I've been looking for pics of cat houses. I have been buying those plastic paint buckets from home depot/lowes and cutting the middle out of the tops and stretching mosquito netting over them. I stick the cuttings in a small rockwool cube and put them in with the cats. I put a paper towel in the bottom and lift it out when I clean up behind them.

Problem is, I have about 22 cats now and I have lots of little buckets!

I also have a cage I ordered for insectlore.com and a terrarium and I have two chrysalis’ in the terrarium and 3 in the insect lore cage. I am going to move the two chrysalis’ in the terrarium to the insect lore cage.

I have 3 big cats in the insect lore cage and I am hoping they turn soon so I have all chrysalis’ in one place.

I am thinking of buying a terrarium from petco or someplace so I can get more organized.

Any suggestions to my setup are welcome because I guessed at everything!

Here's the insect lore cage, I managed to squeeze in a pot I put tropical milkweed in to it and tied it off so they couldn't crawl on the bottom. I don't think I'll do a pot this way again though.
