A draught excluder in the shape of a cat

A draught excluder or draft stopper is used to eliminate cold draught and slow heat loss. It is placed in the bottom crack of doors and windows.[1][2] Tubular sand-filled fabric draught excluders are commonly referred to as "door snakes" in Australia.[3][4]
