BACK TO ALL CATIOS

2023 Online Tour: Kit-Tea Party Cottage

Creative Repurposing / Reclaimed Materials / Two story cottage with protected patio, too!

Sherman and Wasco probably should start paying rent for this absolutely adorable catio that has been repurposed from a tea cottage that Carol and her husband built for their grandchildren who have since outgrown it. Filled with a wonderful mix of country charm and cat friendly enrichment, the space offers protection for their cats from a large amount of rural wildlife and roaming cats, as well as keeps the critters that live on their farm safe from feline predation.

The Catio Tour is part of the Cats Safe at Home campaign, which seeks to reduce the number of cats living outdoors in the Portland metropolitan area in a humane and environmentally responsible manner. We believe that every cat deserves a safe home where they are loved, cared for, and kept free from hazards. The Catio Tour was created to offer inspiration for those looking for ways for their cats to have safe outdoor time. We hope you enjoy this year’s Catio Tour!
