To all cat-owners who have escape artists, you may wish to check this out though it is not available here: http://www.oscillot.com.au/main/page_home.html
Do you think it will work? http://www.thecatsite.com/t/247637/oscillot-cat-fence
Our disclaimer holds.
I think with Pole and Indy, I’ll just play it safe and revert to the conventional “fence” concept. No more nettings, I’ll probably use polycarbonate if it doesn’t cost a bomb!
With nettings, the sturdy ones are out because once they get a good grip, they can climb on it and make their escape. So, very often, a soft netting is recommended, but with soft nettings, it wears and tears within months due to the elements. For our case, Mr G dug holes in them so it doesn’t work for us.
Meanwhile, dateline: 1.40pm…
All is quiet on the western front.
Maybe our masked hero is exhausted after the failed attempt this morning? Shh…
Yay…I got the condo, I got the condo!
Madame Still Waters…is sleeping.
Stillness = Peace ??
Not always.

Dr chan Mayb u can modified abit. Try replace the middle thingy with a metal or plastic pipe which cost much cheaper. Tell ur contractor n he should probably knw how to do it
Hi Wil, thought of the plastic pipe idea already, but my wall ledge is shared with the neighbours, so we cannot install this.
Dr chan pls check the below pic. Mayb u can try this?

My friend and I were discussing EXACTLY this idea this morning! But we figured since cats can jump up to 9-12 times their height, Pole would just jump onto the ledge. We’ve seen how accurately she jumps and lands. She’s perfected the art after surviving for 5 years outside as a community cat. But, thanks, Wil, truly appreciate it all.
Haha….ur cats r seriously way too smart! XD
Yes. Never knew Indy was so smart also. Perhaps it’s because I named him Indy Jones, so he has to live up to his name!!
LOL at this : “Pretending to sniff the flowers, but the mind is working furiously”. It is so very true!
