The Deckside Cat Express
This custom 74” wide x 36” deep x 7 ft tall catio is a sleek, space-efficient build that transforms a section of the deck into a safe outdoor escape, finished in a rich chestnut stain that adds warmth and character. Constructed with pressure-treated lumber and enclosed in durable 1x1 black PVC-coated wire, it features a cozy interior with a couple of shelves and ramps for lounging and light climbing, plus a convenient human access door. The standout feature is the 15-foot-long tunnel running along the deck—low-profile and fully enclosed with a classic ribbed steel roof—giving cats a protected pathway to explore, stretch their legs, and enjoy the outdoors from multiple vantage points. It’s a streamlined, functional setup that feels like a private little transit system built just for curious cats.
