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. Outdoor tunnels can provide your indoor cat with extended territory to play out these hunting instincts safely outdoors. Think of your cat’s indoor space as their home base where they eat, sleep and interact with their housemates. On the contrary, the cat tunnel mimics their home range, which is an extension of their territory. The home range is where cats would typically hunt prey and timeshare territory with strange cats that are not in their inner circle. Incorporate vertical spaces like shelves or climbing structures. Adding toys, scratching posts, and even safe plants can stimulate your cat’s senses and keep them entertained. Ensure there’s also a shaded area and comfortable resting spots. 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!).

Here are some key tips to consider: Ground tunnels provide the perfect alternative to a catio if your city prohibits building any sort of elevated permanent structure. I ran the entire 50 foot wire parallel down the side of my neighbors fence. I am going to use the tent steaks to keep the wire in the ground. I think I am going to use my tree or a another piece of wire to secure and close the end. I will need to do the same for the entrance since I am making a make shift cat run. Do you think this will work until I am able to make your cat tunnel design? Of course I will be outside with them keeping my eye on them. Pouncing from a hidden tunnel feels like the ultimate hunt, releasing the brain chemical dopamine that is coupled with a feeling of eager anticipation. This response can happen even with the slightest sound of nearby prey. Your cat’s hunting mode is firing on all four cylinders, or rather, paws!
