Your cat will be excited to hide and pretend to hunt all around it. Thanks to the white fabric, cats are able to see shadows through fabric, making them even more wild. When they’re done, the tunnel folds flat and is held with Velcro tabs on two sides. Anyway – if you’ve ever tried something like this out, or if you’ve ever considered giving it a go, let me know your thoughts in the comments! Maybe if more of us started trying them, more durable and higher quality ones would begin popping up because of the demand, and we could all have what are essentially temporary, portable catios for taking our indoor cats outside to enjoy the fresh air and sun regularly. Whichever tunnel you choose, follow the manufacturers suggested cleaning instructions. Many tunnels have metal frames that can pierce fabric seams if washed in a machine. They could also be prone to rust if exposed to chemical cleaners or not properly dried.
Cut the tubing at the correct length to fit your wire mesh and used the cable tie wraps to secure the tubing to the bottom of the tunnels at about 12” intervals. 3. Joining the corners of the tunnels You’re almost done! Secure the base of the cat tunnel to the ground with tent pegs. We spaced them about 12″ to 15″ apart. These are removable so it can be lifted when you decide to mow the lawn. Who let the cats out!? We hope this post has inspired you to make your own outdoor cat tunnels! Work with the space you have available, the cats don’t care about the length of the tunnel. As long as they provide some connection to the outdoors for new territories to be conquered, no matter how small, your cat will feel like the Jaguar from the Pantanal.A cat tunnel is a great way to encourage your cat to play. They promote exercise and give your cat a dedicated area to not only play but sometimes sleep, hide and rest too.
Opt for strong, rust-resistant metals for the frame, and high-quality, tear-resistant mesh or netting. The materials should withstand weather changes and resist potential damage from your cat’s claws. If you’re looking for a outdoor cat tunnel walkway to link up an enclosure, then you have 2 options to choose from when it comes to buying one: There are some minor downsides. This tunnel diameter is on the small side, at 9.5 inches, so if you have a Maine coon, ragdoll or other large cat breed, this tunnel might be a little too snug.It is also only available in one color combination: tan and cranberry.
Easy open zipper access windows let you easily place your kitty inside the tent, remove them, or just reach in for quick pet or some back scratches!
Of course, it’s also really fun to sit out in your garden and watch your cat jump about trying to chase butterflies too! 🙂 Outdoor Cat Tunnels For Sale But enough of the tents – time for an outdoor cat tunnel! This one by Kittywalk appears to be higher quality than a lot of the tents I’ve showcased. It seems people use it as a standalone playpen, and as catios that connect to the housepaired up with a simple dog door. Looks a bit easier, slightly more permanent, and definitely more durable than the Aussie Naturals Cat Enclosure Tent + Tunnel combo from #1. I think if I were to grab something for Avery, this may just be it. Especially since it can be paired with Kittywalk’s other products, like their gazebo play tent. Here’s a visual of what that would look like. Walkway between cat enclosures: this style of outdoor tunnel is used for joining up an outdoor cat enclosure with the inside of your house (or potentially another outdoor enclosure), providing a safe passage between the two protected spaces. Which of these options look best to you? Would you prioritize size, ability to add more to extend the initial product you bought, the ability to connect the tunnel or tent to the house? Would you prioritize long-term durability? The likelihood that a flighty cat would not be able to break free (I’m sure this will not be an issue for most indoor cats who are very chill personalities – but that’s definitely not my scaredy cat’s way!). Expandability: Some enclosures offer the option to add on tunnels, rooms, or platforms. If you think you might want to expand in the future, consider one of these modular systems.
