Make a Kitten Cage

This is an easy, inexpensive way to make a cage for a kitten.

Steps

 * 1) Get a box you think will be big enough for your kitty.
 * 2) Cut some small holes (about 1 inch or 25 mm in diameter is good) for air exchange in the box.
 * 3) Make sure the bottom is secure, and reinforce it if necessary.
 * 4) Take a plastic bag that will fit at the bottom of the box.  Use it to line the bottom so urine will not soak through, should your kitten have an accident.
 * 5) Shred up some paper and put it in one side of the box.
 * 6) Put some old towels in the other side of the box.
 * 7) Finally, put the kitten in and put something on top as a cover.

Tips

 * You might want to put a blanket in with the towels to keep your kitten warm.
 * You can add a door by making hole in the box, but make sure you can close it if you plan to transport the kitten in it.

Warnings

 * Shred the paper yourself by hand -- DON'T use a shredder or scissors. Cut paper edges can give the kitten paper cuts.
