If you want to give your indoors only cat a taste of freedom a cat enclosure is a splendid way to do it. Freedom! How can something that encloses a cat allow it freedom? Well it doesn't of course. But it does allow a cat a taste of fresh air while at the same time protecting the cat from many of the dangers that lurk outside.
Many cat lovers keep their cats permanently inside their home. That way they are safe from wandering into the roadway and being hit by a car or truck, safe from attack by other animals and safe from picking up many feline health problems. Also of course, indoor cats do not get lost.
The trouble is that a cat kept inside the home all the time is likely to become bored. Imagine if you were not permitted to leave your home. Each and every day you have the same few rooms to patrol, same old same old. Imagine too, that you never got to breathe the outside air, or to feel the sun on your face. A cat enclosure could change all that. No, not for you but for your cat!
When the weather permits, and you are there to keep an eye on things, a recreation time in a safe kitty enclosure can do your cat the world of good.
Ready made cat enclosures are available in a variety of sizes and styles. The designs made of pliable netting are a boon if you have limited space available, they can be rolled up for easy storage when not in use.
Your Cat's Own Outside Room.
The solid wire styles are more permanent fixtures, your cat's own room out in the garden. This type of cat enclosure is usually much larger, with some you can even place a cat condo inside to keep kitty amused. Many have a solid roof, or a solid roof section, this is important as cats need a shaded area when outside to protect them from the dangers of too much sun.
Solid, cat cage, type enclosures can also withstand a large dog, or other animal, jumping on them in an effort to get at your cat.
Most enclosures are expandable. Start with the basic and add areas over time. Want to attach a kitty run? No problem. Want to increase the area your cat has to roam around? Just add another section. With some, you can add a specially designed tunnel that connects to a window of your home. Any time that your cat wants to be outdoors she, or he, simply saunters down the tunnel and into their own outdoor space. Likewise, when kitty has had enough of fresh air and watching the birds, it's up the tunnel and back indoors to pester you for food.
Whichever style of cat enclosure you choose, you are bound to make your cat happy. After all, although you are not giving your cat freedom exactly, you are enriching your cats life. A nice safe area out in the open air, what more could your cat want.
