Screened in Patio – Outdoor Space & Cat Paradise
This Austin homeowner wanted their cat to enjoy the outdoors safely. What they got was a screened-in patio that works for both human and feline family members. The custom catio features a clever pass-through from the house, so the cat can wander in and out at will. But here’s the smart part – it’s designed as a full outdoor room with a screen door, meaning the whole family can relax out there together.
No more worrying about Austin’s mosquitoes or busy streets. The screening keeps everyone protected while still allowing the Texas breeze to flow through. The pass-through bridge eliminates the need to constantly open doors, and the sturdy construction handles our unpredictable weather.
Year-Round Protected Outdoor Space
This screened-in patio proves that functional doesn’t have to mean boring. The house-to-patio connection creates seamless flow between indoor and outdoor spaces. Your cat gets outdoor time, and you get a bug-free spot to enjoy your morning coffee.
The design works year-round in Central Texas. Rain or shine, it’s a protected outdoor room that expands your living space while keeping pets safe and happy.
