Overview
The Kitty City Outdoor Mega Kit from SportPet Designs is a 3-level nylon cat enclosure rated for both indoor and outdoor use, with a door-mount option that lets you attach it to a window or doorway for easy access.
At 47.25 by 33 by 46.75 inches and just 11.8 pounds, it is large enough to give a cat real climbing room while still being light enough to move, fold, or store when not in use. The nylon build keeps the price under $100, but it also means this is not a wood or metal catio built for years of hard outdoor wear.
It comes with a 6 month limited warranty, which is on the shorter side for an outdoor product and worth keeping in mind if you expect this to be a long-term fixture rather than a seasonal setup.

What buyers say
With a 4.2-star rating from about 2,600 reviews and roughly 700 purchases a month, this is one of the more popular outdoor catio kits in the category, though its rating trails some of the higher-scoring options here.
Can this catio be used indoors as well as outdoors?
Yes, it is rated for both indoor and outdoor use, so you can set it up inside during colder months and move it outside when the weather allows.
Does it come fully assembled?
No, assembly is required. The nylon panels and frame need to be set up, and the door-mount hardware attached, before your cat can use it.
Will it survive being left outside all year?
It is not designed for that. The nylon construction and 6 month warranty suggest it is better suited to seasonal or supervised outdoor use rather than permanent outdoor exposure.
