Oh Paco. You're so handsome!
Paco already had a wonderful catio
This is the biggest and most complicated catio I've ever built.
The addition emerges from the original catio...
Bridge over to above the monkey bars.
Hey! This is really cool!
I'll come back down and show you.
Paco can hardly wait.
Why doesn't it go farther?
I wanna go farther.
Planning a route through the boughs!
OK, Paco, here comes farther.
Have to link it all up!
OK, this is better.
A long ramp down the back of the play structure.
The ramp emerges into the space beneath the play structure.
The space underneath the play structure was enclosed for Paco.
He can emerge from underneath the play structure and hang out in this section.
Paco very quickly made himself comfy in what we called the West Wing
He's always up for a visit.
The last addition was a crow's nest.
An amazing lookout! I'm not sure the clients appreciated me referring to it as 'Paco's Panopticon'.
I was straight up working in *in a tree*.
I had to build a special platform in order to work in the tree.
It's so much fun to involve natural elements in a catio!
A little bit Frank Lloyd Wright.
Paco was so happy to give the tree a careful sniff.
Paco is a real charmer.
Paco is good about expressing appreciation.
If me today told me as a child that I'd still be up in trees in my 50s, child me would have said "yeah, that tracks."
Paco has a lot of opinions. Very helpful ones, though.
