Instead of taking measures to protect their animals or property, they just want the predators removed. Thank you for being considerate to your animal neighbors

    There is a weird mentality with some people, where big and small, they don't like to think about negative possibilities. It's so strange for me, as I'm the kind of person who would rather worry about the fringe case, plan for it, and then feel better knowing I was diligent and aware. I've seen it with people and their kids, not wanting to acknowledge a developmental deficiency, a lot. This is usually when I find out someone is a "don't want to think about it!" type person.

It's like, it's their forests, and we've taken them. Ask any forest ranger and they'll tell you stories about tourists asking why there are wild animals running around and isn't that dangerous. Like yes, life isn't completely safe and sanitary, especially out in the wild. Animals do animal stuff. Once, I had a friend visiting from New York try to call the police because there was an opossum in our yard while he was visiting. The animals aren't the problem, the people who don't know enough to take basic precautions or who see the tiniest threat as the end of the world are the problem.

    This is good for homeowners but if you rent, and want to be able to take the catios with you plus get your deposit back, consider a window catio that is built with some standard dimensions. I have three multi-level catios made of lightweight PVC pipes, actual roofing material and movable shelves covered in vinyl. The cool thing about these, made for me by a local guy in Central California, is that all the pieces snap together in minutes and snap apart in seconds, sustain no weathering or damage from pee (though my cats do not spray) and attach with a few small screws to just the wooden window frame. All I need to do is take them down and fill in the holes the same as I would for a picture hung on my wall when I move. Landlord and management approved!

    So you asked; we have 3 DIY catios now in our yard and found your builder and video very good. As hopeless fans of our felines we had to figure out a way to give them that safe outdoor life that they deserve. Seems like we are constantly updating our catios and filming in order to educate others on how to make or update their catio. It's all about the little details. Yours will love the catio you have provided no doubt. Nice to meet your Kitten Lady and great job on Catio awareness.
