That sounds like a good idea for an indoor cat.

My guess is that it's a bag of treats. If I even so much as mention treats to my cat, even in a deep sleep, he'll lift up his ears and start purring. If he hears the treat bag ruffle, he'll leap over from what ever he's doing and wait for the goodness Smile I'm not sure what's in those treats but cats love them!

There is a series on Amazon Prime "Super Epic Cats." You really need to watch it.

If we pulled that box trick on our cat, he'd kill us in our sleep.

Regarding the catio. Think fleas.

Dip your cats and there won't be fleas.

If the catio has screen openings bigger than the fleas, the fleas will come into the house that way.

From the yard.

I see where you're going, but it still doesn't make much sense. What would be the difference with a catdoor used in conjunction with the catio versus how every other cat door in the world is currently used?

I dont understand the logic here. Honestly not being a smartass, but my dog sits outside for half hours at a time and we have yet to have fleas. I am unsure how a catio is any different than that if you are flea and ticking your pets?

Most of these catios use a cat door type thing. You could also treat the catio with home defense.

Catios have been linked to elevated flea infestations in several double blind studies. See the study below:

I don't dose my cats every month. Since they are inside only, there is no need as long as I don't bring fleas into the house. Excessive fleas, that is.

I'd love to have a catio, but it would have to be plexi, not screen. Then what is the point?
