Catios made the New York Times AND SNL's Weekend Update in the same week. π± π° πΊ
The New York Times just covered how catios became a real industry, and they quoted me: "It also really did take off fairly dramatically during the pandemic, when people were staying home, not spending money on trips and things like that, but instead doing house improvements and also getting more animals."
Then, a couple of days later, catios landed on the Weekend Update desk. π When SNL is joking about your industry, it's officially mainstream.
PAWsome πΎ to see the industry get so much attention nearly 10 years and 600 builds after I launched my business.

The global βcatioβ industry could grow by roughly $1 billion in the next decade.
