Cat Fence Rollers vs Cat Fence Brackets

Cats are agile and can easily scale fences or walls that are 1.8m+ from ground height. Some people try to train their cat to stay in the garden to keep them safe but the most effective solution is to use a cat fence barrier around the perimter of your garden, enabling you to sit back and enjoy the garden with your cats, safe in the knowledge that they can't wander.

The only sure-fire way to ensure your cat won't venture further than your garden is to use a cat containment system. Cat Fence Barriers are the easiest method to convert your entire garden into a cat safe territory, if you have suitable pre-existing fencing or walls.

Whether you have small garden or a large garden, there are lots of options for making your garden cat proof. Cat fence barriers are a neat and simple solution to giving your cat access to the whole garden. Or, if you have a small garden, you could consider an outdoor cat run or catio.

Cat enclosures comes in all shapes an sizes and can be tailored to your outdoor space - small or large. It is really important that your cat enclosure is attached to your house so that your cat can come and go freely from the indoors to the outdoors.

Once mature, most cats will try to explore their local neighbourhood and agile cats can easily scale fences of 2m+. Some cat owners - seeking peace of mind about their cat's safety - decide to train their cat to stay in the garden, give their cat outside access on a lead or choose a cat fence barrier to keep their cat in a safe outdoor territory.

Cat-proof fences are effective in keeping cats within a designated territory. Most cat fence barriers are not two way and neighbourhood cats could still climb into the garden from outside.

A cat proof barrier should be at least 1.8m from the highest leap point. If you have raised flower beds or garden furniture, you will need to maintain a distance of 1.8m from them. ProtectaPet offer a range of modular cat fencing components that enables you to cat proof fences of all heights.

It's great that you've made the decision to keep your cat safe outdoors. There are two main ways of turning your garden into a cat safe territory. Cat fence rollers can be made from timber or PVC and the cat struggles to grip the roller. Alternatively, cat fence brackets are usually made from metal with in connecting mesh. This means that cat fence brackets are easily tailored to the garden perimeter and easily adapted to the features of your garden such as gates, trees and sheds.
