cat cubby

Outdoor cubbies commonly use waterproof materials and design details to keep pets dry, such as PVC waterproof Oxford cloth, rain-blocking door flaps, and raised bottoms to prevent water ingress from the ground.

Care varies by model. Common instructions include spot cleaning or wiping, hand-washing and air-drying removable covers, washing items separately, or dry-clean only for some fabrics. Many smaller beds and pads are described as “easy to clean”—follow the product’s care label for best results.

Some listings describe heated shelters or built-in heating pads and note a maintained surface temperature. One outdoor shelter is labeled “Heated” and reports a surface temperature range around 30–55°C.

Interior compartments often measure about 15–16" square with heights in the mid-teens. Examples include 15.5" x 15" x 17" and units around 16" x 16" x 18.5". Entry openings shown include an 11.5" front entry width and entries around 7.5" x 8" on other models.
