Although Invisible Fence® Brand
solutions were
originally invented in 1973
for dogs, it was not long before more and more pet owners trusted us to
keep their cats safe too.
The Invisible Fence Brand® has worked with veterinarians and
animal behaviorists to develop a training protocol that is completely
safe for cats.
The following is a veterinary client whose
“clinic cat” resides safely and happily on Invisible Fence®
Brand solution.
-
Bayview veterinary
Hospital, Belleville
This veterinary
clinic and hospital use Invisible Fence® Brand systems to
prevent their resident cat from accessing parking lots, food storage
areas, planters, kenneled animals, operating rooms, etc.
Here are some typical cat-related issues that are routinely
resolved using Invisible Fence® Brand solution:
Indoor/Outdoor Cats:
“My cats enjoy the outdoors, but I don’t want
them getting out and into danger.”
“My cat uses my neighbor’s
herb garden as a litter box. Help!”
Solution:
Invisible Fence® Northwest can professionally design, install
and train your cat to an outdoor system.
Indoor Issues:
“My cat sits on top of the computer monitor…..my
husband is not amused.”
“Our cat likes to perch on
our kitchen counter. Does cat hair contain vitamins and minerals? I hope
so, because it is becoming part of every meal! YUCK!"
“We just had a baby and would like our
cat to stay out of the nursery.”
“I don’t want to declaw my
cat, but she prefers to claw my best couch rather than the expensive
scratching posts I bought her.”
Solution:
Establish “no cat zones” to prevent access to specific pieces of
furniture, counters, rooms, or parts of rooms.
Cat-Dog Households:
“My new young dog constantly harasses by old
cat. He will not leave her alone and she is really upset. She has quit
using her litter box and uses my carpets instead! I love them both and
don’t want to get rid of them, but we can’t live like this!”
Solution:
Use an Invisible Fence® Brand solution to establish a “no dog
zone” in the house so the cat has a safe place to sleep, eat and use her
toilet.
“I no longer have to clean my cat’s
litter box, because my new dog is doing it for me! How can I get him to
stop this disgusting habit?”
“I have to keep my cat’s food
bowl and litter box up high so my Jack Russell can’t eat out of them.
But my cat is getting too old to jump up and down from the shelf. How
can I keep my dog away from Sissy’s food and litter if I place them on
the floor?”
Solution: Set up a small “no dog zone”
near the litter box and cat feeding areas.
Cat-Cat Households:
“My two cats do not get along and one of them
hides under the bed all day because she’s afraid of getting beaten up. I
have tried everything. Finding a new home for one of them is out of the
question, but what else can I do?”
Solution:
Use an Invisible Fence® to establish an “off limits” area for
the aggressive cat…perhaps the entire bedroom where the frightened cat
hides. This gives the frightened cat more safe area and gets her out
from under the bed. She can come and go as she pleases. |
