Will the hidden fence work for more than one pet?

Yes. There is no limit to the number of cats or dogs (or both!) our hidden pet fencing can protect at one time.

I’ve used Dogwatch in two homes over past 25 years. Allowed my three golden retriever's during this same time to have full access to my yard. Their service for the occasional minor repairs is extremely responsive. From installation, training all my goldens to service Ed and his staff has been superb!! Highly recommend.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I ordered a new part on the website, but forgot to finish my email address. I received a call from a customer rep and she informed me of the problem and fixed it for me. That kind of customer service is rare.

A ‘cat fence’ is the same DogWatch Hidden Fence that is used for dogs. We just call it a cat fence when we are using it for cats! Actually, the hidden fence can be used for both cats and dogs at the same time. The hidden fence uses an electronic FM radio signal to keep your pet in a designated containment area, such as a yard or specific areas in your house; or away from an area, such as the kitchen counters, the couch or favorite ‘scratching post’ chair, the swimming pool or garden. You can use the same collar with our indoor cat fence and our outdoor hidden fence.

For outdoor fences, a hidden wire, buried underground, carries the harmless, low level FM radio signal around the containment area. Your pet wears a receiver on a collar that picks up the radio signal and emits a mild electrical stimulation (also called a correction) if it gets too close to the boundary. Using visual flags and an audible signal, your pet is trained to recognize where the boundary is. After training, it is unusual for pets to receive the correction as they know to avoid the boundary area. With consistent boundaries and good training, pets can play happily knowing where they should and shouldn’t go.

With our indoor cat fence, the transmitter emits the radio signal directly from the portable transmitter to create an “off-limits” area up to 10 feet in diameter. Or it can be used with a wire that you can hide around your couch or other containment area to create an indoor “fence”. All of our other Indoor Pet Fences can also be used with our cat fence collar.

Yes. We have successfully trained many cats to use indoor and outdoor hidden fences. Because cats can climb trees (etc.), your DogWatch Dealer will work with you to establish an appropriate plan for your outdoor fence. The fence configuration may need to be a little different than a fence that is only for dogs. Training a cat to use the fence is also a little different than training a dog to use the fence. Contact us for more information.

Instructions are available here for training your cat to the indoor fence. If your local DogWatch Dealer is installing your cat fence or indoor fence, training assistance is usually included. Cats learn the containment area through visual cues (flags) and audible warning signals from the receiver collar. For outdoor cats, training is generally done indoors before introducing the cat to the outdoor system.
