Whether you've adopted a cat that spends most of its time outdoors or a feral cat has decided to adopt you, setting up the proper weatherproof outdoor cat shelter will keep felines comfortable all year round. For those who live where it gets cold in the winter, cat houses with door flaps help keep a cat cozy and dry. If you live where it gets hot, a light-colored cat enclosure can best maintain a good temperature inside.
While having an outdoor cat means you don't have to worry about litter boxes (even though there are a few pretty cool self-cleaning litter boxes out there now) or findingthe right vacuum to suck up pet hair, you'll still want to invest in some great cat food, a few cat toys and water bowls.
The Good Housekeeping Institute pros regularly test and recommend pet products. For this story, we consulted veterinarian Megan Conrad, M.B.B.S., who works for Wellhaven Pet Health outside of Portland, Oregon. She shares the features that are worth paying extra for, including an escape door and high perches. «Mostly, an outdoor cat house should be resistant to heat and cold and should provide adequate shelter from the elements,» Conrad says. Our product experts looked at dozens of highly-rated options, sifted through the reviews and spoke with pet experts to find the best outdoor cat housesin 2024. At the end, read more about what to consider when picking the right outdoor cat house and how you can insulate it for winter.

Six on Saturday: Velvet Petticoats, Eyeliner, Sprouts and Stately Stems
I must be honest and say that the petticoats are not velvet, but two pots of hooped petticoat narcissi in the Coop, Narcissus bulbocodium ‘Arctic Bells’ and ‘Casual Elegance’ (above); what is velvet, however, is a plant recommended for a cool greenhouse by well-known UK nurseryman Bob Brown. I was trying to find suitable contenders for the Coop and bit my tongue as I tried to ignore that it has yellow flowers – I am glad I did as the foliage is not only delightful but tactile too, and as a plant it has sailed through two winters with negligible attention and without batting an eyelid, looking every bit as smart as it did when I first bought it. Let me introduce you to Oxalis spiralis ‘Sunset Velvet’ (below):

How to Pick the Best Mulch for Your Mountain West Garden Beds
Since entering horticulture professionally over a decade ago, I’ve noticed a correlation on the Colorado Front Range between wood mulch (also called arborist chips) and water-wise gardens. A beautifully designed garden goes in, with appropriate irrigation and plant palette, and the garden looks great—briefly—before languishing. Plants in these beds never quite take off, or they fail before their natural lifespans are over. I casually refer to this as plant/mulch mismatch, and it’s an issue I see too often, maybe because mulch is anything but exciting to the average homeowner.
