My cats are not as happy as I thought very depressed and started spraying in the home due to territorial issues with outside cats but fence is doing its job and keeping them in …thank you
Really cool product, I've installed a few of these now and am very impressed on how easy they are to install and how well they work.
Great products and easy to fit. Makes the garden secure from unwanted guests and gives peace of mind knowing my cats can explore the outside safely
Ok I had it installed as there was some rock in the area… it has been very windy and the poles are super solid in the ground with that base. Everything pulled tight and is staying that way. Lots of attempts for escape but everyone gives up even before the top curve. I’m so happy they are so happy.
I put it on my cinder block wall. I am not super skilled with the drill, but it was easy and my kitties are safe!
Having the fence has allowed my cats to run, chase and just relax outside with grass and dirt. I can sit in a chair and we all enjoy the nice weather. You can see through it so it does not block out the nature beyond the fence. Has been sturdy and seems to be well built. I had it installed by someone who has done these fences before and I am very pleased.
We're very happy with the heavy duty gate we installed in our free standing fence. Installation was very easy with the help of the instructional videos provided. The gate works well and seems very sturdy. The only issue at all is that the latch scratches the post easily so we'll need to keep an eye out for rust.
Over the years, our cats have always done well coming and going on their own with a cat door, but our newest cat, Kiki, isn't like all the others. We taught her how to use the cat door and she got lost for 8 days. She ended up at a neighbor's house and they took her to a vet where her chip was scanned. After we got her home, I needed to find a way to allow her as much freedom as possible while still keeping her safe.
I researched online and found Purrfect Fence. They had great reviews and videos, and the cost was reasonable. With DIY skills, me and my husband were confident we could do the installation ourselves.
Their instructional videos were very helpful. We had no problems with the posts. It took a while to get used to hanging the mesh, but the more we worked with it the easier it got. Corners are the hardest part and took a while for me to be happy with them but they worked out fine.
We are really impressed with the quality of the materials and component aspect of the fence. We had an ice storm about two months after we got the fence up which brought some large limbs down onto the back corner of the fence where it meets our wooden fence side (see photos). After we got the limbs cleared out, we could see that the fence had only one damaged arm, and the mesh was barely torn. After replacing the bent arm, we were able to rehang the mesh without even making a patch!
So far, neither Kiki nor our other cat, Lucifer, have breached the fence. Lucifer presents a separate problem for us because he has to go out on his own, so we installed a couple of gates in the fence. We are able to prop them open for him at night and segment our house with an interior door so that Luci can go out the cat door and roam while Kiki stays safely inside.
We are both really impressed with the fence and feel confident that it will keep Kiki close by as long as we stay diligent about the doors and gates.
I had a very tricky situation with open land, retaining walls, access gates, ect… I did hire a pro fence installer, but he had many conversations with Purrfect Fence on the best way to keep my Houdini cats enclosed. I am ecstatically happy! We did mix the dog fencing, cat fencing and used the dig proof wire. HOA approved as well!
After spending over $1500 on DIY containment attempts, I bought the Purrfect Fence system and wish I’d done it sooner. Our little black ninja cat is finally unable to get out of the backyard!
The only thing I’d like to see would be more zip ties included.
I’ve always had outdoor cats but unfortunately my neighbor and I have both lost a cat to coyotes in past year. I was so concerned about keeping my other two cats inside for ever. This fence is perfect! I was worried it might look ugly or obtrusive but against my already installed black metal fence and shrubs, it doesn’t stand out at all. Even the top part Turing inwards looks fine. I installed only on side of house to see, but May now do the whole yard! Had it installed by my landscapers in under 4 hours. Well-built, sturdy and no cats have gotten out in over a month! Looking forward to more vegetation growth inside the pen, but otherwise it’s the perfect solution to keep your cat’s most innate instincts active and thriving! They get to use their senses, eyesight, hearing, smelling and hunt in fresh air and nature! Like nature intended. And no one can attack them ! Far better than a concrete “catio”. Thank god this product exists!
It was easy to put together, and it works incredibly well.
Since the gate is attached to the fence, the weight of the gate hits the ground when it is opened or closed.
