Build the perfect outdoor Cat Habitat for your home & cat

Explore our range of outdoor cat enclosures designed to suit different homes and cat personalities;

Full backyard enclosure

For cats who want the whole yard. A complete cat netting enclosure in your backyard lets your cat explore and enjoy the sun. Your cat can chase shadows without leaving the yard. They get fresh air and space, while you get peace of mind knowing, they’re safe and secure.

You can also fit out the space with elevated shelves, hammocks and cosy nooks for the full cat habitat experience.

Best suited for:

Side alley enclosures

Make that long, narrow space beside your house a safe outdoor area for your cat. Your cat can explore, sniff every corner, and feel part of everything happening at home. A clever way to give your cat outdoor freedom when yard space is limited.

We can also connect it to your home via a cat flap in the laundry door, so your cat can come and go safely whenever they like.

Best suited for:

Balcony enclosure

Balconies are prime cat real estate with sun, height, and endless things to watch. A balcony enclosure allows your cat to enjoy fresh air and warm sun. It also gives them great views of the outside world without any scary moments.

Your indoor cat gets a place to lounge, observe, and soak it all in while you relax knowing they’re safe.

Freestanding enclosure

A freestanding enclosure gives your cat a solid, secure outdoor space without needing existing fencing. It’s a great option if your yard layout is tricky or you want something purpose-built that stays put Full stop.

Your cat gets a safe place to stretch, explore, and relax outside, while you get a clean, contained setup that works with your home, not against it.

Best suited for:

Portable enclosure

If flexibility matters, this one’s for you. Portable cat enclosures are easy to move. They are perfect for renters or anyone who needs a temporary setup. Your cat can still enjoy a safe outdoor space with fresh air and sunshine.

You also have the freedom to move it, pack it up, or take it with you if your living situation changes.

Best suited for:

Cat fencing

Cat fencing is a great option for larger yards or spaces with trees and tall structures where full netting isn’t practical. It lets your cat roam and explore the yard they love, while smart fencing extensions stop them from climbing out.

Your yard stays open, your cat enjoys their freedom, and you gain peace of mind knowing they’re safe.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our cat enclosures and installation process

How long does it take to install a Cat Habitat?

Most habitats take 1–2 days to install, depending on the setup. We’ll lock in the timing upfront, and on the day you’ll know exactly when we’re arriving.

Can I customise my Cat Habitat?

Yes and we encourage it. Every cat’s dream home is different. We work with you to create a space that fits your needs. We consider your lifestyle, their lifestyle and how your cat uses the outdoors.

Can I relocate my Cat Habitat if I move?

Often, yes. Some setups are easier to move than others, so if moving is on the cards, tell us early. We’ll design with flexibility in mind and help make the transition as painless as possible for you and your cat.

Is a Cat Habitat suitable for my kitten?

Most habitats take 1–2 days to install, depending on the setup. We’ll lock in the timing upfront, and on the day you’ll know exactly when we’re arriving.

Can multiple cats use the same Habitat?

Yes! We love kittens. We usually recommend some supervision at first while they learn. We can also add paw-protect netting to the lower sections for extra safety where tiny claws like to explore.

Are Cat Habitats safe at night?

Yes. We build your habitat to be safe day and night. Your cat might be an early bird, a night owl, or just enjoy a midnight patrol. The space is safe no matter when they choose to use it.

Can I have a Cat Habitat if I’m renting?

Sure can. We create free-standing and portable cat enclosures. They are great for rentals or homes with body corporate rules. No permanent changes are needed.

How can I make my cat feel more at home in their Habitat?

Cats feel most at home when they can do what comes naturally: explore, climb, scratch, nap, and quietly observe everything around them. Adding features like outdoor cat scratchers, cat tunnels, ledges, or hammocks can help make the space feel familiar and engaging. You know your cat best. Tell us how they like to spend their time, and we’ll help design a habitat that fits their personality and keeps them happy outside.

How much does a Cat Habitat cost?

Every Cat Habitat is custom, so pricing depends on your space and what suits your cat. We use high-quality, cat-safe materials and focus on building something that lasts. Once we’ve had a chat and seen a few photos, we’ll give you a clear quote, no guesswork, no surprises.

Do you offer payment plans or flexible payment options?

We do. If spreading the cost helps, let us know and we’ll talk through the options.

What is your Cat Habitat warranty?

We are very confident in our product and work, that’s why we offer a 10-year warranty.*. Peace of mind should last beyond the installation.
