materials list
■grid panels
i bougut Grid Panels in DIY store in Japan "CAINZ"
30*60cm(12*24in) : 200JPY(1.9USD)
30*90cm(12*35in) : 350JPY(3.3USD)
but it seems grid panel is much more expensive in USA.
amazonUSA: www.amazon.com/s?k=grid+wall+...
THE HOME DEPOT: www.homedepot.com/s/Grid%2520...
Walmart: www.walmart.com/search/?page=...
LOWE's: i can't find it.
MENARDS:i can't find it.
we can find grid panel in 1 doller shop in japan "DAISO"
but they have only White color and Brown coler.not Black.
there are 21 DAISO shop in USA: www.mallsinamerica.com/daiso-...
so if you live near there,pls call them in stock or not.
DAISO sell grid panel as "Wire net" www.daisojapan.com/p-35987-wi...
grid panel made by steel and polyethylene coating.
so its strong for rain.
if it's not coating,not good for outside.
■Floor (wooden)
IKEA RUNNEN www.ikea.com/us/en/p/runnen-d...
but it's not exactly the same design.
i bought below.
www.ikea.com/jp/ja/p/runnen-f...
■Floor (green)
i bought 1 doller shop in japan.
IKEA also has same size. www.ikea.com/us/en/p/runnen-d...
i choose grass which has 2 color.
it has not only green.
main color is green. but there is also yellow brown color's grass.
it looks much more real.so i choose it.
■ZIP ties
www.amazon.com/Strength-Black...
ZIP ties must be FOR OUTSIDE.
Otherwise it's easy to be decay for few month.
■Cost
Total 　 256USD(27,000JPY)
・Grid panels 153USD(16,450JPY)
・Grass 15USD(1,600JPY)

■Q&A
Q1: why dont you use Cat Netting?
A : i cant put net here.this is our main Balcony and we used to hang out laundry and blanket
like this.www.google.com/search?q=%E5%B...
Q2:why dont you let cats out ?
A : there are a lot of cars near my house.and 2 times i saw dead stray cats that was hit by car.so i dont want cats go out.
Q3:how about to put a bird feeder?
A :if it's located on backyard i want to do that.
but i can not make it coz this place i hang laundry.
birds used to make clothes dirty....
this is one of the reason i make catio in balcony.
i hire cats as security!!
they work very hard and no bird coming here now.
Q4 : tails
Koyu♀age13 　long tail
Mugi♂age8(black white) Kinked Tail :when i find him was 2 month on the road ,its already Kinked Tail.at that time doctor didnt say anything so he was born Kinked Tail.its not uncommon in japan.you can find stray cat has Kinked Tail a lot.
Hama♀age5(small) Bobtail
Q5:how to clean it?What will you do to access inside when there is an "accident"?
A : i connect just zip ties so if something happen,i can just cut it.i prepare nippers next door to cut it.
Q5:why your wooden room floor stained with white paint?
A : no worries! i didnt care about my room floor dirty.coz i was planning to make floor new and did it.
this video i change floor new.

Of the hundreds of DIY videos on widely varying subjects that I have watched, this is by far one of the best, if not THE best! Fantastic job. Your cats are fortunate to have you as their human. "When a man loves cats, I am his friend and comrade, without further introduction." ~ Mark Twain

[@DIYCATVILLAGE]

It's an honour.thank you.im happy to be your friend and comrade.

[@theosantana7750]

Exactly... creative guy

[@Nikybeez]

I love the quote!

[@Hollis_has_questions]

When a cat does not like someone, it’s a good bet that I should be wary of that person.

[@maryamyawar8027]

kzbin.infoOXo6dwh00vo?feature=share

[@mishti06]

In a multi cat household it is SUPER important to have more than one entry and exit points for places as cats will exert territorial dominance and others may feel trapped in a corridor that only has one exit. This can cause a lot if potential fights and stress. I would recommend looping the single corridor up to a second level as the top level seems to only have one entry point. Just a suggestion as I've dealt with this before. Great video😊

[@williamleath8370]

I like people who go out of there way to make their pets happy.

[@meowcatcat3472]

Just like when you linger at the movie theater after the credits roll, you get a special treat at the end!

[@kodanuki1498]

すてき‼️ これで猫ちゃん達、お外にの風に当たったり、おひさまを浴びてお昼寝もできますね❣️ 家飼いの猫ちゃんに何よりのプレゼントですね。😸

[@DIYCATVILLAGE]

ありがとうございます。最近寒くなってきたので、日中は日光浴を楽しんでます。

[@user-tb9fi8gc6m]

いいなあ。うちにも欲しい😁素敵☺️💖

[@ayuko6646]

飼い主さんの愛しか感じられない☺️

[@DIYCATVILLAGE]

ありがとうございます！

[@Cataracta]

Ah EXACTLY what i was looking for a terminator proofed Catio😍

[@vanitankonatanko32]

すごーーい！！ コレって面倒くさいけれど猫ちゃん通路全部に網戸を全面に取り付ければ、開け放したままでも虫の侵入防げそう！ 猫ちゃん幸せ者ですねー😊 発想が素晴らしい！

[@nananana2626]

ねほ？

[@user-sr7qc7iq6e]

おすすめに出てきました🐾 素晴らしいDIYです🙌🏻 ねこちゃん達、幸せそうですね☺️♥️

[@user-in8lh9df2d]

犬もいいけど猫も可愛いですね♪

[@mariap4828]

Wow! They look so happy in there. Sun, shade, space. Cat TV. It’s not too fancy. It’s got everything they need and want though. Great job!

