Combination Style Catios – Flexible Outdoor Cat Enclosures
Serving Essex, Kent & London
A Perfect Balance of Shelter, Light & Ventilation
Our Combination Style Catios are designed for cat owners who want the best of both worlds — a partially covered roof combined with mesh roofing to create a versatile, comfortable, and visually balanced outdoor cat enclosure. This design allows you to carefully control shade, airflow, and weather protection while maintaining an open, natural feel within your garden.
Each Combination Catio is bespoke, designed around your outdoor space, garden layout, and your cats’ behaviour. By combining polycarbonate roofing with mesh panels, we create catios that provide shelter from rain and direct sunlight while still allowing fresh air, natural light, and outdoor sights and sounds.
Bespoke Design Tailored to Your Space & Cats
As with all our catios, every Combination Style Catio is custom-built using high-quality, pre-treated timber and solid construction methods. The split roof design can be adjusted to suit your needs, whether you’d like:
-
A larger covered section for all-weather lounging
-
A meshed section for climbing, sunbathing, and airflow
-
A layout that works with the position of your home, garden, or existing structures
This flexibility makes combination catios ideal for gardens with mixed sun and shade, or for cats who enjoy both sheltered and open outdoor areas.
Roofing Options & Finishes
Our Combination Catios use durable polycarbonate roofing for the covered section, with the option of clear or tinted panels depending on your preference. Tinted roofing can help reduce heat and glare during the summer months, while mesh roofing allows maximum ventilation and visibility.
Your catio can be:
-
Finished in natural pre-treated timber
-
Professionally painted in a colour of your choice using protective exterior coatings
-
Designed to complement standard, pergola-style, lean-to, or freestanding catios
Optional additions such as guttering and water management systems can also be incorporated where a covered roof section is included.
Interior Layout & Catio Play Equipment
A combination roof design works particularly well with custom interior layouts, allowing us to position platforms, shelving, ramps, dens, and walkways beneath covered areas while keeping climbing and exploration zones open and airy.
You can choose to design the interior yourself or have us create bespoke catio play equipment tailored to your cats’ size, energy levels, and natural behaviours.
