Cute DIY catio that your cat will love (Gallery)

Catios are the purrfect way to let your kitty go outside without them wandering off and getting into trouble. 

Here's a little example of a small one to attach to your window that your cat would surely enjoy!

"Taking my Munchkin some getting used to, but a few minutes each day and she will be in heaven,"  Boysterload shared on imgur. 

Staples

catio2

"I got these at Ace Hardware for a few bucks.  Hold very well."

Stapling

catio3

"Stapling the cage down.  I moved the cage from side to side to reach the staple with a hammer."

Cutting

More cutting

catio5

"I left the wire long to wrap it around the back piece.  I laid the back piece on the floor to staple it in, then rotated it up into position."

Plexi

catio6

"I bought the 1/4" plexi glass at Ace Hardware.  $19.50 for the 15"x27" piece.  This is half inch bigger than the dimension of my window all the way around.  Drilled a few holes then used a jigsaw to cut the hole out for the door. I bought the door at Petsmart for $45.  It locks both ways."

Shelf

"I took some flat pieces of wood for more support than the 1/4" plexi against the window."

Kitty relaxation pad!

catio10

"We have a few bird feeders outside and also get plenty of squirrels and chipmunks.  Our little munchkin is not an outdoor cat so I wanted to get her outside a little."

This cute catio is about 6-7 feet off the ground. 10 feet away is their bird feeder and chipmunks gather below for the scraps. She is in heaven!

What a cute idea!
