What is the netting made of? Could a cat claw through it? Thank you.

It's a nylon netting that us durable, but dies deteriorate over a few years of getting direct sun for most of the day time hours. We eventually had used so many zip ties to hold the netting onto the bars. The part that broke down are the fabric ties that hold the netting to the bars. That being said, our 2 cats enjoyed at for at least 3 years. We made our own covers for added shade and I made my own kitty hammock for the tower piece. A few years ago we replaced it all with a galvinized steel system from a company in Canada. Pricey but much better and now we can walk in the big cage and get the cat out if need be. Hope this answered your question. We love the Kitty Walk stroller. We use it a lot.

I certainly am no expert, but I would say no. The netting is probably nylon or another synthetic similar to it and the weights are a hard plastic.

It is not made of plastic. It is a heavy thick cloth material with netting in places. I was worried it might not be strong enough. My cat is over weight but it holds her well. There is no plastic on it. Inside there is a very nice padded cushion for the pet to sit on. As big as my cat is, she even turns around in it and yet the bag does not go to tilting much either while I am walking holding the handles. I had worries about it when I ordered it, but I am satisfied now that I have used it.

No, the material is claw-proof. There is window screen material that is also scratch proof. It works the same way. I have 2 cats and they safely stay and play inside using their claws without any harm to the fabric.

It's some sort of fabric that looks like it would shred eventually. It's not plastic or anything. If they have claws, they could claw it. Truthfully, it didn't last long enough for them to do any damage. A piece of junk.

Yes, his claws will tear the netting, it's not that strong it's mostly a deterrent.

My guess is that it would not hold up well to cat claws. It is a bit silky on the top.

No it's made of wood. It is quite sturdy and I am very pleased with it. My cat loves it!

The size would be good for your cat. My cat is declawed but I would say that if your cat is temperamental he could eventually claw through the net but I doubt that anyone would be that close to get hurt if it was just a random paw swipe.

It's (the nose) plastic with a felt feeling outside. It is not sewn in but it's not your typical flat plastic nose, the base (or the piece that's inside the cat) is approximately half an inch into the cat. Very sturdy. Our 16 month old has not been able to pull or bite it off....lol

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.

I have no idea. Our cats are indoor cats. I know that they cannot scratch with their claws. Do not know if they could grip the fence.

Its like a canvas material. The cats claws could snag the mesh. Go to your Petsmart Or Petco they have the fame type just more money. Good Luck

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 netting on the carrier is "screenwire" gauge so there is room for the tips of cat claws to penetrate. It is made of sturdy construction and should contain your cat safely.

It's pretty thick vinyl. Unlikely to be punctured by a cat jumping up on it and gently using its claws for a little grip. But if the cat keeps its claws sharp and was actively clawing on it, it could puncture.

Wood, a little less than 5/8" diameter. That component is plenty strong enough. The netting will wear through first...if roughly used.
