The Purrfect Fence Free-Standing Cat Containment System is designed to secure a perimeter of cat-proof fencing. It can be configured to suit your needs and can use different kit sizes to make your system as spacious as you would like.
The extremely strong yet flexible poly mesh makes climbing very difficult, but the safeguards for our cat containment systems are the Cat-Proofer™ extender arms which enable the entire upper section of the fence to pivot. The cat's weight causes these horizontal extension arms to swing downward, safely returning your pet to the ground. Once the cat's weight is released from the mesh, the spring-loaded extenders immediately return the upper section of the fence to its horizontal position.
Our system is built to last. The posts, arms, and welded wire are galvanized steel with a black powder coating and all the arm hardware and spring are stainless. All other metal components are galvanized or stainless steel and the plastic fence UV stabilized with carbon black and chemical UV inhibitors.
A 100-foot kit made into a square would be approximately 24' x 24' (576 square feet) but most customers use the back of their house as a "side" allowing a kit to make a bigger overall enclosure and easier access for the cats. One example of a 100-foot kit enclosure off the back of a house would be 28' x 40' (28' out from the house - over 40' and back 28') making an enclosure that is 1,120 square feet. A 200 ft kit enclosure off the back of a house could be 64' x 64' (64' out from the house - over 64' and back 64') making an enclosure that is 4,096 square feet.
The system is designed to be installed by the homeowner so it is not generally considered difficult to do by a handy person (site dependent). If it is something you do not want to do yourself we would recommend using a local handyman. Written instructions and installation videos are provided. We are also available to help you figure out how to use our systems on your property and can also talk/email you through almost any unforeseen obstacles you may run into during installation: 888-280-4066 or email Sending pictures can be helpful :)

We bought the fence in 2007/08 and it is still in good shape. However, this year 2022 we bought some new parts to do repair work due to trees that have fallen over the fence during storm and a heavy snow fall some years ago.
I have had mine up for about 2 months and my cats have not even tried to climb it. Even my escape artists is finally contained while getting that outdoor stimulation he needs. I had an issue with the spacers for the light duty gate being too large, but the company was super responsive and sent me new custom sized spacers within 24 hours.
Cats are happy to be outside but contained so predators can’t get in and they can’t get out . I have a rescue and one of the less tame cats tried to no avail to get out but couldn’t and finally gave up. Best fencing option for cat lovers, rescues, and shelters
Marty the Tiger Cat can now go outside, and he loves it. He goes in and out the window screen cat door, and he wants me to always come join him. He sits on my lap, then goes to explore. Freedom and fun for him, relaxation for me.
They were cautious at first but now they let us know in NO uncertain terms “we want to go outside to play…now!” They spend hours in the back yard having all kinds of kitty cat fun.
I havent had a chance to use the fence yet. Its part of another area we are enclosing for a feral colony that has to be relocated. We are still workong on it. It looks great and we are very hopeful it will keep the cats in. Customer service is amazing and they are so helpful!
We needed to redo our Cat Fence because our new adoptee, Freya was an exceptional climber, and escape artist, and was continuing to confound us by escaping the old enclosure. After Jennifer's advice on how to install the new Purrfect cat fence correctly, we are happy to report that she has not been able to escape from the new enclosure. Both our cats Hobbes and Freya are now able to enjoy the back yard and patio safely.