[@rairairice777]

うちの猫家猫なのに外に出ようとするのでこれいいかもしれません！！ 財布と相談して頑張ってみようと思います！

[@Comstock73]

LOL...so glad I stuck around all the way to the end.

[@Hollis_has_questions]

Whenever I see a cool catio, I want to be the cat that gets to enjoy it. Well done, fellow cat person!

[@normanrowe2831]

Beautiful job. Be careful of those “outside zip ties”. I used them on my cyclone fence to hold up screening material. The hot sun eventually made them very brittle and caused them to snap. I would be checking those often.

[@DIYCATVILLAGE]

thank you so much.i will reapply BRIWAX every 6 month,at that time i will make sure its ok or not.

[@nellgrill3845]

Wire use? Better?

[@kristinebailey2804]

I wouldn't use them at all. Hardware stores and farm supply stores sell easy bend aluminum clips for a permanent and safe joint. Usually marketed as rabbit cage clips.

[@Vmurph]

@@DIYCATVILLAGE Ditto what Kristine said! Metal clips are safe, easy to clamp (just need pliers) and indestructible. Btw, that long dead-end is a fight waiting to happen. Jackson Galaxy recommends always having an escape route in a narrow area or dead-end. I would add a second level to the narrow walkway, opening on the bottom at each end, to the lower one. That way no one can get cornered. They’d just jump up and go back in the other direction.

[@DIYCATVILLAGE]

@@Vmurph thank you for watching! dead end was ok for 3 cats.they dont fight each other so much. but yes you are right now is not good coz there is 1 new kitten and it happen.so i will make 2nd floor on long way.so there is not dead end. i will change another place of catio. hope i can upload soon.

[@hittyk738]

凄い！！ 恐る恐るネコちゃん達が入っていく姿に感動しました♡！ 寛いで欲しい所でしっかり寛いでくれてる姿は作った方には最高にたまらない光景ですね🥺

[@DIYCATVILLAGE]

ありがとうございます。 しっかり台本を読み聞かせたかいがありました。

[@chatkins100]

Seeing those kittys first go outside was like watching my kids take their first steps. *proud*

[@MzClementine]

Oh my gosh that contour gauge. I'm always looking for tools my husband doesn't have. So cool so so cool

[@danalove6868]

Such a good cat dad I wish my husband would do this for my cats , I don’t let cats out to roam free I wouldn’t want anything to happen to them a few of them actually likes going on car rides and a few likes leashes are cats were all feral babies we rescued we also rescued a lot of cats and kittens and got all of them homes.

[@DIYCATVILLAGE]

wow its very nice!in my place there are few stray cats.but just 1 or 2 year i cant find them and new face coming,living outside is very hard.so i don want them go out.2 of my cat was also stray cat.it seems they miss sunbathing.so i made this.now they looks really happy.i want save stray cats too.

[@Dee8Bee]

@Dana Gomez don’t wait for him. You do it. I bet if you get some stuff, start measuring and all. He will come and see what youre up to. Bet he starts correcting you and eventually say; move , I’ll do it. 😂

[@grahamefreestone5309]

You'll probably find that if you start doing it his lazy ass might help you. 😂😂

[@danalove6868]

Dee8Bee thanks but I doubt it he complains about my cats to much he is not mean to them just cares what is brother think he says there fur gets on his clothes and it’s embarrassing and the litter box too now I see why sometimes people choose there pets over there spouses and my daughter tells her dad that her cats are her babies there her kids and he doesn’t like it she can move out she is 18 but very responsible graduated high school at 16 and got her first job recently and became a manager were she works within 2 months working there so I want her to be able to save for her car and other essential items she needs before she moves and plus she helps pay bills and also helps clean she is a good girl

[@danalove6868]

DIY CAT VILLAGE you can help save stray and if you have a big property you could build a big catio and let them live there and maybe build other people catios and get paid and use the money for food and shelter for other stray cats

[@chinasi07777]

Lol @ terminator doll.. AWESOME ending!!!!

[@jws53141]

❤ verry nice and the cats seem verry happy whit it . Thanks for the film and the idea. Greetings from Rotterdam Holland

[@lyndahamme3572]

Think kitties want another big observation deck on the other end. Nice.

[@user-ji2bm7ie2y]

ステキなテラスになっています😊✨ これは、猫ちゃん達大喜びですね🥰❤️

[@judibrake6508]

I have a 4x4 catio made out of the same material for the walls. This makes me want to make a new fancier one!!! Well done. They are going to be so happy to go outside in a safe way.

[@DIYCATVILLAGE]

wow thank you.im very happy to hear about that.i want to see your cat's new fancier catio!

[@2centz143]

[@normamead4511]

I have cats as well and paid a great deal of money to a carpenter for a balcony for my cats. I was saving money 💰 for a second one but you just gave me a new way to make a second one for myself. Thank you 👍🐶😊😺❤️

[@vthings001]

Seems like that one Japanese bobtail cat is a bit of a coward like our old one was. I recognize that "OH No! Something new!" meow of panic.

[@denisekrivach2748]

Lol so funny at the end! 😅😂🤣
