Here are some instructions on what a man did to make his catio from a 10' pallet plus some more lumber to frame it. There are many styles of catios based on what you need and how many kitties you have, sounds like a fun project:

There are lots of ways to do it, depending on the style you want. Here's a link to get you started:

First decide how large a catio you wish to build, then gather as many pallets as neeeded for the project. You can also incorporate wire fencing into the scheme to give a more open feel to the catio.
Not sure about pallets but here is one that sounds easy to make.https://catiospaces.com/catios-cat-enclosures/cat-behavior-enrichment/build-diy-catio-plan-for-your-cat/

Here's another fun one! We don't even own cats but I kind of want to build this lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVatdHWi2Ws
That’s tuff you could build a box you need something for the floor then fram it out then you need chicken wire so they can’t get out and don’t forget a door
We built one out of scrap wood. We made the frame to fill the whole window - so we could remove the screen and bugs wouldn’t get it. Then we made another box the same size. We attached a top and bottom between the two frames and wrapped it all with screening. It works great!
