According to a survey by AIPAWS, approximately 60% of stray cats die during cold winters. In an attempt to stay warm, they often huddle near community ground lights, but these lights can sometimes burn them. To protect these vulnerable animals, we designed Cattern. Cattern uses the community ground light system to provide warm shelters for stray cats. This design is practical and effective, shielding them from harsh weather while enhancing the community’s landscape.
