Inside the Most Luxurious Stray Cat Shelter Ever

Do you love cats? Want to help cats in need? Then you need to watch this video!
In this video, I built a luxurious shelter for stray cats and see how they accept the work I did. This shelter is a shelter for cats that don't have a home, and thanks to the amazing volunteers I can continue to help these cats.
Dear friends, I would very much like your opinion on new creations.
Unfortunately, my time is limited, but I will try to upload a video every month. I hope God blesses you for every good deed you do to your fellow human beings and then to every animal.

dear friends, I want to say a big thank you to all of you for your support. I also want you to know that I try to read all the comments and reply to everyone. However, due to my limited time, I reply to a few people every day. Thank you very much for your understanding. Be healthy and God bless you

Take care and God Bless you

[@aflo2468]

Hey, God Bless you for helping those cats. I rescued 3 cats and took them in then I put 2 boxes together with beds for 2 more cats with no place to go. I'm really interested in building a Big Cat house or buying little ones but I'm not sure what to do but I'm taking care of 5 or 6 total now. I'm now a proud subscriber of your channel

[@freemanmt]

Merry Christmas.

[@oOBloodyAllyOo]

Stay safe and healthy! ♥ Thank you for your videos, I subscribed

[@briannzegers2720]

Thank you for doing this 💗🙌 Grab them some more beds and blankets for more comfy spaces to lay, allowing more cats to join at once. Hay is also a GREAT bedding as it holds heat for the colder times of the year, as well as adding cushion.

[@ijustlikethiscrapokay]

i think it’s amazing that you build a warm place for the cats, but i’m even more impressed by your commitment to build it out of scraps and old devices - repurposing what would end up in a junkyard or a landfill into something that positively contributes to the world is amazing

[@grindelston5968]

I think it's more of a cost thing , but yeah it's very nice to see things repurposed

[@kalisederoche]

the first cat to go in looked shocked to find somewhere so cozy!! also the kitty who sat in front of the tv was so funny. youre really making a difference im these cats lives 😽

He's got a nice house, lives with his best friend ,has his friends living in the smaller house next door and they all come round to watch mouse TV together. Don't be sad, be happy!

[@draftkat]

Such respect man. You saw feral cats in trouble and did something amazing to help. It's so nice seeing how comfortable they are. They didn't choose to live on the streets but you made that life a little less hard on them and that kindness will be rewarded back to you in other ways.

It's bittersweet knowing the cats have a warm and safe place to sleep in and take shelter when needed. Seeing them go in and sleep melted my heart. Thank you for all that you do.

[@Caraf]

How is this bittersweet? They got a house just for them so how’s there and element of sadness if they got a happy place?

[@Trina30064]

It is bitter sweet because these kitties and thousands of others have no homes and human beings to take care of them. There is such a problem of feral cats as well as dogs that no human being is having them neutered and spayed so that they don’t keep reproducing more unwanted animals. This certainly the sweeter part because this wonderful human being is doing what he can to make at least some of them have a more comfortable life. And I’m sure these kitties, if captured, and learned to trust, would certainly enjoy a loving family home to have. But at least this wonderful man is doing his part to help with as much of that as he possibly can. Does the bitter sweet now make sense?
