Review on ๐Ÿพ Advanced In-Ground Cat Containment System by PetSafe by Maria Adams

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Useful purchase of training and behavioral aids

Purchased late summer but a year old but only installed this spring My neighbor complained that my cat was walking in her garden. It was relatively easy to install and after some testing we got the collar to beep as intended. We trained our cat on a leash for about a week and our results were the same as others. The cat lay down quite a bit. So we pulled her out, forced her to walk to the fence and then yelled "run away" and pushed her away when the audible noise started. The instructions said three weeks, but we didn't have the time or patience for that. So we released her on her own and of course she got a good shot while we watched. However, that didn't stop her from going outside. She did it anyway and hasn't been beaten since. She stays away from the fence and the white flags and doesn't try to get through them anymore. She stops before we let her out to put on her collar. And although she's shrinking a bit, she's very willing to put it on and has been doing so with no problem since May. As she enters, she also pauses so we can film it like clockwork. There have also been complaints about the short battery life, but we've been using the collar for three months now with the same battery. We only turn it on when she's not home, which is usually about five hours a day. I read that the device doesn't work below freezing, then the cat doesn't want to go outside anymore, so we'll just do it in the fall. It was a useful purchase to solve our cat's problem in the neighboring garden.

Pros
  • Adjustable waterproof receiver collar for cats from 6" to 11 1/2"
Cons
  • Can't remember but there was something
