Upgrade Outdoor Cat Enclosure, Outdoor Cat Playpen Enclosed, Portable Catio Cat Tent with Tunnel for Indoor Cats Small Animals and Puppy

This has been a great purchase. We have 2 cats, one is a recent rescue. We like to get our cats outside with us, but our wiley new friend isn't quite ready for full freedom. He enjoys walks on a leash, but I was finding the garden lonely without him! This has been a perfect portable way to toat him around with me outside while I work in the yard.He gave it his all to escape his first time, and he's a surprisingly muscular little fella, so it was an honest attempt. I let him have at it for about 5 - 10 minutes, because he was going to anyway so it needed to be tested, and to his dismay and my delight he was unable to tear through the screens. That being said, I did stop him after about 5 - 10 minutes and we're always together when he's in it just in case.The tunnel is also a win!! I brought the whole unit inside without breaking it down, and found our other cat liked to just hang out in the tent and in the tunnel. Since then we leave the tunnel out for them to enjoy. Our rescue is only about 1 and he can get a bit frisky, so it helps to have a see through tunnel so I know who's in there and to herd him away if big bro is relaxing.I read another buyer had a problem with the bottom of it getting torn up, so I always put a small tarp beneath it, and a mat inside. No tearing so far, we've had it a couple months.Pros:- Easy to set up- Lightweight- Stands up to some abuse- Gets kitties outside!- Tunnel- Fits back in original bagIf I was being nitpicky:- I don't care for the color, would love if there was a neutral option- There's one or 2 joints where the plastic rods don't quite fit, still doable, but you have to muscle it

The media could not be loaded. We bought this inclosure so he could be outside with us without running away. He loves it!

Our skittish cat was interested in going into the enclosure right away to start exploring, going in one side and out the other, bringing a couple of her toys in there, etc. She hasn’t spent much time in the tunnel though. She’s a large breed cat and perhaps just isn’t comfortable with it. We tried to put her outside in just the playpen without the coil and that didn’t go well. She was too afraid being outdoors and freaked out. She kept pressing her head on all the mesh areas trying to get out and quickly broke through one of the removable mesh covers on the end, where the coil would be zipped onto the playpen. Luckily I was able to grab her before she had a chance to run anywhere. The zipper was slightly defective to begin with and wouldn’t allow the round mesh cover to securely attach to the playpen so it was a vulnerable spot and she found it. But she still enjoyed sitting or playing in it indoors so we will continue to use it more as a “toy” of sorts for her. So bottom line not indestructible quality but still of interest to the cat so we will keep it around.

This outdoor cat enclosure is exactly what we needed! We have several cats and one of them has a contagious virus so she needs to be quarantined away from the other cats. Until we got her this cat playpen, she was stuck in the same room 24/7; poor baby! But now she gets to go outside! When we come to get her, she dances on her back legs, waiting to be picked up. She will spend hours outside, safely secured in this cat playpen. She loves to sit in the tunnel and feel the grass under her feet; she also gets 360° prime bug viewing while sitting in the tunnel! She will come into the main compartment of the playpen for water or to play with toys, but when we unzip it to take her back to her room, she runs back into the mesh tunnel to ‘hide’!This outdoor cat enclosure has definitely improved her quality of life. Thank goodness it is summer time, but if she has another breakout in the winter, I think the enclosure is compact enough that we can try to set it up in the house to limit her exposure to the other cats, still allowing her to get out of her room.As far as the quality of the product, I am very happy! Although assembly is self-explanatory, the instructions are completed with pictures. My set even came with two extra sets of poles, although I cannot imagine needing to use them as the poles seem sturdy and well made. The enclosure has two pockets to keep items like a walking harness or treats (to draw her out of the tunnel when it is time to go in!). The main enclosure has velcro tabs to secure the door open if we should ever choose to use it as a playpen for all of the cats to play in while in the house over the winter.We have had this enclosure sitting outside for a little over a month now, and it still looks like new. It has even blown over in a storm and is still fine, but now we either stake it down with the included stakes or pull it into the garage when it is windy. And it is easy to clean (at least in the summer) since we can just spray it down with the hose. I think that this cat enclosure is worth every penny!

This little portable catio was very easy to setup and feels very durable

A great cat enclosure to allow your cat some outdoor time without them being at risk of getting lost. Huge amount of space for the cat’s comfort. My cat loves it.

I foster kittens, and currently I have one 12-week-old, and three 6-week-olds, and let me tell you - the older kitten can be way too rough with the babies, so I need to keep them separated - however they are all at an age that they need space to be able to run around and play. When it's time for everyone to be out playing - I will have them take turns in this with the tunnel attached - either putting the single 12-week-old in for a while, and then switching to the young three. They can interact with each other through the mesh, but no one can be bitten or scratched.
