Keeping Your Cat Safely Contained at Home

There are many practical steps you can take to keep your cat safe and reduce impacts on wildlife

Containing your cat means completely preventing them roaming from your property at any time, day or night. This can be achieved by keeping your cat indoors, or a combination of indoors and having a secure outdoor enclosure, or cat-proof fencing around an outdoor area. By keeping your cat safe at home you:

• Reduce the risk of them getting sick, being hurt or getting run over
• Give them a better chance to enjoy a longer and healthier life
• Minimise the risk they will harm or kill other animals
• Enjoy more quality time together
• Reduce the risk they will stray and be lost, be stolen or be impounded by Council
• Avoid problems with your neighbours
