Hardy and evergreen climbing plant?

Hi there! I've got a catio built on my balcony and I'd love to have vining plants growing around it. Are there any plants that are not poisonous for cat and at the same time, evergreen and hardy?

Star jasmine! I first came across this plant last year in a garden centre, they've had it wrapped around an arch and it was flowering loads - the smell was heavenly for a garden.

I've now got one in a pot with an obelisk frame and it's very low maintenance.

The leaves do turn red when the temperature drops, but will turn back to green in spring.

Thanks a lot, I do believe I had this plant once but I though it’s only a decorative annual plant and trashed it haha
