What is a Cat Cubbie?

What is a Cat Cubbie?
A cat cubbie is an enclosed or semi-enclosed structure built into your catio.

It gives your cat a private, sheltered space to nap, observe, or escape stimulation.

Whether it’s elevated on a shelf or tucked in a cozy corner, each cubbie is designed to support your cat’s comfort and natural instincts.

Why Cats Love Cubbies

Cat cubbies tap into your cat’s natural instincts:

  • Den-like Security – Cats instinctively seek enclosed areas to feel safe from potential threats, even in their own backyard.
  • Stress Relief – Shy or easily overstimulated cats benefit from having a quiet retreat to decompress.
  • Weather Protection – On hot or windy days, cubbies provide essential shade and shelter.
  • Daily Lounging – Cats sleep 12–16 hours a day—give them a dedicated, comfortable spot to call their own.

Designed to Be Part of the Catio

Every Cat Topia cubby is handcrafted and fully integrated into the overall catio structure:

  • Built with the same durable materials as your catio
  • Seamless, stylish addition that blends into the design
  • Custom placement options: floor level for senior cats, elevated for climber
