cat sass catio models

Small above ground unit with direct access from an open window. Similar to the MINNIE WHISKERS but without the tunnel.  This model is anchored to the home, not the ground.

Those without the space for a larger unit or who just want a quaint catio off a window opening.

Smaller than a full catio with possibility of multiple levels and lengths.  Size depends on exterior wall of home.

• Exterior access panel with lock
• Slope roof with slope away from the house (choice of color)
• Waterproof, washable floor (choice of 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.

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.  

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.  

• 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 priced separately based on length and house placement needed

Catios attached directly to the home and accessible directly through a door or window.  These are considered a home addition with many additional requirements and added expense.  Rooflines, electrical, HVAC and many other factors play a role in what is allowed for attached models.

Those who want direct catio access from an open door or patio door.

Up to the municipality and what they will allow for a home addition.

• Full sized entry door w/lock
• Slope roof with slope away from the house (choice of color)
• 20" lower kneewall around bottom of catio (choice of color)
• Waterproof, washable floor (choice of style)
