Do you think it would it keep cats from climbing the tree?

I did not notice my cats in the trees with the guards on them. They seemed to prefer the guard free trees with bigger trunks.

No, I don't think it would keep cats from climbing the tree. The plastic material has agrid pattern that cats could get a foothold on and climb.

I agree with the previous answers. This would make it easier for a cat to grab hold and climb the trunk of your tree.

Probably not. If the are afixed sturdily, it might make it easier for them to climb.

no this would not stop if cat. the Velcro is not solid from top to bottom. It I just 2 or 3places along the edges. A cat could push threw if they wanted to.

that is fairly small to force a cat to live in. it isnt nearly tall enough to meet cat's need to be higher than there surroundings. so I would say no

I doubt that it would keep animals away from a large area. It keeps cats away from marking our back door and stored feed in the shed, but they still come close.

I doubt cats would go for it. The magnets keep the flap pretty secure, so an average cat would need some sure footing and real determination to get through.

I would not use it to keep cats off the furniture, as strong scenting oils (also essential oils) are in fact very dangerous for cats. Check out this article. http://articulateanimals.com/blog/2009/10/essential-oils-2/

Yes it can but it honestly depends on if the cat has nails and how good of a climber he or she is. I hope this was able to answer your question.

No. Unless your cats hits the window fairly hard it will will scare him. It's a good item

No, I don't believe that would be an issue. Of course there is always so odd chance of something happening. This is our second cat tree. The last one they ripped to shreds because they loved the scratching posts. One or the other and sometimes both sleep on it every day.

It will keep them directly off the area you attach them to like eves and pitches of your roof ...you might block a path into your home but best to fix the entrance ...or an area they jump from a tree to the roof but they are not much af a deterrent to just keep them off ...you could also put them on the tree or along the top of a fence tp block a path to your house ...but squirrels are smarter than birds if they are in your home try fox urine crystals in a stocking they hate that and they will move on ... you can put that in the crook of a tree or in the attic or hanging from a string

I dont know for sure, our cat is an indoor kitty. I would be almost certain that these Soft Claws would hinder any emergency climbing quite a bit.

I don't think so, John. I bought it to keep my kittens out of my potted plants -- and they had no trouble pulling it off, despite the large number of pins I had bought to hold it down. It's soft, too. - Mary

Great question. Yes its sticky enough to discourage cats from stepping on it. It's also easy to remove off counter tops and won't hurt your cats' paws :)

It would be hard to secure for a cat. They could get out easily & I think they would be scared.

No. This keeps leaf eaters from eating the plants you spray it on. This might keep cats from eating your catnip. But other than that - cats don't eat a lot of leaves

Unless your cat is a lion, I believe that it wil be strong enough. This was used to prevent raccoons from entering patio. It worked!

I have one cat that goes on his tree several time a day and the other one only when the mood strikes. I have mine sitting in from of a window so they like to look at the humming birds feeding, I have them on my outside windows, I'm sure that helps some. Also we have squirrels that play on the neighbors roof and catch my cats attention. But maybe it will just take time. You know how cats are. Independent as all get-out. Patience it may take awhile. Kittens would probably adjust to the tree better.
