Hello @Lboyd 

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your your question about building a cat enclosure.

 

I suggest having a quick look at these discussions - D.I.Y. mesh cat enclosure by @Chrissie35 and How to build a catio? by @Mel_K. Building the frame does not have to be overly complicated. It is basically a square or rectangular frame. 

 

However, adding a roof means that the frame has be strong enough to hold the weight of the roof frame and the roof sheets. otherwise, if you are just covering it with tarp or bird netting then you can keep the frame simple. How big did you want the cat enclosure to be? What surface will yo be building on and was there anything specific you wanted to install in your cat enclosure?

  

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.
