Product Information

While collars with bells have moderate success 1 in reducing the number of animals that cats catch when outside, new, more effective collars are available. Birdsbesafe collars have been developed to work with the birds themselves. Birds can’t hear bells on collars as well as we hope they could, but the Birdsbesafe collar is vibrantly patterned.

Cats are cute, cuddly and fun to have around – until they start scratching up your furniture or using your garden as a litter box. If you’re tired of dealing with pesky felines, there are a few things you can do to keep them away from your property. Don’t forget about the bottom of the fence. Although cats do not dig quite as aggressively as dogs, they will still play around in loose dirt, and they certainly will discover any low spots in the yard where they can crawl under a fence. It does not have to be a big hole. If your cat’s head fits into an opening, their body probably will too. As winter approaches, many pet owners start to worry about how to keep their cats warm and healthy throughout the colder months. After all, cats are notoriously fussy creatures, and they often seem to prefer the warmth of a sunny windowsill to snuggling up under a blanket. Cats are natural climbers, and while this can be a fun and entertaining trait, there are times when it can be dangerous or destructive. If you’re looking for ways to stop your cat from climbing, there are a few things you can try.Taking the time to close as many gaps as possible is a great way to cat-proof your fence by making it harder for your adventurous kitty to escape. This can be especially challenging with chain-link fences because the bottom often does not sit flush with the ground. Cut a door in the front of your cat house. The door should be about 10″x10″, and should be centered on the front piece of lumber. Animal deterrent sprays based on aluminium ammonium sulphate (e.g. Vitax Stay Off orGrowing SuccessAnimal Repellent) or calcium cloride (e.g. Grazers G1)may discourage deer from feeding but need frequent application in spring and summer to keep pace with new growth. Such sprays may also divert deer onto feeding on other plants that have previously been left alone. Decorate your tree with nontraditional ornaments. Cats are attracted to shiny objects, so try hanging something that’s not as sparkly.

Cats don’t like the feel of double-sided tape, so put some around the base of the tree. This will create a barrier that cats won’t want to cross. Skip the sharp metal hangers traditionally used to hang ornaments—they can injure curious kitties! Instead, fasten ornaments to branches as tightly as you can with wire or twine to keep your cat from swatting them off.

Providing furniture pieces and high points next to the tree will make good launching pads that you don’t want. How to Keep Cats Away From a Christmas Tree Another option is to provide an alternative scratching post for your cat. This will give them a place to scratch without damaging the tree. Look for a scratching post that is tall and sturdy, and make sure it is placed in an area that your cat frequents. If you have a cat that is particularly persistent, you may want to consider using a noise-making device, such as a ultrasonic device, to keep them away from the tree.

You can also use a cat pheromone spray to attract them to their perfect gifts (cat tree, toys, and scratching post) and steer them off your Christmas tree. Electric fences are a great way to keep people (and animals) out of your yard, and they can be an effective tree climbing barrier as well. Just be sure that the fence is tall enough to deter climbers, and that there are no gaps or holes that they could use to get around it.

Cat Fence Features

Most cats are reluctant to embrace changes made to their routine or environment. And when a towering pine tree strewn with shiny baubles shows up unexpectedly in your home, well—that’s a BIG change for your cat to adjust to. Another reason cats may climb trees is to simply enjoy the view. After all, cats are known for their love of high places. So, if your cat seems to be spending a lot of time in the treetops, it’s likely because they’re just enjoying the view from up there!
