Backyard Catios – Frequently Asked Questions
How much yard space do I need?
Even a small 8x8 corner of a backyard becomes a great catio. Larger yards open up amazing layouts.
Can I keep using my yard normally?
Yes — most backyard catios are positioned along a fence line so the rest of your yard stays open.
Will my plants survive inside the catio?
We help select cat-safe plants and ground covers that thrive alongside your cats.
Can I add to it later?
Yes. We design with future expansion in mind — additional rooms, tunnels, or sections can be added.
How much does a backyard catio cost?
Backyard catios typically run $5,500–$22,000 depending on size and features.
Do they require maintenance?
Minimal. An annual stain and mesh inspection is usually all that's needed.
