Title: Any ideas for a quick bit of cat proofing?
Post by: Mark on April 14, 2009, 11:56:06 AM
We just need some on the fence and gate at the end of our garden - its about 7ft high and 20ft across. We only need the end going as on the right is a 30+ft brick wall (vets) and on the left, a 6ft wall followed by a flat roof and a yard with a 3oft wall at the other side.

This works well for my mum but not for me sadly. It depends on how active your cats are and how determined!  :tired:

I suppose with your cats being older it may work  :)

Willow may be 10 but she has a small frame and is very agile & energetic AND VERY DETERMINED  :evillaugh: - When I picked her up at the vet the other day, the VN said Willow had scratched her for looking at her the wrong way or something - she said she clipped Willows claws  :evillaugh: - Yesterday I saw hwer launch herself at the fence 3 or 4 times before she got over. Probably a combination of no points and being under the weather handicapped her slightly.

Thanks MM - I will get the measurements and a photo and PM her. No point spending a fortune on something that is going to be replaced soon.
