What amazes me, is why "we" didn't think of catios sooner. The idea is just so brilliant and even a small space outside is a win-win for everyone. This one really is a paradise and totally stress-free for the humans. Where's the cat darling? He's in his catio. Wonderful.

Great idea, protects the cats and the local wildlife.

Love how u incorporated a lot of plants in and outside of the catio, if u want to make it even more discreet, plant some morning glory’s against the tunnels, they climb and they will attract lots of bugs, birds, bees and squirrels.

I love your catio.I always want the fur babies safe and happy .Yours are both .

Thanks so much Dyana. Planning on building some more tunnels hopefully soon

This video is 5 years old, and I love to watch it again and again. Your cats are SOOOOO HAPPY!!!!! I get so excited to be able to watch the cats enjoy their lives like yours obviously do. Bless you. I have 4 regular-sized catios, 4 window catios, and am in the process of building tunnels to connect them. I am also designing a very large catio with lots of enrichment so they may climb, jump, run, or just nap in a 24ft long X 10ft high space. I will say this. My 7 cats (all rescues) have a 4pm curfew, which means all the pet doors are closed, and until 4pm, they can run at large (they stay in my half acre backyard), but all except one, stay inside their catios with the doors wide open. They LOVE their catios so much, and choose to be in them. So, for anyone who complains about cats being in cages, etc, my cats prefer their catios over being loose in the yard, and have since I build them a year ago. Prior to having catios and window catios, they just hung out in the yard until 4pm. I have videos of this, if anyone wants to see them. They aren't edited or professional, etc, but just there for my family to go and view them. My cats run up and down their ramps, lie on the shelves, and sleep in their cuddle boxes. Catos are THE BEST invention to not only keep our beloved babies safe, but also other wildlife as well. WIN WIN. BEAUTIFUL. Bless you.

@@juliakonya7266 oh no, hahaha. You're in trouble now. I walk my dogs every day, most times twice, but I don't walk my cats. That would be hilarious tho. I used to have cats that walked my dogs with me (loose, not on a leash) but they crossed the rainbow bridge. I'm sure my current cats would love to walk with us. At least a couple anyway. They usually come with some trauma, but the ones that don't, would probably love to walk with us. Two of my rescues followed me home while I was walking my dogs, so they'd for sure probably like to. They were neighborhood drop-offs, ughhhhh. Nobody would claim them. In fact, my last 3 were neighborhood drop-offs, now that I think about it. I'll put up more videos when I'm further along on my newest catios and tunnels. I built one in the last couple of weeks for my newest rescue (Ruby) because she's taking a bit longer to integrate with my other cats, and I don't think her window catio is enough for her to get exercise, and enjoy the outdoors. I put one into a tree that has a bunch of birds for some great cat tv for her to enjoy. She's going to love it. Her left ear is tipped, so she's a catch and release that somehow found her way into my neighborhood. Very skittish, but friendly. We live next to a wildlife preserve so we've got coyotes everywhere, mtn lions, bobcats, raccoons, hawks, owls, and everything in between. Have to be VERY careful, even with the dogs. Wayyyy too many predators. Bless you.

I've Been wanting to do this for my two cats. I don't have a fence nor shade around my house its about30-40 to the nearest tree or bush for shade. But for now, I can at least make an outdoor space and just us the darker color roof panels like yours over most of it. Actually, I want a space for me too to get out of the sun and bugs. I think I'll use screening on the outside of the wire fencing to keep the skeeters from getting in and then add some branches with platforms all around for the. The younger cat has always tried to get outside and she has made on a few occasions. She always bolts for a good run which she does inside that we call "she's got the zoomies". Perhaps I'll figure out a way for her to run out there.

0:27 They'd love it better if it allowed them to look over the top of the fence ! You could dill some spy holes through the fence ;) Further improvements: 1. Complete the tunnels to make a complete circuit - this would give them an exercise journey - little point going to a dead end and then having to retrace one's steps. 2. Garden soil space for them to use as a toilet. Ideally 2 spaces - that you can dig over alternate months while the use the other one. They so much prefer going outside for that - although I knew one place where the cats would come in to pee ! Would it be too big a job to just put a mesh over the entire garden ?

Love it! Question - how do yoy clean the ramp or cat walk areas?

This is such an amazing catio. I have so much respect for you keeping your cats safe but still active and allowing them to feel the outdoors on their little bean toes!
