The Compact Catio |
This catio
shows that an enclosure doesn't need to be huge to be a
wonderful space for several cats and have lots of features.
It's about 5' x 6' and sits on the patio outside the living
room. |
|
There are
fifteen shelves in this small catio - enough for lots of kitties
to claim a prime perch. Strong wire mesh keeps the kitties
safe but gives them a very open feel and lets them see, hear and
smell everything that's going on in the trees, shrubs, and yard
right outside. |
|
A metal roof
provides shade and protection from the rain. |
|
Kitty cutouts
are cute and appealing to both humans and felines ;o) |
|
From inside
the living room, looking out the big window you can see the
whole catio. I replaced the window screen with a piece of
clear plexiglass to keep the view, and mounted a small cat door
in the plexiglass for kitty access to the catio. |

A kitty door
doesn't have to be very large to accomodate almost any size cat.
If a cat can fit their head through an opening, the rest of them
will usually follow....especially if there's something really
interesting on the other side ;o) |
