HOW CAN I CONTAIN MY CAT(S)?

Indoor cats are becoming a more & more popular choice by owners these days due to all the challenges cats face in the outdoors.

At QT Community CATs we support this, and have provided tips & tricks to help you contain your cat safely at home, while still enriching their lives through cat toys, scratch posts/ climbing trees and most importantly, a simple box! Affordable toys can be purchased from Kmart or The Warehouse, plus many more local online stores.

​

Listed below are some options to create an outdoor 'catio', with the use of a cat door leading outside from a window or door. By giving your cat their own outdoor space you can be assured that your cat is always safe, and they have their own private space to have a cat nap & play with bugs in all while in the security of your own home.

​
