HOW TO WATCH VIDEOS:

Each video has 2 parts: an overview of the catio and then a “behind the scenes” interview with homeowner(s).
To PLAY a video, click or tap on the white triangle button in the center of the video area.
To watch the video in full screen, click or tap the open box on the bottom right of the video screen. If you’re watching on a phone hold the phone horizontally.
To PAUSE a video, tap the space bar on a laptop or tap the screen on a phone. Tap it again to resume playing the video.
- The videos all start with a similar Title Screen. IF YOU PAUSE A VIDEO you may see thumbnails for videos other than the one you started. You will likely have left the Catio Tour and will be watching other videos on YouTube.
- If you find yourself in YouTube and want to return to the catio details, use your browser’s “back button” OR return to the link in your email.
The BACK TO ALL CATIOS link at the top of the page will bring you back to this page, or use the NEXT CATIO link to see another.

HOW TO NAVIGATE AROUND 360 DEGREE IMAGES:

If you’re using a phone or tablet, touch your finger to the image onscreen and move it around to see more of the catio. If you’re using a mouse with your device, click and drag on the image.
To ZOOM IN or OUT: if you’re using a cellphone, tablet or trackpad, touch your thumb and forefinger to the image, and pinch your fingers open or closed. If you’re using a mouse with your device, use the mouse spin wheel.
