I have a huge canvas tent that we use for SCA stuff and I take it and air it out before and after winter, and I just stay out there for a few days, we have a lot of strays that just come and chill with me and we both sleep out there at night and its real good for great cuddling and just enjoying each others presence. Plus again late night strays will sleep with us.

There’s likely a monastery nearby, or a field, or a forest where you can get the same experience. A tent covered with blackout curtains costs little and dampens what little sound and light you’ll find.

On the one hand, that’s adorable. On the other, I’m sad that so many friendly animals aren’t being housed.

We are out in the country so they have a good food source of mice and moles from the farm land. So we make boxes for them in the winter and put out some food once a week just for supplemental food source for them. They are good kids and if we can we get them fixed, they do a big open call for them a few times a year and they just call us and are like how many can you get and send us over lots of carriers. Then for a week our house is just FULL (we have the main house, the barn and a chicken coop to keep little ones ) till we are sure they healed correctly then as they can they leave.

That is, once again, precious. Just a self replenishing stock of friendly fuzziness to be fished out of the forest. I wish you all the best in what is assuredly the most gratifying, and exhausting, week of the year, whenever that might be

Agreed. Besides industrial waste, old factories often have motion-detector silent alarms. If not, they may have squatters who may or may not be cool with intruders. If not, if you have some kind of medical emergency it might be months before you are found.
Comment-OP, minimal food’s not really necessary - one of the things about Gautama Buddha is that he gave up mortifying the flesh. And you definitely shouldn’t dehydrate yourself bc that can cause organ damage.
