Comments about PetSafe PetSafe Underground Cat Fence:
Thank you for this product. I have hawks that have taken neighbor cats so I didn't want my kitten going out.The problem is I have two labs that are indoor/outdoor and very use to a doggy door. I bought an expensive automatic door that the dogs could open with a charm on their colllar. First the door would get stuck then the kitten figured out how to go out with them. I was going crazy tring to keep him in when I saw this product. It works great I already had a big throw rug by the doggy door so I ran the wire around under it and it works great. The dogs aren't botthered and the cat can't go out. I am finally relaxed and I no longer hate the hawks.

Comments about PetSafe PetSafe Underground Cat Fence:
First -PetSafe PetSafe Underground Cat Fence for self installation was one quarter the price of XXXXXXXX brand for self installation in Toronto Canada.
Second - It works as long as the battery is good. I have three stubborn,smart Bengals that challenge the system every time they go out and if we forget to turn on the collar or the battery is dead they go out on the town. One boy we have had to turn his collar up to #5 so he doesn't just run through the signal. I hate to do this as that shock makes me jump and scream but it is the only way to keep him in the yard. Right as soon as he hears the warning now he retreats but he has to challenge it every time he goes out in the back yard to see if it is on this time.
Third - We had the transmitter die within a month of installing it but we were sent a replacement free of charge promptly.
Fourth - As regards installation we installed it on the perimeter of our back yard on the wooden fence near the top and looped back half way down. The wire is a little flimsy and I will probably end up replacing it with some # 12 stranded RW90. I broke it in several places while stapling it on but marrettes and dielectric grease are holding for now.
Fifth - The cats adjusted to the collars quickly and with less fuss than I thought.The batteries are expensive here and seem to last about a month even with them turned off when not in use.
Sixth - We MUST take the collars off as the cats enter the house so they don't get zapped while inside the house in certain rooms. The signal travels just fine though the brick walls.

Comments about PetSafe PetSafe Underground Cat Fence:
This product is everything it claims to be. I installed it above ground, then covered with bark. Took 1 1/2 days to complete. My caT was trained after her first exposure to the static. She now comes to me every morning to get her collar on before going outside. She seems very contented with her space and does not go anywhere near the boundry I have set for her. Thank you!

Comments about PetSafe PetSafe Underground Cat Fence:
Product installs easily - I installed above ground on a wooden 6 ft high fence. It is difficult to train a cat! Our cat reacts well to the zap but has twice jumped through the zap zone and onto the top of the fence. I would like to see a wider effective zone so as to get the cat a little further away from the fence. Cats are finciky creatures and any thoughts of training are "pipe dreams"!
