Catnets 11’8 Premium Portable Catio

Part List

Preparation

Check that you have all the required parts.
Make sure to install the Portable Catio on a level ground surface.
Split the poles into two groups one for Type A and the other for Type B
Ensure that the long insert of the Type A pole is inserted ONLY into the end of the Type B pole and NOT the connectors.
Make sure to lock all connectors securely

Installation Steps

Locate and connect the Type A Pole to the Type B Pole to form a large pole.
NOTE : Be sure to align the pin lock with the hole on the Type B pole, and make sure the poles click securely into place.
Layout the net flat on the ground and make sure the hook and loop tabs are facing up. Slide the newly joined poles into the webbing of the net.
NOTE : Ensure the zipper is on the left of the long side of the Portable Catio, facing you so that the net doesn’t become twisted once attached.
Attatch the newly joined poles to the 3-way connectors creating the corners of the frame. Use the 4-way connectors to connect the middle of the frame.
NOTE : For ALL connectors ensure that the flat sides are facing down when attaching to the poles.
Connect the next set of poles into the base. Then attach the remaining connectors on top in the same way as the step before.
NOTE : Ensure that all the flat sides are facing up when attaching to the poles
Connect the remaining poles to complete the main frame.
Pull the net to the top of the frame and secure it using the pre-attached hook and loop tabs. Then secure the side of the net to complete the Portable Catio

Check out the accessories available at www.catnetting.com for your Portable Catio. Below are instructions on how to attach the Shade Sail and Cat Hammock accessories to your Portable Catio. THESE ACCESSORIES ARE SOLD SEPARATELY.

IMPORTANT CAUTION:
DO NOT OVER-CLOSE ZIP BUCKLES AT F-JUNCTION

When using the zipper entry, be sure to open and close the zipper carefully and never use excessive force as this can cause damage to the slider and render the zipper ineffective. The zipper entry can be a trip hazard, so be sure to step through carefully and ensure that you do not kick or step on the zipper track. This can also cause permanent damage to the zip. When closed, the two zippers will leave a small gap. The supplied locking carabiner should be used to secure the zipper entry as shown.

Cat Shade Sail Installation Instructions

The shade sail can be purchased as an additional accessory (not included).

It can be placed on top of the Portable Catio covering the whole roof or it can be set covering half the roof and half the side. Attach the shade sail by the hook and loop tabs on the shade sail onto the poles of the Portable Catio. Please monitor your Portable Catio carefully during high winds, and adjust the positioning of your shade sail to minimize the wind catch. Do not attach a tarpaulin or a heavy-duty shade cloth (other than the Shade Sail designed for this product) directly to the Portable Catio.

RECOMMENDATIONS:

For extra stability you can use tent pegs (not supplied) and/or rope (not supplied) to secure the frame to the ground. In most situations this is not required, however we recommend monitoring the frame during high wind periods, and secure accordingly. Tying rope from the top corners gives the best results in extremely high wind areas.

NOTICE : Upon completion of your new Portable Catio, customers are advised to closely monitor the initial behavior of your cat/s when inside the Portable Catio.
IMPORTANT : This Portable Catio has been designed for use by cats only and is not covered for damage resulting from coyotes, dogs or other animals housed in OR outside of the Portable Catio. If you live in an area with a high coyote population and you are concerned about coyotes coming onto your property, we recommend you research coyote exclusion techniques, deterrents, and repellents for the most suitable and effective way to keep coyotes off your property.

Cat Hammock Installation Instructions
The Cat Hammock can be purchased as an additional accessory (not included).

Step 1: Lay the hammock on the floor inside the Portable Catio to identify the three attachment points:

A : Corner with hook and loop pre-attached.
B : Right angle corner with eyelet only.
C : Corner with eyelet only.

Step 2: For corner’s B and C feed one end of the hook and loop through the eyelet leaving a 4 inch tab on the top. Then feed the other end through the net mesh, around the frame pole and back through under the 4 inch tab.

Step 3: Wrap this end around the 4 inch tab. Make sure to press in the hook and loop together, covering as much surface area as possible as you wrap around the tab. This will help with strength when holding the cat’s weight.

Step 4: Make sure both corner’s B and C are completely tightly secured and taught before attaching corner A. Attach corner A using the same method of looping around the frame pole and wrapping around the tab.
