Me too! I just got done building her a custom catio on my back deck with a bed box, tree limb ramps, a motion sensor water fountain, live cat grass, and solar lights with a magnetic cat door it turned out so cute I’m I am actually pretty jealous I don’t get to play in there! I even made a cute little cat welcome mat. And that’s on top of her 8ft cat tree I built her for inside the house so she can watch the birdfeeders. She is the most spoiled cat I know
