Join us as we unveil the creation of our ultimate Catio Home, complete with all our closely guarded secrets. The process spanned several days, with plenty of helping hands, as we were resolute in crafting the perfect feline haven. Begin by locating a shaded and tranquil area, clearing the land, and marking out your designated space. Then, it’s time to roll up your sleeves and get to work! For this project, we enlisted workers for framing and landscaping, with labor costs comprising the bulk of the expenses. 🏡🐾
Our primary objective is to establish a secure and enjoyable outdoor habitat for our beloved shelter cats. If you’re contemplating creating a Catio or outdoor space, consider incorporating features that encourage exercise, climbing, cozy hiding spots, and comfortable sleeping areas. Our Catio also features native, non-toxic plants. Additionally, we’ve produced several videos covering Catio Design and other elements to enhance your feline companions’ experience. So, let your imagination roam and think like a curious cat!
