Keep your pet safe and grounded with our Purrfect Fence Tree Guard! Our innovative anti tree-climbing kit uses durable brown-coated metal flashing to wrap the trunk of a tree with a smooth metal surface that cats, pets, and other critters cannot dig their claws into, keeping them safely on the ground. Our solution is meant to protect from:
- Cats/pets climbing too high and getting stuck in trees where they cannot safely descend.
- Your pet climbing a tree near a fence line and being able to escape the safety of your yard.
- Keep other critters and/or some predators (squirrels, rats, opossums, etc.) from easily climbing trees in your yard.
Spindles Used
Type | Tree-Safe Wood Spindles per Tree |
Small Tree (15-27" Circumference) | 1 spindle |
Medium Tree (28-60" Circumference) | 2 spindles |
Large Tree (61-88" Circumference) | 4 spindles |
XL Tree (88"+ Circumference) | 5+ spindles |
The wood spindle is attached to the tree with 3 screws and then the metal flashing is wrapped around the trunk and fastened to the spindle.
