Hi Im new to the group and have been reading this thread specifically because we also have a cat problem. I made this hedgehog house in 2016 and its had many habitants until we have a ferule cat/kitten that loves it, it eats anything we put in it for our hedgehogs, so I made the door smaller and eventually I am now reduced to 3" high and 3.75" wide. The bloody cat still gets in, so Ive added a 2ft long tunnel the length of the house with a 90 degree turn at the end, that didnt stop it! So now Ive added two blocks in the entrance tunnel staggered which reduces the internals of the tunnel to 4 x 4 but it still has to squeeze through the 3 x 3.75. I have also added some more dividers in to the house the initial part was the feeding area, but now Ive moved it to the back. If this doesnt work I am stumped.

I hope the video comes out OK
