If you're using your modular kennel outside, the number one accessory that you may want to consider is a cover.

There are also covers that act as roofs to keep your pet dry and protected from the elements.
When you're shopping for an outdoor cat house there are a number of things you should consider.
Although there are several things to loOK for, cleanliness speaks volume. Therefore, the premises inside and outside should be tidy and properly maintained, walls nicely painted, no signs of mold, mildew or deterioration, and animal's bowls filled with fresh food and water. Even the smell of a kennel would be a telltale sign. While eliminating all pet odors would be impossible, the facility should never have an overwhelming odor.
Does the outdoor cat house have a flap for a door? Some do and some don't. But there are also some that have an overhang and a recessed door which will also stop the weather from affected your cat while they're inside. Either feature is good to have.
