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.

    Great Product

    Posted by Jeff Jarrett on 18th Nov 2013

    Prior to purchasing this product, I was using a "large sized" kitty litter box with a lid for my outdoor cat shelter. My cat would only seem to use it in the afternoon--never in the evening when it got cool. After purchasing the insulated kitty tube my cat uses it day and night! When I reach in to pet her, she is purring---she loves it. I love the fact that it is insulated. My wife does not like cats, so unfortunately our cat has to be an "outdoor" cat. However, with the kitty tube, I sleep better at night knowing that our cat can stay warm. I also like the way that the top can be easily removed for accessibility and cleaning. I also like the roominess of the product--our cat has plenty of space to spread out comfortably.

    the perfect out door cat house-at last!

    Posted by Unknown on 16th Nov 2013

    I have shopped around for cat houses for years, and been very disappointed. Found them to be very expensive, and not adequate at all. I have even made some myself. but the Kitty Tube is perfect! The materials, the design-everything about it is so perfect and well done. While it was still inside our house, right after we opened it up and put it together, one of our cats went right in and stayed there! He loves it!

    Excellent design for outdoor cats

    Posted by Shari Snider on 15th Nov 2013

    Simple design and well thought out. Just the right weight to be able to move around easily, but heavy enough not to get blown away by strong winds. Had no problem with a feral outdoor cat entering and using it. I love the way it will come apart for easy cleaning. Works perfectly for my purpose.

    Best kitty house ever!

    Posted by Joann on 15th Nov 2013

    I thought I would have trouble getting my cats in the tube, but no problem at all. But now I have three toms and one will go in there and battle the other two to keep them out! I am thinking of getting another one, but want to give them a chance to get a long like they did before! It is very sturdy and looks quite cozy with a nice fluffy pillow included. I also ordered the electric heater which is on the way. I have a St. Bernard who likes to harass my poor babies and this tube seriously ticks him off as he can't get his nose in there!

    My stray went straight in!

    Posted by Unknown on 14th Nov 2013

    I didn't want to put the huge green Velux blanket out on one of the porch chairs like I did last winter complete with my heating pad under one of the folds...it just looked so bad. I reviewed lots of outdoor cat houses but just kept coming back to this one. Most of the reviews were positive so I bit the bullet & ordered the version with pillow & heat pad. Cue went in & out three times & when I looked for him later, took the lid of the kitty tube & there he was...& there he stayed. It's bigger than I thought...would comfortably hold 2 cats. I could almost do with a smaller size as my cats are not for sharing! Delighted with purchase!

    The Kitty Tube is a Necessity!

    Posted by Nikki M. on 10th Nov 2013

    After much research, I ordered my first kitty tube last winter. WOW-I'm impressed so much that I'm ordering the third one due to our colony size- each will hold 3 full sized cats. I'm a tough critic, but i couldn't find one thing to change. I did my homework & this is the best product/solution. All of the cats went right in for the whole winter & only came out to eat/drink & bathroom breaks (do not put food in it). They were protected from wind, rain, snow, ice & other critters. The Kitty Tube did not chip, crack or fade in the past year despite being in the harsh sun & other elements. It has a dark classy look to it-looks great everywhere. We had a fox problem & all the neighborhood cats, kittens & puppies were eaten except ours in The Kitty Tube. We put it on the deck with the opening facing our kitchen door. Highly recommend this! It's really fun to see them in there & they love watching us too. We could even see momma with her babies. The kids & our guests love it too. The closer to the house the safer they'll be. Position the opening away from critters. There is thick insulation, but if you live where it freezes-buy the heating pad too. It won't make them hot- it'll keep their body temp to what it should be. Towels & blankets will freeze! Cats die from frostbite & it's totally preventable. My cats were always scared & cold before i bought this. Now, no worries for them or me. I don't have to worry at night, or while at work or out of town. It can be used year round-just turn the lid to expose the vents. It has the perfect opening size for cats to get in/out, but keeps critters out. The awning is great too. Assembly is easy- put the lid on & attach awning. To top it off...made in USA from recycled materials, lifetime guarantee, you'll receive it quick & great customer service. As a pet owner, whether intended or not-it's the right thing to do. You won't regret it! I tell everyone about this product...it definetely lives up to it's 5 star rating!
