Installing an outdoor cat fence
Living the Country Life Radio Program
Installing an outdoor cat fence is a great way to provide your feline companion with a safe place to play. A cat fence is made of a series of tall mesh grids attached to angled extenders that warp when extra weight is added. The resulting effect is similar to a cat trying to climb a very slick curtain it can't dig its nails into. Cat fences are also useful if you're having trouble with coyotes or neighboring dogs bothering your pet. However, you'll still need to provide adequate supervision and make sure your yard is free of toxic plants, garden chemicals, and other items that could be hazardous to your cat.
