ABOUT US
Starting out building sheds, I discovered an exciting opportunity to create custom cat enclosures where cats can safely explore the outdoors. That’s how CatioGuys was born. With a strong foundation in craftsmanship and a deep love for cats, we are dedicated to delivering quality and precision in every build.
Our enclosures are crafted using a durable timber and galvanized mesh frame system, ensuring your cat is not only safe but also happy. Every catio is designed to be weather-resistant, long-lasting and adapted to suit your space and your cat’s unique personality.
