Best Catios for 2022

Larger than most other catios available, and feeling a lot more secure too, this run will give your cat plenty of freedom to explore while staying safe.

There are two heights available, so you can buy a taller version if there will be climbing equipment in there or if you’d want to join them. A detachable running skirt surrounds the entire catio, which will prevent any other animals digging under, or your cat squeezing under. You can also lock and unlock the door from the inside or out.

The high version has an optional stable door design, so you can give them some food or toys without risking the Great Escape. Additional doors can also be added to the catio in various places too.

It is easy to extend, whether when you buy it or a few years down the line when your feline family grows. You can also add a porch if you want an extra level of security when you are going in and out, or a partition to keep cats separated.

You can either leave it freestanding in your garden or leave one side open and attach it flush to your home so your cats can come and go via a window or door.

City buildings can be difficult to provide your cat with all they need. You don’t feel safe letting them onto the balcony as it is, and you don’t really want to allow them to go outside because it is a) difficult to get them out and b) busy roads and cats don’t mix.

So, a catio balcony enclosure is an ideal option. It is safer than netting and balcony fencing as it is completely closed in with a roof, and can’t be broken or chewed. You can relax knowing they are safe, and they can go out to watch the world go by whenever they want.

This enclosure has been designed to fit almost any balcony and can be extended to make the most of the space you have, and there will be plenty of room for you to join them. You can even buy an optional porch to give you an ‘airlock’ style entrance, for added security, and covers are available too.

The depth is narrow enough to fit on any balcony, and it can be extended between 1.84 and 3.68m to either fill your balcony or leave space some free. A removable run skirt can be used to fit it to your balcony, and to attach it to your home, just use suitable metal fittings.

This cat enclosure is incredibly large, making it ideal for bigger cats like Bengals. It has shelves all around the enclosure so your little tiger can explore new heights and even has a little ladder leading onto the shelves.

Multiple platforms allow your cat to look out and rest at a higher level. There’s plenty of space to run and jump, and since it can be attached to patio doors, the cat can simply come inside when they’re tired.

It’s the perfect way for your cat to play outdoors while staying safe, and for added convenience, the enclosure can be custom made to fit the dimensions of your chosen area.
