Verified Reviews for Omlet Catios - Large, Spacious Outdoor Cat Enclosures

Not cheap but the quality is excellent. The wire is heavy gauge and should be long-lasting. Delivery was very speedy and all was complete. Although the instructions supplied are reasonably clear, I found it of great benefit to view the excellent Omlet cat run construction video available on YouTube. This video is very helpful and should be given more prominence. Not intending to move the run at all I built a wooden base using value decking. I constructed exactly as per the instructions but then came to the conclusion that if the run is on a solid surface then the skirt around the perimeter serves no purpose at all. So I removed it and found the spare mesh very handy in constructing a tunnel to link the run to a cat flap a metre from the run. Once all the uprights were vertical and symmetric, it seemed a good idea to give rigidity by fixing them solidly to the base. I found I could do this by carefully inserting a screw through the tube clip at the base of each pole. I will try and upload some photos.

This was a must for our two new kittens, so many cats around our way now we didn't feel it safe to let them roam. They love it. Our older cats love it too as it allows them to go out when we would not normally let them.

Easy to assemble - hard part is probably ensuring you have a flat surface. Mine is on grass. Solid enough - I was a bit worried as I live at the top of a hill and we get strong winds but it will be fine - its sturdy enough plus its open so the wind will just go through it. Open - it seems very open and I think the cats feel a bit like they're in a goldfish bowl but that will be sorted when my climbers grow. Door is easy to open and shut. One negative is that the wire in the top part is wider than the bottom part - a small bird could easily fly through especially now while the babies are about. I noticed a wren nearly flew through one day while it was on my hanging basket. Time will tell how long they last but so far I'm pleased, despite having initial delivery problems.

Very pleased with our cat run. Beautifully made, very practical. Our cats just love it. Delivery was very quick. Absolutely great. Thank you Omlet.

Well Made cat Cage.

I purchased this cat run , 6 by 9 by 6, last year for my two house bound felines, felt bad they could not go outside. The instructions were straight forward and the assembly , while lengthy , was very very easy to understand and execute. My cats have since been noticeably happier if not intent on bringing frogs, bird parts and mice in the house for us. As a review, this is a solid product that is worth the investment and I will be purchasing more ( possible chicken equipment) from this company, I am very pleased with my purchase thus far.

The highest accolade I can give is 'why would you make your own'.

Just completed the erection of the pen in its temporary position. It is a really sturdy construction and hopefully will be simple to disassemble for moving. Also having put it together once it may be a bit quicker second time around. I found the YouTube "how to erect" film a real help and when in doubt it is easy to look again at the film. I purchased extra lengths to make it big enough and it proved easy to add the units. I agree that the clips are tough to fasten but warming them helped in the near to freezing temperature outside when building the pen, not the most ideal conditions for the build. All in all I am very pleased with my purchase.

I purchased this cat run end of November for my savannah kitten, he was longing to go out It is very sturdy , and blends in with the garden lots of room , my cat has his exercise wheel in there and ladders and shelves so plenty of room He’s getting used to more now and just loves looking around Only thing is , it’s extremely frustrating to put together , instructions are not great and it took us 4 hours to assemble with 2-3 people helping , who I might add are handy man , so that was frustrating, but when it was up we are so pleased with it and look forward to the summer where I can then enjoy watching my savannah all grown up in it , thankyou omlet for another great purchase from you

My indoor cat, who wants to be an outdoor one, loves her catio and runs straight to it in her harness. The first day it was up, all the local cats came to have a look and some tried to get in. It must be the talk of the local cat community as more cats have been in the garden than I have seen before. It will transform my life as previously I have had to be on high alert when in the garden with my cat in her harness which is supposed to be escape-proof but isn't quite. I can sit in it with her, when the weather is better, and relax. It blends well with the lawn and isn't an eyesore or too prominent. I have spent 10 years tryng to find a safe solution to my cat yearning and crying to go out, and now I have it!!! Thank you so much Omlet!
