CATFENCE is the exclusive New Zealand distributor of the OSCILLOT® system.
How to buy your Oscillot® dog fence system
The Oscillot dog fence system looks almost identical to the famous cat fence system, but it has stronger axles (made of aluminium) to handle the weight of larger animals.
Unlike other systems, there are no wires, no electricity, and no shocks to your pet.
Of course, it will also contain cats.
Most people install the Oscillot system themselves or get a local handyperson to do it. On this page, we’ll how you how to measure your fences and calculate the components required.

Step 1: Get to know the Oscillot® system
Components are sold in a range of DIY kits intended to cover various length of fences. Each kit includes paddles and dual post kits.
Because each installation is unique, you may need more dual post kits, so these can be purchased separately.
Brackets, which are recommended when face-mounting on timber fences, should be purchased separately (generally, one bracket for each dual post).

1 or more 1986mm long paddles (grey, merino or black)

Other materials may be required to ensure your dog or cat cannot jump over the Oscillot® System. For example, you may need to prune or band trees, or place guards around “launching pads” such as heat pumps or water tanks. Please see our Special Installations photos for solutions to these situations.
If you have an extremely agile pet, you may need to provide additional measures.
We are happy to offer advice based on years of experience.
