A lot of people ask me about my cat enclosure (click HERE) and tell me that they want to build one themselves. But I never really get to see if they do actually go to the length of building one. So far I only had one person send me pictures of their own enclosure (click HERE to see the post). I love it.

So when Mark contacted me with some questions, I asked him if he would send me photos when he is done. And of boy, did he send me photos. Lots of photos and I’m super excited to show them to you. His cats are a lucky little furry crowd, I tell ya.

Take a look:

And if you can’t or don’t want to build a cat structure yourself then you could consider buying one of these HERE, which aren’t all that expensive.

 


 

 

And here are some of the details on how he built it:

Beyond cool isn’t it? I love love love the cat house on the old chimney!
Next he said is a lot of landscaping around the structures.

I’m so thankful that he sent me the photos.

Talk to you on Friday my friends.

    I like it, but what’s wrong with the cats? Why are they not allowed in the yard?

    • Julia says

      June 3, 2015 at 7:02 pm

      The enclosure is to keep them safe from running outside of the yard. I think it is awesome. There are so many dangers outside of the yard, including neighbors who don’t like kitties. It’s a great idea right?

    Love these cat enclosures! What a wonderful way to keep inside kitties safe, while letting them get a taste of the great outdoors! Thank you, Julia, for inspiring us…I hope to build my own some day!

    What a fun outside space for cats. This group looks really happy to be able to stroll and enjoy the outside space safely. Thank you for sharing.

    Thanks for all the nice comments! Julia really inspired me to make this and I’m no carpenter. It’s really one of my first wood projects ever. But it just jad to be as good as hers. She was very helpful with my questions. One hear later now i am going to add to it ao stay tuned. My walkway has grown with vines and offers good shade now. Its been a hot summer but my kitties are outside moat of the time. Even in the winter they are out lots. May do some upgrades and get a nice finish on the wood as Julia has done. She has been great and love her site and blog. Thanks! Mark

      And if you don’t mind then keep us up to date about your enclosure. It’s so so amazing
