Thread: Make a garden Maine Coon proof!

We have done the whole back garden - we used Felisafe fence topping: http://catfencing.org.uk
We have had to get tree-guards as he learnt to climb, but it is now completely Sidney-proof and other cats can't get in at all.
The fence was about 60m long in total, with three tree guards and the whole lot cost about £450, with another £200 to get it put up by a local chap. We could have done it ourselves, but we were in a hurry! The chap there was very helpful and made us bespoke tree guards to fit our young silver birches.

It doesn't look too bad, even in Winter, I was worried it might be a bit like a prison but it's fine.
The best bit is going out knowing that Sidney is having fun killing things outside, but is not getting run over or cat-napped.



One funny thing that happened - we let Sid out quite early as we had an early start. It was till dark and we didn't realise that the guinea pig run was not flat on the lawn. We came home hours later to see Sid pressed up against the patio doors, wailing, surrounded by a semi-circle of escaped guinea pigs who had, according to the neighbours, been terrorising him all day! He couldn't get away from them and they were having the time of their lives chasing him. Poor kitten, he was traumatised for hours.
