Do you think this would work to enclose a balcony for a cat to sit out there safely?

Absolutly NOT, your cat will get strangled to death. I have a friend that has seen it happen. Not a pretty sight.

I think it would work to confine your cat, but if you have concerns about a predator animal attacking the cat, I don't think this netting would protect it. It did seem to be very effective though this past summer in preventing deer from raiding my small veggie garden. I would be very careful at first to make sure the cat didn't freak out and entangle itself in the material as the other commenter described. I could see where certain cats could do this.

The net is not that strong. I would not trust it to keep a cat inside. Cats could also use their paws to possibly climb the netting.

I did try a net of the same material to keep my cats in a certain perimeter, one of them figured out how to rip holes with her teeth. None of my cats have ever got stuck in it though, not even close.

Certainly but if it is hot it will need shade and if it is raining it will need a roof. It is very sturdy. The holes are large enough to allow a smallish kitten to escape.

It is big enough, however, if the cat has claws it could rip the netting and get out. It is more for dogs, because their nails aren't as sharp.

NO! This is not "secure" by any means, and the strength and quality of the product wouldn't even stop a curious hamster. That being said, it's worth the cheap price if it's used for its intended purpose, to stop bugs.tl;drThis product will not hold up to any cat.Best of luck to you!

Cat will be able to go under it and possibly scratch it to pieces. This is more for insect protection

Cage construction would be fine outside - plastic and metal. The problem would be water would collect in the platforms and bottom pan. Some shelter would be necessary for protection from extreme heat and the elements (rain). Ours is used exclusively inside to separate 1 outside (not declawed) cat from our indoor (declawed) cats. We added a 5 foot extension to allow our outside cat more exercise room when he is inside. Serves our needs well!

It should be great for that. There is ALWAYS a cat getting toasty on this mat! They absolutely love it and wish I had found it a long time ago!

Not cat proof. I think a cat could easily perforate the plastic as it isn't very thick. Without plastic, they could easily climb and lay on it.

I really don't think it would work as well for a cat. Since their faces are smaller it will be easier for them to get down into the spaces.

Yeah I think it would, the slats are really close together. My cat can't even put her paw through it. Win win

We have 2 cats which total close to yours and they both run and leap off of ours frequently. It would most certainly need to be anchored somewhere, either the floor or a wall, to prevent it from tipping. Each post has a 2" bolt which holds it to the post below or above, plastic wrapped in carpet/cord. The steps would not hold up however. They are only held by a single L bracket at the top. A screw through the bottom or an extra bracket on the top would help but you need to be careful that you don't leave anything exposed that would cut the cat.

I have the problem with my medium size cat using it. While the side and bottom are secure, the other corner not secure tore my screen and it became wobbly after a while.While this is cheap, it worked for me. If you have a sliding patio door, I'd look into get one of the more expensive doors you put in and slide closed on. I bought one for a friend and's perfect for his dogs. He just puts it into place over the summer and his dogs can come and go all day long.

I suppose so unless they are extremely aggressive. It is made of what seems to be a strong fabric. I expect if you locked a cat in it the cat would eventually rip a hole in it.

youd need a few of them to cover the area. But yes, if it covers the area and a cat puts pressure on it by standing or touching, it should alarm and scare them off.

It may depending on the size of your cat. There is about 2 inches of space at the bottom. Also, if your cat climbs, he may be able to slip under the tarp at the top and get out.

I believe it will work. Our cats, 10# and 11# both fell in and it went off. Also, my husband forgot it was in and just dangled his feet and it went off. We have been really pleased with it.

It might work for that, I use it outside to keep the cats off of our cars and it is not very effective. I think using it in a close proximity would be effective.
