Neurotic? or Just Love My Cats?

My husband and I built a little three foot by two foot "house" for our outdoor cats. It has a peaked shingled roof and is sided just like our house. It has insulation, carpet and heat. I was wondering if there is anybody out there that cares for their animals like this or if I am just going overboard. Has anybody done something similar for their cat?

I always say I'd like to come back as a cat to one of my family members. We all bend over backwards to make them feel comfortable, We cover them with infant blankets when we feel the house is chilly. My son built a small house outdoors for the few strays that would visit our yard. Of course we fed them too. One morning though we found a baby opposium sleeping in it. As it got lighter he left.

I think that sounds wonderful, if i could afford it i would build my whole backyard into a cat house sort of safe haven where my cat could be in his own world and couldn't get out and no other cats could get in but for him to feel free. I have a brand new shed in the yard and i have the door ajar at all times and he has a pillow inside as he wont sleep in beds i have bought and in the winter he likes to sleep inside the house so i have an electric blanket on low on the spare bed for him, so i guess you could say he has his own bed.... they deserve to be spoilt.
