Description

You loved it last year, so we’re bringing it back! Austin’s 2nd Catio Tour will showcase outdoor cat enclosures!

Event Details

COST: Free! Suggested donation of $10 per person.

Hosted by Travis Audubon, Austin’s premier wildlife conservation organization, the self-guided tour seeks to inspire cat owners to build or buy their own outdoor cat enclosure so their feline friends can enjoy safe outdoor time. The tour features backyard enclosures from DIY to designer. A cat patio or Catio lets frisky felines exercise, play out hunting instincts and snooze in the sun safely. They can’t kill birds, and cats are protected from dogs, cars, coyotes, and other outdoor hazards. The screened spaces can be elaborate, freestanding structures outfitted with sunbathing perches, ramps and spiral staircases or a series of inexpensive wood and wire cubes.

The goal of this unique event is to spread the word about the many benefits of catios, and to inspire cat guardians to build one of their own or have one built! By providing a safe and secure environment, catios protect birds and provide cat guardians with peace of mind. Maps will be provided prior to event. This is a self-guided tour, and you can visit as many or as few of the catios as you'd like. The catios can be visited from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM on Saturday, January 12, 2019.

Deadline to register is January 11, 2019 at 12 PM CST.
