by Betty on 10th Nov 2014

    I really love the Kitty Tube. I have been searching for some time now trying to find something safe and warm for Ms. Kitty who lives outside. Ms. Kitty has taken well to the Kitty Tube and seems to be happy in it. I hope she will be warm and safe this winter.

    Happy Surprise!

    Posted by L foster on 7th Nov 2014

    Oscar, the cat, was a stray a few months ago. I ordered the Kitty Tube in hopes he would use it in cold or rainy weather. The unusually cold nights came about the same time the Tube was delivered. Two nights ago I called Oscar, expecting him to come from a neighbors yard several doors down. I was pleasantly surprised to find he had taken over the Kitty Tube and had come out to greet me, warm as toast! This product is everything it was described to be. I highly recommend it.
