Stay-at-home orders for cats lead to boom in demand for enclosures

abc.net.au/news/cat-containment-push-drives-demand-for-outdoor-pet-enclosures/101516610Enclosures are a way to keep pet cats contained while still letting them have time outside, and a business providing the enclosures says demand for their work is booming.

"We love enclosures from the point of view that it keeps the cat safe and it keeps local wildlife safe … they're not out killing the native wildlife," he said. He is an advocate for making such enclosures affordable but has had a job worth about $10,000, which was completed using mood boards and with the help of an interior designer."That goes through a whole design process.

"We have lots of wildlife on [Phillip Island] and across Bass Coast and also there's a big danger to cats when they're straying at night time.

Cats should never have been introduced to Australia. Now hoping that more councils and shires introduce similar bylaws.

We have cat-netted our entire backyard. They can run around freely inside the yard or come into the house as they choose. They are safe and the wildlife is too.

About time. Cat lovers who've campaigned against roaming restrictions and curfews have proven that they are not animal lovers and do not care about native fauna.

Great to see increasing numbers of people valuing their pets.

Fantastic! Safe cat, safe wildlife!

Only use for cats is to catch mice on a farm. Useless, pathetic animals.

This article doesn't say whether these cats are sterilised or not...it they are sterilised and well fed they wouldn't wonder about as they are territorial... cats should be kept inside at night for their own protection... but yes contained cats in a cage is cruel !

What a cruel life for a cat
