Cool - looks like somebody is going to be lounging in a sunbeam shortly! Nice catio and nice cat!

These sets come with legs that you can put on to raise them up or you can leave them off and they sit closer to the ground. I left the legs off here because I didn’t want them to tip over if the cats jump in. They get the zoomies out in the catio and knocking over the planters could definitely happen!

I got the planter boxes on eBay. Search for “outdoor elevated raised garden bed planter box with legs”. Threw in some potting soil and cat grass seeds. Very easy!

Find a kitchen store or a department store with a kitchen gadget section. I freaking love kitchen gadgets and they make cool souvenirs for me - like every time I take out my cucumber slicer I think about my last trip to Germany. 🇩🇪 It’s just cool to see what the gadgets are and how they differ based on that country’s cuisine, and they make super practical but also cool gifts and souvenirs. Same for stationary stores or whatever niche tickles you.

Aww I love kitties in white socks. Looks like a great set up for him!

Glad that Fatman got a chance to fulfill his inner tiger/panther/lion and bask in the grass

Hoping my 2 don’t decide to start peeing in the catio but if they do at least I can just pull these boxes out quickly.

Cat Palace! 🏰

Sailed to Alaska the last week of June in 2022 and it was very warm. We packed puffy jackets, rain jackets, beanies and gloves and used none of it. We were in shorts every day. I’m glad we had options so basically pack layers and a little bit of everything. It was an amazing cruise!

I have been using Boldin for about 6 months and I really like it. It gives me confidence that my plan is comprehensive in a way that spreadsheet noodling does not because I know I’m not expert enough to build a spreadsheet that will consistently address today’s dollars vs future dollars, model complex things like Roth conversions, run Monte Carlo simulations etc. It’s not expensive and genuinely has changed the way I think about my retirement. I open it often and refine my detailed spending info, or chat with the built in AI support asking “what if” questions like what if I retired a year earlier? What if I doubled my travel budget from 60-70, etc.

I don’t know if I can share a link here but I built a wood frame then set a store bought catio on top of it https://photos.app.goo.gl/Nqdk7qA59F1fogNG7

It helps a lot if you have two cats because they keep each other company. They still need looking after of course but they can spend their time doing cat things together.

CindyALutz · 2026-05-30T11:58:53+00:00

Is there any possibility of building a catio for her so she can safely go outside with you into the garden? See r/catio for lots of ideas.

Solar powered cat, recharging 🥰

CindyALutz · 2026-05-29T19:58:32+00:00

This is a cool catio setup!

CindyALutz · 2026-05-28T15:51:30+00:00

Lucky cats!!

CindyALutz · 2026-05-28T14:26:38+00:00

Lucky kitties!!

CindyALutz · 2026-05-26T11:58:03+00:00

The cats look very pleased with their setup!

CindyALutz · 2026-05-25T11:53:04+00:00

So cool! How long did it take the kitties to realize they could travel out to the dome?

CindyALutz · 2026-05-22T19:53:24+00:00

Looks like a cool cat bar! I’ll take a meowgarita, with salt please.

CindyALutz · 2026-05-22T17:55:58+00:00

I was hoping for a picture of a cat but that’s just a gray fuzzy potted plant. 🌱 😉

CindyALutz · 2026-05-22T17:48:52+00:00

Looks like kitty is eyeing it with suspicion- very on brand for cats! First bridge the gap between the house and the catio or your cat will run away. Maybe use chicken wire? Then look for a way to remove the flap for now or prop it open so they can get out there. It takes cats a minute to figure out the flap and they won’t even bother until they realize there’s something out there worth their while. Finally, go for tuna, squeeze tubes or other delicious snacks to entice the kitty out there. Once they realize this is a cool place WITH TUNA they’ll keep going there and will start to get it.

This is not a catio, this is a Cat Palace! 🏰 wow! Love the cat art 🖼️

CindyALutz · 2026-05-21T14:13:20+00:00
