Bowl Pet House

This instructable shows how to quickly make a very comfortable house for your small pets using cheap materials. I don't know who is the original author of the idea but it is a very ingenious and creative way of using common plastic ware, and it is also so easy to do that you can do yours just looking at the first picture. But if you think you can't do, you can read the rest of this instructable.

Ha! I love it. One of my kittens loves sitting in a plastic bowl she found in the kitchen. It's her designated kitchen-helper bowl now where she can sit and give helpful critiques.

Brilliant! I would never have thought of this - but our dollar store has a zillion cool bowls and buckets I could try. Thanks!

This is a great instructable! Is your cute cat still a kitten? I have two fully grown cats and would like to make them each one and wonder if the houses would be big enough for them to fit.

Thanks for posting this one!

Thanks,

Miolo is still a kitten but the hose is big enough even for my grown up cat that weights 6Kg (~13 pounds).
