Catio Tour 2024
The 12th annual Catio Tour on Saturday, September 7 is self-guided and all in-person, with stops from SE Portland to Vancouver, WA. You’ll see a variety of catios (outdoor cat enclosures), talk with the people who built them, and meet the cats who enjoy them (feline attitude permitting)!
Generous sponsors include Shur-way Building Centers, Catio Crafsman, Catio Spaces, Mr. Plywood, Catnets, Custom Comet, CDE Animal Cages, meowsafe, Cat & Dog Hospital, and Mr. Peanut’s
Hosted by the Feral Cat Coalition of Oregon and Bird Alliance of Oregon, the self-guided tour seeks to inspire cat owners to build or buy their own outdoor cat enclosure so their felines can enjoy safe outdoor time. Backyard enclosures from frugal to fabulous keep cats safe from outdoor hazards while also protecting wildlife from cat predation.
Funds from the Catio Tour support the Bird Alliance of Oregon’s and Feral Cat Coalition of Oregon’s “Cats Safe at Home”™ campaign, which seeks to reduce free-roaming cats in the Portland metropolitan area with solutions that are good for cats and wildlife. Both organizations believe every cat deserves a safe home where it is loved, cared for and kept free from hazards. For more information about the campaign, visit CatsSafeAtHome.org.
COST: $15
