Many seniors love to have their furry, faithful companion…cats! Oh, how I love my cats. I myself have seven cats and they are my babies. However I live on a little farm. If I lived in a neighborhood, I would definitely add a Catio to my home. A “Catio” is an outdoor enclosed patio for cats while safely enriching their lives in the outdoor life. Catios come in a variety of styles such as large outdoor enclosures with trees or small window glass enclosures.
Tess Aiello, a fellow broker from our Senior Nation team, had a senior gentleman ask her how he could create a Catio off of a condo we were selling. It was very easy to do! Happy owners and happy cats. This is a great article by Meaghan McGlynn about Catios.
