Woman Builds Catio Of Her Dreams (34 Pics)
We love transformations -- especially if its cat-related!
Imgur user, emilymartian, had decided to create the catio of her dreams and documented the process!
The catio, named 'Pussy Palace,' has come a long way since 2012! And like any palace, there are rules that must be obeyed!
Thankfully, they're all listed outside so you can read them before stepping into the kitty kingdom!

"2012 the original Pussy Palace, it was really nice for a while but the way the fence was set up created too much shade and little did I know that by putting the pallets directly on the ground I was opening up a free termite buffet right next to my house"

"The original size was approximately 9'x16', the top panels were just low enough to annoy all living crap out of me, plus there wasn't really anywhere for me to hang out."

"Nommers sunning his junk in the original catio, this was after the termite incident so it was a boring ugly place and needed to go."

"During the build he watched with curious eyes"

"Thanks to hurricane Florence I was able to tear down my super old dying fence for a new one. You can see the bones of the original catio"

"the new privacy fence is so much nicer - The kitties were so confused and excited the first time out but it's starting to look less like a pile of trash."

"I re did the original sign. Although I opted not to put the little kitty on it out of laziness....or I was just tired"
-

"I think the sign came out nicely considering my paint brush wasn't sufficient and made it a bit frustrating but I think it gave it a nice charm to not be so fancy"

"I had a bunch of leftover poles from a previous project. I tried to utilize them but wound up scrapping the idea (I'm no builder so I make mistakes), Nommers is giving it a test run. My buddy was a great help with this project."

"The new area is approximately 20'x20', my cost of materials for the basics wasn't too bad. Kennel fencing used $100, Deer netting $50, then just random crap like screws and some wood maybe another $50"

"Randy and Nommers beat each other up while I tore apart pallets and figured out what to build with them."

"a friend of mine gave me a plant, I put it out of kitty reach in case it's hazardous. We'll see if I don't accidentally kill it with my brown thumb."
