If you’re a certified #CatLover that loves spoiling your feline friend, we have the project for you. This cute little cat tent is a fun, easy craft that your cat will love. Give them a cozy place to snuggle when your lap’s not available.
Materials:
- Two wire hangers
- A square piece of cardboard (about 15″ by 15″ would work best)
- Duct tape
- Wire cutters
- Pliers
- Hole punch or knife
- A medium t-shirt
- Towel or blanket
Directions:
- Cut the hook off the top of the hangers with wire cutters and straighten out the wire. Then bend the wires into similar-looking arches.
- Poke a hole in each corner of your cardboard using a strong hole punch or knife. The holes should be about 1/2″ from the edge.
- Insert one side of one of the hanger arches into a hole. Insert the other end of the arch into the hole diagonal from the first. Repeat this process with the other arch, creating an ‘x’. Duct tape the arches together where they cross.

- Slip your t-shirt over the wires. Shift the shirt until the head hole creates a doorway that your cat can enter. Pull all the excess fabric, including the sleeves, tight and wrap on the bottom. Secure all the extra fabric on the bottom with more duct tape.
