Not everyone can install a [catflap in the door](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-pet-door-3), and even those who can don't always want to invite stray cats and cat burglars into their homes. The [stylish oval sleeping pod](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/therapeutic-cat-bed) has a detatchable flap and is available in a number of colors. An insulated sleeping pad keeps kitty warm while she lounges in blissful repose. Think of the KatKabin shelters as a [cozy feline kennel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cat-tree-house-2).
