6. The Patio Catio Lounge

If you have a backyard patio, you can turn it into a stylish catio lounge where you and your cat can enjoy the outdoors together. This type of catio is built by installing an enclosure around the perimeter of the patio, effectively converting it into an indoor outdoor patio room.

Use wooden frames or metal supports to build a sturdy enclosure. Cover the sides with metal wire or pet safe mesh. Add comfortable seating for humans and soft platforms for cats. Many cat owners add ceiling shelves, large climbing trees, and step ladders for their pets.
