How to stop the kittens from wondering outside the house?
 

I baru adopt a pair of kitten and have been staying with me for almost a month plus. My problem is, now they are very daring to wonder around – OUTSIDE my house. I can’t let them roam inside my home due to my dad have acute asthma. So, they are only allowed and stay outside. How do you stop the kittens from travelling outside from the gate? My garden is big and its like big enuff for them, yet, still they want to play around outside near the road. {angry} Caging them 24-7 seems to be mean, but at one point, once I missed them for a few minutes, they start to panjat gate and play out side the house. Actually, the kittens jadi berani since ada this one big male cat always come and visit them at my house (and curi-curi mkn their RC).{scared} I rasa, this male cat mesti dah ajak my two lil kitties pi jalan-jalan keluar. Isk~ what should I do? {sweat}

You must invest in an adult sized 3-tier cage to keep them safe. It will be spacious enough for them to move around and exercise their muscles even when they reach adult size.

You MUST cage such small kittens and let them out only when you are there to keep an eye on them all the time, otherwise you have to cage them 24 hrs until at least until they are more than 6 months old because there is a lot of danger outside your gate should they wander out by mistake and you are not there to rescue them.

Even after 6 months old, it is very, very important that you cage them every night starting from 6pm till the next day and let them out only when you are at home.

Make two levels for the kittens to climb up and down. Keep the bottom level for the poo box and you can put the food and water at the other end under the climbing small platform. The upper level is kept spacious for play and sleep/lepak.

I almost bought it last month but my mom won’t allow it due to its huge size. Currently I’m using the cage with only one platform. My kittens’ age is around 3months and the current cage is quite reasonable for the moment.Maybe once they reached 6months, I'll invest on the bigger cage for their furture safety.

Even with my 100% supervision, the kittens still manage to slip of my sight as their playground which is my lawn is quite big. Their favourite exit is either through the gate’s hinge area or through the back yard’s drain. {scared} When I call them in, aiyokk! sungguh tak mau dengar cakap. xpasal-pasal I have to climb out juz to catch them.{sick}

I came across with this spray – for cat proofing. I wonder whether it works or not. huhuu

Re: How to stop the kittens from wondering outside the house?
 

U r just like me memula dulu..punyalah risau.tapi as long as you treat them rite they have no reason to go out and not coming back..

tu semua berdasarkan pengalaman i ngan kucen kucen i lah, tapi satu bezanya kucen2 i nieh semua memang bukan dari stray..so derong attach with me for the food, the comfort pastue dimanjakan..so kalau derong kuar pun...confirm balik punya..and tak jauh...da lapar..baliklah tueh..{shy}

Nak kurung, satu cara ja..beli cage besar..lain daripada tueh..takder..the spray ..u kena spray tiap2 ari..larat ker...hehehehee i pun kadang2 terlepas kuar gak kucen2 i...sekarang i tak risau dia tak balik, i risau cat-napped sbb fluffy sekor2 nieh... Memang dari jauh nampak lain dah..

I ingat lagi kucen i sekor tueh, i punyalah cari..sbb tempat biasa dia lepak dia takder..kuar umh lompat pagar carik..last2 u tau dia kat mana...depan pintu umah i tengah tengok aperlah tuan dia dok melompat merata2 ..punyalah diva si kucen tueh..kita panggil dia tengok jer..meownyer idak... hehehe{cry}

Re: How to stop the kittens from wondering outside the house?

Hi! Salam! My first time here.

I ada 6 persian kat rumah sekarang. Lain kucing, lain treatment, sebab lain-lain perangai. Semua tak dibenarkan keluar cage kecuali seekor yang pernah terlepas kat vet, hilang 6 hari, tapi balik lepas tu. Jadi, tak takut hilang sebab dia pandai balik dan jaga diri.

Sekor lagi, tak leh keluar cage. Dia akan buat markings, scratch kerusi dan suka bergaduh dengan kucing yang seko lagi tu. Sesekali bagi jugak kuar 1/2 jam bagi makan rumput.

Yang lagi 4, duk dalam cage tapi keluar kejap2 utk main bila kita free. Takut keluar rumah, sebab cantik sangat. Anak dia 3 ekor baru sebulan.

Kucing, kalau keluar, takut accident atau kena catnapped. Tapi dalam cage er, sian tengok. Macam mana ek? {oh}

wah!! kesian gak klu kucing dikurung saja tak tgk dunia luar.dahlah duduk terperap dlm rmh.klu aku tak setuju kurung kucing indoor.aku ada 11 ekor kucing sendiri + 4 ekor kittens yg direscued soon to be adopted. lepas bebas dlm rmh.bukalah pintu seluas mana pun durang takkan kuar.durang dari kecik tak pernah nampak dunia luar selain dlm rmh.klu aku pergi kerja pun durang main2 sendiri dlm rmh yg pintu sliding,window kunci.bila aku balik baru bukan tingkap dan sliding door. the moment durang dengar tapak kaki strangers kat luar dgn pintu tertutup pun suma dah langkah seribu.hehehehehhe!! so peluang utk melarikan diri agak tipis {shy}

Re: How to stop the kittens from wondering outside the house?
 

