Moving into a new home with four cats in tow isn’t for the faint of heart as any cat owner (read: slave/caretaker) knows. And trying to keep the little tyrants content with optimal lounging time in the sun is a tough ask. And yet that’s exactly what Dave did, when he built us this lovely “catio” complete with ledges, trellises and planter boxes that look straight out of the cover of an artisan magazine. He brought to life the outdoor space we’d envisaged, except he did it more beautifully than we had imagined. His attention to the tiniest details, his meticulous craftsmanship, and his own little ingenious tweaks is what really sealed the deal for us. And our family of four-legged and two-legged creatures couldn’t be happier with this lil’ slice of outdoorsy heaven.
