Homemade Catio

This is my homemade catio. I used what’s called “deer fencing”. It doesn’t obstruct your view or the view of your cats. It was simple to do and cheap. I wrapped it around my deck and then… 🙂 once it was installed (used steal beams for reinforcement in between) I cut sections of additional deer fence and attached it to the top at a 45 degree angle all the way around the top and about 10″ in depth. It isn’t the most beautiful job as I am no expert, but it works and we are all happy! 🙂 …. Carol

P.S. from Michaelthere are quite a few pages on PoC about catios. I have always liked them and as Carol says they can be made cheaply. However, not everyone likes them.

Update: Here is Quentin, the guy with the dodgy leg who lives with Carol:

  2. I think a catio on your balcony is an excellent idea, Marc. I know you feel badly that they can’t go outside where you live.

  3. I found you on Facebook, Carol. I also noticed that the other Ruth had gotten there before me, because it said we have one mutual friend. Sure enough, the mutual friend was Ruth a.k.a. Kattaddorra!
