00:03 Hi.
00:06 He's very cautious of everything.
00:08 He would never come into our house.
00:10 No, he doesn't want to come in.
00:11 He doesn't really want to be around people.
00:14 So I knew the only way I could feed him
00:18 was by sneaking food and water under the tree
00:21 when he was gone in hopes that he would come back.
00:25 I just wanted to make sure he was OK,
00:27 because I didn't know for sure.
00:31 I told Chris, hey, it's almost winter.
00:34 I just want to make sure that Bapile is
00:36 going to be warm this winter.
00:38 We do home renovations.
00:40 So I told Chris that I wanted to build him a house.
00:43 I was like, he's a cat.
00:45 He doesn't need us to build him a little box.
00:48 I was like, I'm just going to do this.
00:50 It didn't matter what I thought.
00:51 It was going to happen anyway.
00:53 I was like, oh, fine.
00:54 If we're going to do this, we're going to do it right.
00:56 We're going to build a nice cedar shake cabin for him.
01:00 And it's going to be amazing.
01:01 The main thing was have it insulated so it's warm.
01:08 Oh, my gosh.
01:09 The cedar shake, I think, was the perfect complement
01:19 to our house.
01:19 It's great for protecting the brain.
01:22 On the entryway is a picture that's
01:25 on the top of the Sistine Chapel.
01:26 I think he's a pretty tasteful cat.
01:28 Yeah.
01:29 I think he'll appreciate that.
01:30 Oh, for sure.
01:31 He needed the best of the best.
01:33 We knew that.
01:34 Yeah.
01:35 I'll get on the concrete.
01:38 You're good there.
01:39 We had eyes on the house pretty much from sunup to sundown,
01:51 just so we could see if that belly came into this house.
01:56 It took him about four days before we saw him again.
02:00 Then we finally saw him come.
02:02 He just poked his little head inside the door.
02:04 He didn't go in yet.
02:06 But we were like, hey, that's a success.
02:09 I kept putting his food out.
02:10 I kept putting his water out so that I could lure him in.
02:14 When he was in it and he was just poking his head out,
02:20 he looked like a king.
02:21 Now he's going to be warm this winter.
02:29 And the fact that we get to provide a home for a cat that
02:32 needed it, that's just like a cherry on top.
02:36 It brought the joy back into doing home renovations.
02:39 If he would get comfortable with people,
02:40 we would home him immediately.
02:43 Interest is high.