The gate latch opens when it's up, so it's difficult for a cat to jump and try to open it.
Even if a cat tries to open the bottom of the gate, it is difficult for the cat to get out because it is sturdy.
Our cat is about 2 and a half years old and was originally a pet cat, but we rescued her as a lost cat.
She wants to go outside a lot and we are worried that she might crawl under the car or go a little far, so I saw this fence and decided it was the one for her.
She still wants to get out of the fence, but It is safer to stay inside the fence at dusk.
It took a while to install, but I don't think it would be difficult once you do it yourself.
This fence has changed my cats lives for the better. If I had the money, I’d fence my entire yard in with it. Love!
Relatively easy to install - 100 linear feet installed by one person in about 10 hours. Definitely goes faster with a helper.
Effective deterrent for my 6 month old kitten. He can scale the 10 foot tall section of my horizontally-slatted fence, but has not even tried to get out where the purrfect fence topper is installed. Just added the fence topper to the 10 foot sections as well.
Worth it!
The stray cats that I rescued are safe and sound in my fence!! It’s been 60 days. They were used to be roaming free on 3 acres.
My purpose for purchasing this item was actually to prevent iguanas from having the leverage on the tree, to climb high enough to eat the flowers of my plant beneath the tree. It has actually worked quite well for the larger iguanas, because they cannot get a grip on the trunk, causing a great deal of difficulty for them when climbing down from the tree. This makes them not as interested as they used to be in sitting in the tree. I would say that this item worked better than any other option that I have, so I would recommend it. If it can deter iguanas from climbing, it should surely deter cats.
We bought the medium kit, which was enough for two medium size tree trunks. Easy to put up and is great to stop our cats climbing up a tree right next to our fence.
I used the fence conversion kit the day after I moved into my previous property with my 4 rescue cats.
Five years later my husband and I moved into our new house with a much larger garden and brought our old system (mesh and brackets) with us. Unfortunately we didn’t have anywhere near enough mesh for the new garden, so after a quick call to the company and a bargain price later, 30 more metres of mesh arrived, just two days after the call!
It only took an hour in torrential rain to cat proof the garden, and our recent rescue cat (the others passed through illness to rainbow bridge over the years) eagerly ran out to explore his new domain!
As usual, it works perfectly and has kept him in, and the neighbourhood cats out! With my anxiety, I couldn’t have cats going outside if it weren’t for this firm - a massive thank you to you all, from all of us!
The cat fence is a nice addition for my cats to stay safe but still be able to explore outdoors. We moved and it has a been a big transition from free range on 2+ acres to a city backyard. Overall easy to set up, needed some tightening . Watch the videos for good tips and helpful details
Thankfully I had some buddies help me put my new purrfect fence up! I live in the southwest region of the country and my kitties are safe and cannot bother other wild life out here, and vise versa! The roadrunners can do their thing without getting a surprise from my kitties! We had to figure out the corners around the house because here, stucco is majority of homes outer material and I didn’t want to risk drilling in it. We put our heads together and found a way around that and so far so good! Glad we didn’t have to drill into the stucco! Im hoping this southwest constant sun won’t wear down the mesh and materials of the fence too quickly, but we shall see.
I modified the freestanding purrfect fence for the deck off my townhouse. The deck is one story above ground so I used flagpole holders to hold the posts. This made the catio taller so I put the plastic mesh at the top and “sewed” it to the wire mesh. I threaded bamboo rods through the wire to make it harder for the cats to lift up. Then I secured the bottom and the poles to the deck railings. It is great so far! My old ladies were indoor-outdoor at their previous home, so they are loving this secure patch of the outdoor life.
My cat was a stray and got a foxtail lodged in her eye. After an emergency vet visit and her eye is now healed, I couldn't let her keep going in the field next to my yard with the foxtails. So, I installed Purrfect Fence and she's been protected and happy in my yard as an indoor/outdoor kitty!
Having a large, safe area for our 6 cats to enjoy has brought so much peace & joy to our home. Our 2 alpha females have finally called a truce after a year of trying to integrate. All six now sleep through the night after playing outside most of the day. Happy happy happy!
