We have a male cat that lives in my garage/workshop. He comes and stays all day on the porch and we feed him several times a day. He is quite friendly and will allow us to pet him. Really a good looking cat but we don't want him inside since we already have a (used to be) male cat. So i put an old cat bed in the garage which he sleeps on. What i would like to do is make some sort of enclosure that would help to keep him warm in the winter months. I would like to rig some sort of device that would turn on a low wattage light or something that would provide warmth as long as he is in the enclosure. What kind of material would be the best insulator in this case? Is a heat source really necessary if i make a well insulated enclosure? This will be his second winter in the garage but i would like to make this one a little easier on him. Ken, making dust in NS
