  • 1.  Is there research/data related to optimal shelter temperature and lighting regimes?

    Posted 04-12-2024 12:50 PM

    Hello,

    I did a search and have been looking for solid sources that would assist with determining a good temperature for cats in a communal shelter and also for lighting. More specifically what is too warm? too cold? Should all the lights go out at night? Is there a detriment to cats with having lights on in their area all night long? I've been looking for research and I found some but it was for contained cats, not large communal spaces.

    Thanks!

    Hello! I'm searching for the same information! I didn't find what I was hoping for, 70-75 with humidity no higher that 70%. Did you ever find any good resources?
