Is Your Cat Bored? Tearing Everything Up? Could Outside Be Safe
by Linda Cain

Cats have been our human companions for over 6000 years. Although some cats may disagree, they can be happily kept inside all the time, and an indoor cat is much healthier and safer than an unprotected outdoor cat. Be sure your indoor cats are at least able to see outside.

Some cats appear content staying inside, while others will want to go out side no matter how much you try to entertain them inside. But cats are not a natural part of our ecosystem in the US. Our cats are descendants of the wild cats of Africa and southwestern Asia. They were introduced here by the Europeans who brought them over in the nineteenth century to try to control the mouse problems. Don’t allow your cat to roam freely outside — it could get injured or killed by a car, and cats left roaming in our cities have a high incidence of FIV.

Bottom line is that outdoor cats have become a problem in the United States. They pose a threat to birds and other small animals, including endangered birds. They kill over 4 million birds in the United States each year, and they compete with some native predators. Many people assume that a cat can provide a benefit by killing certain animals such as mice, but these native mammals are important to maintaining a biological diverse ecosystem.

Also un-spayed cats can multiply like crazy. A female cat can have up to three litters of 4 to 6 kittens per litter per year. That’s up to 18 kittens every year for a single un-spayed cat. Cats want to play and do what cats are meant to do, but they need to be controlled. Cats make wonderful companions, but owners must prevent their cat from being a nuisance to their neighbors.

If you want your cat to be able to play outdoors, an outdoor cat enclosure would be a good investment. Outdoor cat enclosures provide you with a way to allow your cat to roam in the outdoors safely and securely. Outdoor cat enclosures give your cats safe access to outdoor sights, sounds, and smells. Today’s outdoor cat enclosures are much more than just cat cages. They can be a piece of art to show off. They are outdoor fun for cats and other small pets. Outdoor Cat Enclosures provide you with a way to allow your cat to roam in the outdoors safely and securely.

You’ll want to pick the right outdoor cat enclosure. Make sure that the material that it is made out of has a small mesh grade, and that it is entirely enclosed. It should be large enough to provide the cat with enough space to walk around and climb freely. One big difference between an outdoor cat enclosure and an outdoor dog run is that you must ensure the top is securely enclosed for cats and there are no escape routes between the ground and the enclosure.

The award winning classic Kittywalk outdoor cat enclosures stake quickly and easily into your lawn and allows your cat to relax in the fresh air, watch the birds, exercise and enjoy the sunshine without the risks of escape or injury. Kittywalk makes their high quality outdoor cat enclosures out of sturdy industrial strength fishnet, weaved to a steel hoop shaped wicket that easily stakes firmly into the ground. The basic Kittywalk unit can be attached to a cat door or left free-standing, and it is portable.

Kittywalk Outdoor Pet Enclosures will endure rain or shine — all year round. The material they use is weather resistant and will not rust, rot, or mildew. Kittywalk Outdoor Enclosure Systems are sturdy and help protect your pet friend from injury and attack from other animals. Kittywalk has received numerous industry awards for innovative design as well as being featured on radio, television, newspapers and magazines all across the US. Kittywalk’s outdoor cat enclosures are designed so that they can be connected together to form different configurations so your indoor cat can have plenty of room to roam outside and many different things to do. Kittywalk Curves consists of two or four 45 degree arcs that connect to Kittywalk Systems enclosures allowing you to navigate your cat enclosure design around obstacles like trees. Kittywalk outdoor cat enclosures are fun outdoor cat containment systems that let your indoor cat safely enjoy the great outdoors.
