I don't think that protector would work. My grandpa had a cat, who was accidentally ran over by my uncle's car, so she got blind. She was still able to hunt birds while blind...

You could sew a row of Bells to the top of it.

 

How about an Invisible Fence to limit his hunting range?

 

No use. They come to him.
Some kind of Chipmunk Lemming syndrome.

 

I never heard of it for cats. I am not even sure it would work, maybe the cats just would freak out and jump over it.

 

Nor I, but if it can work on small dogs, it might work on small cats. You might want to discuss this and perhaps some other options with your vet. I have never had an Invisible Fence, so I am not all that familiar with them. But if they give the animal a buzz before it crosses the boundary line, that might be enough to keep it inside. Dogs, especially big dogs, get real excited and sometimes run through the Invisible Fence. But I think cats are more sensible and deliberate animals. So it might work better for them.

 

I have just found a dead chipmunk on the porch, probably has been dead for a week or so. Thus Bryce's killratio has improved:

Bryce vs. chipmunks: 2:2

 

It sounds like there is the making of a Stephen King style novel here. Perhaps you can use the experience to write a horror novel and make a few bucks with the experience.

 

We have came to the conclusion, that the damn cat learnt how to open the door. Sometimes for the night I close the door of his room where he has food and a litter box, so he wouldn't roam around the house ringing his bell during the night. Several times by the morning the door was open, just like this morning, and the cat is who knows were. Now I have seen him messing with the doorknob, but I always assumed since it is a knob not a lever, that he is just trying. But all evidence shows that yes, he is able to turn the knob and open the door.

Damn cat.... This is his "you asshole, you really thought a closed door is going to stop me?" look:

Picture of cat in collar, Please.

 

It would work but they are expensive. And you have to take the time to teach them the boundries.

Have you tried a second bell on opposite side of collar yet?

 

Was provided earlier in the thread. This last picture was taken earlier...

No I haven't tried 2 bells on opposing sides.

 

Oh, right.
Thanks.

To keep a cat in a garden, I wonder if loose netting bundled along the upper part of a fence might work.
They wouldn't climb over it I think.They don't like anything insecure.
These people sell it on ebay

Some companies do professional netting, but it makes your garden look like a prison camp.

So Labs are dogs bred to ignore pain? I have friends with a Labrador Retriever who tried the Invisible Fence and it didn't work for them. They eventually scrapped the Invisible Fence in favor of a traditional fence as the Lab kept escaping. Last time I checked Labs were family dogs and have not been bred to ignore pain. But they are a very excitable dog. And yes anyone who would use an Invisible Fence to secure dangerous dogs needs to have his head examined or be behind bars. But we are not talking about dogs here. We are talking about a potential new use for the fence - using it to secure a cat. And last time I checked the cat in question here was not hunting humans.

 

Who knew? Somebody already thought of the idea. They have an Invisible Fence for cats.

Our professional pet trainers effectively teach your pet these fence boundaries and avoidance behaviors so your pet clearly knows where they can and cannot go. Your pet’s custom programmed Computer Collar® delivers a warning tone and if needed a non-harming but effective static correction should they forget or try to test their limits.

"Static Correction".
Thank goodness for that.
I thought it might involve electric shocks.
