GOT PORTALS?

Adding portals to your single-compartment housing is one of the most
cost-effective ways of increasing cat health and well-being in your shelter.

Standard single cage housing does not meet cats’ needs to take a few steps and
lie in normal postures. Nor does it provide for the separation of the
resting/eating area from the bathroom area. When these basic needs are not met,
cats often experience stress, which can lead to illness and unnecessary
euthanasia.

Our Facility Design expert, Dr. Denae Wagner, developed the portals that are
used at hundreds of shelters across the world. Learn more from our Portals:
Opening the Door to Lifesaving page.
