There is a difference between rescuing stray cats and wild cats. Stray cats refer to cats that are adapted to life but live in the wilderness.

Occasionally we want to adopt stray cats, but due to various reasons there is no suitable location at home To give the cat a foothold, we might as well use cardboard, wooden boards, etc. to temporarily build a nest for the cat.
This is what a college student from the School of Information Engineering of Yangzhou University does, "double11" Afterwards, the flow of express boxes continued. Faced with piles of discarded express boxes downstairs in the dormitory, the students took action and turned these express boxes into doghouses, storage boxes, and volunteer walls. They turned waste into treasure and beautified the environment, killing two birds with one stone. Fu Shenggao, a sophomore, led his classmates to create "comfortable nests" for stray cats and dogs using larger express cartons. They placed their nests in places where stray kittens and puppies often hang out. They also said that they would often come to take a look at these stray cats and dogs and give them some dog and cat food.
How to use a foam box to provide a shelter for stray cats to keep out the cold?
1. It is best to use foam boxes, which are the kind used to sell lunch boxes. The insulation effect is particularly good. You might as well ask for it from the seafood seller or the fruit seller. If you can't find it, you might as well use a thick cardboard box, preferably with 2 layers. First, use a paper cutter to cut a round hole in the port (to protect the cat, it can go in) - remember that the opening must be opened at one end and higher than the ground.This can keep the wind intake smaller and the internal space wider.

2. Wrap the box and lid separately with old cloth (otherwise the box will be scratched by the cat quickly). Remember to fix the lining cloth. The lining of the lid is easy to wrap, but the lining of the box is more difficult. Some people use thread to sew it, while others use wooden strips and other objects to squeeze it on each side of the lower layer, as long as it does not fall off.
3. After wrapping the lining cloth, cover the lid tightly. Seal with non-stick tape on all sides. It is best to wrap the surface of the box with plastic to prevent water leakage. It's best to put a large black plastic bag for garbage, which is waterproof and invisible (the white color is eye-catching, and picking up tattered things may be harmful). The entrance to the cave should also be well-protected. (You can ask for a few large black plastic bags from the person who cleans the unit)
4. Place a cotton mat in the box. If you buy a loose cotton quilt, you can use it to make multiple mats. Some people also keep waterproof changing pads, so you might as well take them out and clean them from time to time. You can also use an old quilt to make a sleeping bag. Use iron wire to form a square port at the end. Place the bag in a box. Separately tie one corner of the sleeping bag with two ropes, then pull it out from the hole in the box and wrap it around the surface of the box a few times to secure it.
5. For safety reasons, it is best to find a hidden place to put the box. It is because there are trees and walls under the sunny wall. Firstly, it prevents people from stealing. Secondly, the cat can feel safe. The bottom of the box should be padded with bricks to prevent it from being soaked by rain, snow or water. There should be something heavy on top of the box, preferably a board. Note that it is best to face the sun at the entrance of the cave to avoid the wind.
