You asked, we answered
What is a Fido’s Fences Cat Fence?
A ‘Cat Fence’ is the same Hidden Fence that is used for dogs. We just call it a Cat Fence when we are using it for cats! However, we know that cats are important, so our Indoor Cat Boundary has a special design specifically for cats. Just like our other products, you can use our Cat Fence to keep your pet in a designated containment area, such as a yard or specific areas in your house; or away from an area, such as the kitchen counters, the couch or favorite ‘scratching post’ chair, the swimming pool or garden. You can use the same receiver collar with our indoor products and our outdoor Hidden Fence.
How does the Cat Fence work?
For outdoor fences, a hidden wire, buried underground, carries the harmless, low level FM radio signal around the containment area. Your pet wears a receiver on a collar that picks up the radio signal and emits a mild stimulation (also called a correction) if it gets too close to the boundary. Using visual flags and an audible signal, your pet is trained to recognize where the boundary is. After training, it is unusual for pets to receive the correction as they know to avoid the boundary area. With consistent boundaries and good training, pets can play happily knowing where they should and shouldn’t go.
With our Indoor Cat Boundary, the transmitter emits the radio signal directly from the portable transmitter to create an “off-limits” area up to 10 feet in diameter. Or it can be used with a wire that you can hide around your couch or other containment area to create an indoor “fence”. All of our other Indoor Boundaries can also be used with our Cat Fence collar.
Does the outdoor hidden fence work for cats?
Yes. We have successfully trained many cats to use both indoor and outdoor hidden fences. Because cats can climb trees (etc.), we will work with you to establish an appropriate plan for your outdoor fence. The fence configuration may need to be a little different than a fence that is only for dogs. Training a cat to use the fence is also a little different than training a dog to use the fence.
How does my cat learn where the boundary is?
Cats learn the containment area through visual cues (flags) and audible warning signals from the receiver collar. For outdoor cats, training is generally done indoors before introducing the cat to the outdoor system.
Will the hidden fence work for more than one pet?
Yes. There is no limit to the number of cats or dogs (or both!) our hidden pet fencing can protect at one time.