Pendapat Pakcu ler...{happy}, some cats memang suka keluar, some don't. Terpulang pada kita to train our cats. Tapi Pakcu seram sejuk kalau train kucing utk lepas keluar and pandai balik sendiri. Kat luar tu ada macam2 bahaya (gaduh/penyakit/kena langgar kereta/kidnap), sebab kat luar tu kita bukan bole tgk 24/7 and tak de jaminan. So mcm Chemonk n June, dia train kucing utk duk rumah, that i think is the best way.... kalau ada bilik lebih (like chemonk...{happy}), lg senang, masukkan jer dlm bilik tu dgn toys2 dia org sekali. And kalau nak cage kan dorang, make sure cage tu besor/selamat/selesa utk dia org main-main sekali dlm tu. Pakcu rasa ler, kalau kucing happy kat umah, dorang tu tak kan suka2 kuar (kecuali kucing yg nak mating/gatal.... tu sebabnya paling bagus neuter/spay all your cats){happy}

Re: How to stop the kittens from wondering outside the house?
 

tats why la boo watkan cage besar tok derang....time ptg smpi mlm je derang main2 kat lam umah or kat luar dgn pengawasan boo or hubby....

Re: How to stop the kittens from wondering outside the house?
 

Betul tu pakcu, fia train deorang kat umah jek.. miki and manje memang takut nak kuar... tapi kalo morin and jebat, 2 ekor nie memang suke nak kuar.. kalo time fia keje, fia kurung kan dalam banglo 3 tingkat tu... huhu

Re: How to stop the kittens from wondering outside the house?
 

Pengalaman pahit masa 'izinkan' my cats keluar.

1. Stray kitten baru adopt, blm ada nama lagi di baham 3 ekor anjing liar
2. Mickey di langgar kereta semasa bergaduh dengan kucing lain.
3. Sheera, everyday lepaskan kejap2 dan balik selepas 1-2 jam. Satu hari tu, dia tak balik2 lagi.
4. Candy, suka keluar. One day dia balik bawa kutu dan ear mites, dan menjangkit kat ke empat ekor yang lain.

Sekarang, hanya Minty di benarkan keluar, tapi dia pandai dan tak jinak dengan strangers. Cuma kena selalu bagi ubat kutu to make sure jek.

Yang lain-lain tu, under supervision. Tapi nak juga belajar train dia orang supay stay in house compound walaupun kita tak de situ. Masih mencari penyelesaian.

Re: How to stop the kittens from wondering outside the house?
 

kann kann.. hahaha.. chemong yg stray asalnya pun bila aku bawak kluaq je ramai org dok usya mcm nak kidnap.. hehehe.. baik aku simpan dlm umah je.. kang tak pepasal aku meroyan sebab chemong ilang.. takut-takut kalau yg stray ni.. sebab dulunya hidup kat luar.. tetiba balik ke tabiat asal suka merayau-rayau... sebab biasa sangat bagi kluaq umah... later depa adapt dgn style alley cat.. hoho.. susah beb nak cari balik..

**tiba-tiba tringat game alley cat main kat PC zaman PC guna DOS dulu.. hahahahha{shy}{shy}

Re: How to stop the kittens from wondering outside the house?
 

Yer... memang banyak pengalaman pahit kalau lepaskan kucing keluar. Jalan terbaik sediakan satu tempat or sangkar besar dalam/within compound rumah, belikan scratch pole/pad, toys etc to make them comfortable and feel safe. InsyAllah, lama2 nanti they'll adapt.{victory}{happy}
Betul tu.. Pakcu sokong... Camana ek chemonk meroyan? Ada macam Jamal Abdillah ker?...hehehe{shy}

Re: How to stop the kittens from wondering outside the house?
 

Ada sesiapa yang pernah pasang netting kat pagar rumah yang kat luar tu dak? Effective ke? Rasa kalau dipanjatnya netting tu, leh gak kuar kot..

Tolong bagi pandangan, plan nak pasang netting tu kat sepanjang pagar luar. Tim & Sam skang ni pantang dilepaskan kat luar kejap. Terus main kat rumah jiran. Panjat pokok pisang la, dok check-check barang-barang luar rumah jiran la. Rumah tuan sendiri ada, tak nak plak dia check kan.. :D.

Re: How to stop the kittens from wondering outside the house?
 

setengah kucen yg x proaktif dia x panjat bro. tp 4 certain cats yg aktif dia boleh panjat. tataw la nak kata. jiran umah atas boo dia ada meow 3 ekor. dia pasang netting kat grill umah koz meow dia lepas jalan2 dlm umah. so kucen dia jenis ayu2 plak tuh so xder probs la ngan panjat2 ni..boo plak time keja boo boh suma lam cage besar. time blik keja suma lepas lam umah.
