I built this for the cats, just a fencing post hammered into a metpost, with shelves attached with brackets and a finishing touch finial on top! Very cheap to make.

We built an outdoor cat tree for Charlie and planted grasses so he can hide.  He also has his undercover mouse outdoors on nice days, ping pong balls and purry curlies round the garden, bubbles and tunnels.  He has a cat house which he NEVER uses and I am putting up some shelves along the wall  for him to climb on.  He also has a water feature which I thought he would love but he studiously ignores.  I hide treats round the garden (obviously on nice days) and we play hunt with his Da Mouse.

He also, of course, likes to join in the gardening and watering.

A littertray with water and pingpong balls in works too  ;)

Shelves along the fence at different heights, tunnels and solar lights will attract moths in for playtime  ;D

Thanks lottie :) The play stations look brilliant and not that expensive either. Not sure if they'd work with the katzecure system-I'll show them to the man who's doing it and see what he thinks.
Not sure whether my cats like water or not-I might try an ordinary bowl and see how they get on.

I can highly recommend cat play stations http://www.catplay-stations.com/

I appreciate most cats wouldn't like this but if your cats loves water then consider one of these filled with water and then pop some childrens wind up bath toys and ping pong balls in  ;D http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/3650141/c_1/1%7Ccat_12107734%7COutdoor+toys%7C12107855/Trail/searchtext>SAND.htm

Planting a buddleia will attract butterflies into your garden for them to watch as well.

We are going to have our garden enclosed with the Katzecure system. So we're thinking it would be nice to make our garden a bit more interesting for our cats. It's very small (pics here http://www.flickr.com/photos/22351913@N07/sets/72157615713466088/)
I've searched for outdoor toys but that only brings up an outdoor house. We don't need this as we have a catflap.
Thanks for any suggestions
