- I built a catio. Then later I had to partially disassemble and move it. Along with modifying it and use a farm jack to pull out some bushes. In this video I breakdown how I built it, how I moved it and provide tips and tricks for doing both. And tr!p provides the music.

Other ideas for the dirt part of your catio floor: herbs, low carpet thymes, any cat friendly ground cover that won't seed and invade your lovely lawn. Elfin thyme is very dense and soft and would cover well so that dirt wouldn't be tracked in to the house.
p.s. cats seem to Love laying on the faux grass and it would match your gorgeous lawn but I don't know about ease of cleaning etc. Awesome job. I am eager to see your new screened patio too.
Wrap screen material around catio to keep out bugs.
Looking back at this, I should have extended the wire frame to the base, with the initial build. Added strength. But now, it doesn't matter.
Great job,a lot of work done well and I know your cats are worth it ,would love to see them in it and your new porch ,your property is beautiful
There are 2 pictures at the end that have our cats in the catio. Thanks for watching.
Wow, you are Incredible!! Smart, inventive, persistent and plucky!!! 😊 I hope you are impressed with yourself and give yourself a nice treat. Lol. Wow.
GREAT VIDEO.
I'm so sorry that it was harder than you planned and hoped for it to be but Wow (I had to say wow again)! 😊
SPOILER ALERT! I think it was too tall because the back of the Catio was taller than than the front, sloping for rain. Just like the soffits. So pulling it out made the soffits bend upwards when removing it. To get it back under, this was the right move.
Isn't the 4x4 base overkill? Wind does not seem to be any threat with the screen and it being attached to the house.
The wind isn't a problem today, but down the line, new additions to the catio could catch wind. I'm just trying to build it right. It's the foundation. And in the end it's screwed into the foundation sideways so the structure doesn't move, at least as much as possible.
Also the ceiling is solid so could catch wind easily.
