I bought the fence out of necessity because a new neighbor was threatening my cats. However, I have been a cat lover for many years and truly wish that I knew about these fences and had it installed a long time ago. I paid a couple of coworkers to install it around my small yard in front of an existing fence. It took 3 days to do almost 300 feet with 3 gates. The cats do not try to climb it, but a couple still search the bottom for a hole every day. Several meet me at the gate but none try to run out. The fence hasn't slowed down the raccoons however, still have 6 of them coming and going every night. The fence works purrfectly for who it was intended tho. My only complaint is during rainy weather and getting through the gate. The netting holds water and you do get wet. But that is a minor issue to deal with to have safe happy kitties!
