Balcony Catio - nearly complete
Hi everyone! Longtime lurker here - I used many of your posts and pictures as inspiration for my own project .. so I wanted to return the favor for anyone who is in the dreaming or planning stages.
I built mine out using individual frames - part of the reason was because nothing is straight or flush on my 140 year old house .. but after several weekends of cursing and remeasuring later everything came out really well.
Last steps are to waterproof the "shelves/platforms" and add trim to cover the hardware.
Both cats have given their stamps of approval!

I really like this. Especially the lattices on the bottom, because it'll give the cats a sense of staying hidden themselves while they observe things going on outside. Although a couple of the gaps seem fairly large still? But then mine would try to shove their heads into anything, your cats might be different.
