Cats are natural explorers — and the outdoors supports their health, instincts, and happiness. A catio connects that instinct to safety. We design every custom catio to fit your home, your yard, and the particular cat who'll claim it. See how those ideas take shape when you explore our catio styles.
From window-box catios to large catios with towers and elevated tunnels, each custom outdoor cat enclosure starts as a drawing and ends as a space your cat actually lives in.
LumberWeather-graded cedar, redwood, or pressure-treated — stained or painted to match your home.
FencingCat-proof, predator-proof, weather-graded mesh on every face.
AccessWindow inserts, cat doors, tunnels, and full-height doors for humans too.
