DIY Cat Tepee

Make a tepee for your cat! Cut a pentagon of fabric for the base of the tepee and cut five triangles for the walls of the tepee. Cut a hole in one of the triangles for a doorway. Cut pieces of elastic bands, fold the bands in half and sew the sides of the triangles together along with the ends of the folded elastic bands near the top and middle to hold the tepee poles.  Sew the base of each triangle onto the pentagon, also with folded elastic bands to hold the horizontal wood dowels in place. Insert wood dowels into the band tubes and tie the tops of the vertical tepee poles together.
