Confine them together or not...

Iv spent a fortune on their ops already so i cant, frustratingly i have my limits. Theres excess beds but not of the heated type which is what gooey needs 
The visiting cats have 'owners' but not of the kind who have their pets as family 
One is 15, stinks to high heaven because he needs a dental, and has arthritis, iv had a word but nothings happened, i cant keep him in my pen because they could see from their upstairs window! So not the easiest of cats to nap away from them

Or you can add a few extra beds ...

  Il try it out one night i can stay up and listen, they probably sleep most of the night anyway, just me worrying 
I dont want to make Gooeys mood worsen as it wont help him get a home

[Kay and Penny]

I think you have to try it or you will never know - what is the worst that could happen?

I wouldn't have thought two cats who are used to each other would do one another harm, even if they won't be curled up in each other's paws in the morning

Why dont you try it one night and see how it works, or even part of a night so you could momitor the situation......I guess not meows and fights inside mean alls Ok and if they start to have probs you would hear?

Deter and Magoo share my mums shed, its kitted out with everything they need/want, and has a cat flap in the door. Im having problems with the neighbours cats scoffing all their night food and evicting gooey off his heat pad (they dont mess with dexters!)
Im considering blocking the flap at night but gooey doesnt really like dexter that much, its a toleration of each other as its better than being homeless!

Its not a tiny shed so not a space issue, should i make them hang out all night to stop the other cats getting in   
I dont like to think of gooey not having a warm bed  i feel sorry for the other cats too of course but gooey has to be priority
