COZIVVOVV Outdoor Cat House, 71" Catio Outdoor Cat Enclosure, Large Cat Patio Enclosure for Multiple Cats, Weatherproof Cattio for Cats Outside, Wood Frame, Easy Assembly for Backyard, Grey

My cats love this catio! I got this catio for my porch because we have more space lengthwise than heightwise and this is one of the few I found that was the right size. It was also one of the few that allowed for making an opening for a cat door. Our widow is only about 20" from the ground on the outside so I struggled to find a catio with the correct door dimensions. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. All the pieces were well marked and the precut screw holes were cut and finished very nicely. It even comes with a staple gun which you need for the mesh sides. If you want to allow access from a pet door, you just snip a hole in the wire mesh that corresponds to the pet door. Wire snips are very useful for this, but we were able to do it with kitchen shears without too much of a problem. The mesh is pretty pliable, so we were able to just fold over the sharp edges and it works great. Our cats love the shelves although I do wish they were a little wider. There is plenty of floor space for a litter box if you need one. It wasn't a concern for me, but it is important to note that this catio does not have a floor to it. If you are handy and able bodied, you can probably put this together yourself in about an hour and a half. It's definitely easier to put together with two people, but mostly just for the part where you're putting all the sides together. I would highly suggest using a drill because you do have to get the screws into the wooden frame. Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase!

I ordered this cat house after reading many reviews of different houses. It is not very sturdy looking—my son has not been available to help me assemble it yet—but I plan to reenforce the wooden sections with additional lumber. Overall, the price was right and I am pleased w my purchase.

This is great Catio and my cats absolutely love it. I painted the wire mesh black, it made a huge difference. The mesh went from standing out to being almost see-thru. The door latch is kinda cheap, so I’m going to upgrade it, but it’s not a big deal. I would rate this 5 stars if the mesh came black and it had a better latch.

I did not expect much and got even less. So rickety! You get what you pay for. I read the review about an animal busting out, but I was not worried because this was going to be for a recovering cat. However, I was not prepared for critters to break INTO the structure to get the cat food. It was basically useless. I was too distracted to send it back within return window. i’m writing this review now, 3 months later, because I am irate again as I just moved it around in the yard so that is not such an eyesore. I have no idea why I’m keeping this other than I’m having a hard time accepting that this was a 100% total waste of 200+ dollars. Flimsy. Worthless piece of yard trash.

I purchased this catio as an addition to an existing catio that I built four years ago. Our four adult cats had outgrown the original and we wanted to give them more room to stretch out and the novelty of something new to explore would help to stimulate them for this summer at least. The catio arrived ready to assemble and each piece was well made, the directions were easy to understand and the quality of the product was surprisingly superior to what I had expected. We did screen each panel as an aid to lessen the number of insects that could invade the catio. From start to finish, and that included stapling screen on every single piece, was about four hours and that included a lunch break and clean-up. We customized the end that is attached to the original catio so the cats could enter safely. As a side note, we have customized covers out of heavy gauge clear plastic for each catio to keep out heavy rain, allow them to still see out and allow light in and to help keep the chill out when the weather turns colder. Overall, I am pleased with everything about this catio, including the price.

We raise chickens and guinea fowl and have two good coops with runs. We have a need for growout pens for our chicks and keets and decided to give this one a try. For the price, we didn't have high hopes, so we were not overly disappointed when we opened the box and saw the low quality wood and hardware. The pen itself assembled easily and my wife (5' in her 50's), assembled by herself by the time I got home from work. We setup the pen in the yard for our keets that are too big for the brooder, but also too small to run free in the yard. Immediately we knew this wouldn't work. There is no bottom to this pen, so predators can easily tunnel under it. Also, the framing of the pen is very weak and a larger predator (dog or large raccoon) could easily push it over or move it around. Lastly, the stapling of the hardware cloth is not very good and we could push on the wires and get the staples to come out. Not to mention, the wood is extremely cheap and most likely untreated, so, sitting on the ground, the wood touching the soil will assuredly rot within months. Not to mention, cleaning this out is going to be a nightmare, with chicks and keets escaping with the door open to clean the cage. We decided to spend more money and build a hardware cloth bottom with legs - this allows it to sit up off the ground - making it less messy inside because the poop falls to the ground where we can rake it. Also, this gets the cage off the ground to prevent rotting and make it more predator proof. We also added l-brackets to secure the pen to the new base and added more to tighten up the framing overall. Next weekend we will probably apply a weather treatment to get more life out of the wood and may even add additional roofing and even some sidewalls for protection from the elements. So, this $200 pen quickly becomes $300-$400 and will still probably not hold up for more than a couple of years. This pen would probably work much better, as-is, if used under a covered patio or under a carport, etc., with a solid flooring (driveway, porch, slabe, etc). Otherwise, you'll going to have to add modifications that will cost time and money. I'm going to update how this thing ages and will revise this review in a few months. As of now, I only recommend it if your have a protected area to keep it, off the ground, or you are willing to modify it.
