About this deal

They are great last-ditch deterrents for larger, smarter animals – dogs, coyotes, and cats. Turn to these when your animal has outwitted all the other cheaper options above.

After 3 months of use, it seems to be doing its job, which is why I wanted to share this roll bar fence DIY to help other furbaby parents who are running out of low-cost options.The unique, independently rotating cups, collectively offer an unstable barrier for any would be intruder to negotiate, and consequently a more effective barrier than the older style rolling long tube type systems.

Rollers sit on top of a fence and roll or slide deterring your cat from walking along the top of the fence or trying to get over. They also go by the name “coyote roller”“. Coyote rollers were devised to prevent coyotes from coming inside your fence and grabbing your small dog or cat. Because rollers have been around for at least 20 years for use with wild animals like coyotes, there are several DIY plans and tutorials that use materials that can be found at most hardware stores. Building your own DIY cat fence rollers may be a more cost-effective option, however, it also relies on the use of materials that were not necessarily intended for this type of application. While some have success with a DIY roller system, the use of these types of materials may result in unexpected results and ultimately reduce the effectiveness or durability of homemade rollers.

We’ve looked high and low to bring you some of the best cat fence rollers and cat containment kits. In this article, we’ll cover both DIY setups using PVC pipe as well as systems you can buy and get delivered fast.Start by filling your sprayer's container with paint. Switch on your sprayer and start in the top right or left corner. There are several options to consider when painting a fence. We take a closer look at each one, its pros and cons, and how best to apply. Once you have a clear space around your fence, think about covering the surrounding vegetation (essential if spray painting) and laying down dust sheets or plastic sheeting along the bottom of the fence to catch any paint drips. When installed properly on most fence types, reports suggest that commercially available cat-proof fence roller systems tend to have a 80-90% rate of effectiveness for most cats. Cats all have unique personalities and abilities, and while some cats may try to climb over the fence and give up after a few attempts, others might try over and over again until they find a way over and out. Rollers tend to be best suited for cats who are less athletic or persistent. Additional modifications can be made to your existing fence to increase effectiveness for more persistent cats, such as installing spans of polycarbonate material along the top of the fence in addition to the rollers or increasing the overall height of your existing fence. Polycarbonate is a type of clear plastic sheeting that cats are not able to get their claws into, making it even more difficult to scale the fence.

Irregular shaped gardens are not a problem – hidden cat fences are easily able to cope with unusual garden layouts For this, you will need the best paint rollers, preferably a 4-inch product, a paint tray, and a 2-inch brush for areas that a roller can’t reach.Cats, on the other hand, have very different abilities, as they are able to stop their forward momentum and hold on to many surfaces with their claws before continuing their climb. This allows them to pause and search for the “path of least resistance” as they approach the top of the fence, calculating their next move. Many cat-proof fence roller systems have been adapted from the original coyote rollers with this in mind, and now there are several options available exclusively for use with cats.
