Verified Reviews for Outdoor Omlet Catio Cat Run Extensions

Our catio held up great during the hurricane! Lost the tarp and a couple of shelves came down, but the structure itself was just a little discombobulated. 👍👍

Ordered the 3 x 2 catio for my two indoor cats. They love it but I think they will like it more once they can’t access it themselves. Going to extend and attach to my house so they can go in and out as they please. I have a tuxedo and a bengal, both indoor cats but I can tell they want to go outdoors so this is a good idea especially with bengals as they have a lot of energy and want to play a lot and to stop your indoor cats from getting bored. Hopefully the fabric platforms come back in stock soon as this will make the catio so much better for my cats to run and jump around. Once I have attached and extended the catio to my house I will share more pics. Only downside I wished the height could be extended as my window is really high however I will do some DIY for this so my cats can access it through the window.

When our catio arrived, we had to adapt it a little to allow our cat to access it through our conservatory window, but when it was finished it is perfect for her, she loves being in there and now spends a lot of time outside 😺😺😺😺

My girls love their catio, the platforms are large and secure with lovely easy to remove pads, the bridge, I think, adds to the rigidity so would recommend getting one! Don’t bother with the pads on the steps and make sure you check the rope, mine doesn’t fit my structure but was all in the same section when purchasing!

There is no doubt that this is a great looking cat run designed with adult cats in mind. I have purchased it for my rescues which are mostly little kittens and transported it over 1500 miles overseas. The assembly was easy and completed in just a few hours. However kittens managed to escape through the roof that is too wide for little kittens. This was dangerous and they ended up on the road. Luckily none of them were hurt. Finally I solved the problem by buying and attaching sun mesh shade onto the roof of the cat run. Please consider re-designing the roof mesh holes to be the same width as the side panels to prevent kittens from escaping.

This is a great option for housing cats. But the fasteners are garbage! We used about 300 small tie wraps to secure it after building. The tie wraps made it escape proof and more sturdy. There is a video on how to build it. It was very helpful because the directions are not so great.

Yes found this to be a nice product took a little bit of sorting out but easy once I did. Hope to extend by another 2 sections in spring as our cats love it .

After spending much time researching the many different catios on the market, I am satisfied with my decision to go with this Omelet product. The 6 x 6 x 6 catio is a good size for the small patio slab outside the back door of my apartment. Assembly was not simple, and I had to refer to the video every step of the way. The printed instructions could be better. I found the great many small plastic clips involved to be problematic, as unclipping some to move them to a different position rendered them unusable. I will need to order more of those when I move. Disassembling this and then reassembling it after a move will not be easy. I think this catio would be ideal on a nice lawn in the backyard of a house. But it's good, on the less expensive end, and I recommend it.

I set it up by myself using the video online and the manual, laying it out as per the video I’m only 5’4” so I used a ladder to do the roof. It took me about 6hrs to build but then I am a slow and methodical 53yo woman. The whole enclosure is well made and the clips tough, it took a little while to get the hang of the best way for handling the various clips so be patient with yourself. I found a flat screwdriver very handy for prying apart the pole clips if I’d placed them incorrectly. I erected this freestanding in my backyard away from the house and try as I might for a week or two my cat did not like it even when I sat in there with her and cat treats and toys and shade cloth so she did not feel too exposed. I was devastated however after much rethinking the structure and my rental property I took the enclosure apart and reconstructed the pieces to make a solid, escapefree run on the side of my rental house. I didn’t drill into the dwelling and I didn’t cut bend or otherwise change any of the mesh. All I added was a platform, a bridge made from garden edging and a cat hammock. Now my cat can come and go when she wants she happily pops in and out through my bathroom window and I still have a complete 2x2x2 run if I ever need to move.

This has turned out to be great solving the issue of letting the kittens be outdoors but also keeping them safe if I cannot watch them. Was fairly easy to set up. Needed two people for sure. Besides the plastic snaps that hold it together I did wire tie it in several areas to be sure. For some reason the wire caging is small on the bottom - but larger on top. For kittens is would be better to have it all small since they can stick their head through it. Maybe provide a option if you want order all the small caging? I continue to add things inside for them to climb and keep busy. I would recommend it for sure and it looks nice as well.
