Show Off Your Catio!

Thank you for wanting to share your catio!

The Catio Tour is a wonderful way for people to see a variety of catios, learn about what works and also what may not work well, and get generally inspired to build their own catio to keep their cats safe at home. We couldn’t put on this fantastic annual event without the kindness of homeowners who are willing to share their space.

The 2026 Catio Tour will be a one-day event in September showcasing catios in the Portland Metro area. Hosts need to be present throughout the tour (4 hours) to answer first-hand catio questions from curious guests. Volunteers and staff will oversee set-up, guest check-in, and be on hand to provide Tour and Program Information.

Applications to be a Catio Host on the 2026 Catio Tour will be open at the beginning of February 2026. Please come back then and tell us about your catio and why your kitty loves it!
