tHE "MINNIE WHISKERS"
The MINNIE WHISKERS, named after one of my dad's cats from my childhood, is our 2-story, 3ft x 4ft, off the ground model that attaches to your home with our 12" (longer, if needed) tunnel. Set on 4x4 posts and anchored, it can be as high or low to the ground as you need to line up with your window or opening.
The MINNIE WHISKERS features a small, latched exterior door for additional access and cleaning, with the option to add your own lock, 2 stories of waterproof flooring, a center scratching post, trim color choice, and roof material (shingle or metal). She's the purrfect size for smaller spaces. It's a great option for those who want a smaller unit braced to the ground while not interfering with their home's siding, etc.
A sample of the MINNIE WHISKERS was built inside The FURRARI and can be seen at all of our appearances.

full-sized catio W/TUNNEL
STYLE
Free-standing catio separate from the house. These units are accessible by a tunnel that slants away from the home, approximately 5ft off the ground, and is attached to a window or opening on the house. Tunnels can extend around corners from any accessible window or similar opening. We call these a "full-sized" model because they are usable by people with their tall ceilings and full-sized entry door.
PERFECT FOR
Those who don't want to add the expense of building an attached unit directly to the house. When attached to the house, there are many more parameters and requirements as they are considered an actual addition to the home.
SIZES
This model starts at 6ft x 6ft with the max size being up to you and/or your municipality. Some are more strict than others and not all consider them the same. It can go by type of structure, lot size, other structures present, size, etc. Many consider them an "accessory building" or "portable building" as we build these on skids. We often see 100sq ft as the maximum size allowed but again, it varies and there are some that allow larger or smaller.
INCLUDED FEATURES
- Full sized entry door
- Slope roof with slope to the back (choice of color)
- 20" lower kneewall around bottom of catio (choice of color)
- Waterproof, washable floor (choice of style)
TUNNEL
Tunnel priced separately based on length and house placement needed

CATIO ACCESSORIES
