Step 1: Get to know the Purrfect Fence® Freestanding System

Components are sold in DIY kits to cover various lengths.

Kits contain fence posts with ground sleeves, pivoting arms, poly mesh, wire bottom mesh and hardware.

Because each installation is unique, you may need additional posts/arms or wish to include a gate. These items are sold separately.

Other materials may be required to ensure your cat cannot jump over the Purrfect Fence® System. For example, you may need to prune or band trees, or place guards around “launching pads” such as heat pumps or water tanks.

If you have an extremely agile cat, such as a Bengal, you may need to provide additional cat-proofing measures.

We are happy to offer advice based on years of experience.

Step 2: Measure your cat area and work out your requirements

Purrfect Fence Freestanding Cat Fence System

Use the illustration to guide you in calculating which kit(s) you will need.

Posts: Posts should be 3-4 metres apart. Each post comes with a pivoting arm, top cap and ground sleeve.

Mesh: Measure the length of each side of your cat area and then add 10% to each number. Then, consider which kit(s) will best provide these lengths. Mesh normally begins and ends at corners. You can join pieces of mesh together, but this will be done most easily at posts.

Learn more: Refer to the Freestanding system installation page for more details, including how to deal with corners and gates.
