8. The Multi Level Catio Tower

Cats naturally love vertical exploration, making a multi level catio tower a fantastic option. These catio designs feature stacked platforms, ladders, ramps, and tunnels arranged in a tall structure rather than a wide one. This is perfect for small yards or side yards with limited ground space.

A catio tower can be built against an exterior wall using wood or metal framing. The enclosure can include multiple perches where cats can lounge at different heights. You can incorporate climbing beams, hammock shelves, and scratching posts built into the design.

The key advantage of a multi level tower is that it offers exercise and stimulation. It encourages cats to climb, jump, and explore while staying secure. This is especially great for energetic or young cats who thrive on activity.
