Is a cat run a good idea?

A Cat Run is a great way of allowing cats the freedom to be outdoors, while being contained within their own backyard, keeping them safe and reducing the threat of fights, dogs, foxes, disease, and the most significant risk of being injured or killed by a vehicle.

Cat runs also prevent cats from roaming, reducing the impact on our wildlife.

Across Australia, there are many councils and states introducing laws that require cats to be contained at all times. There may be heavy penalties if your cat is found roaming the streets so it’s important that you understand your legal obligation based on where you live.
