Does anyone know if electric fencing works for cats?
I have a small farm in a rural area. Due to road construction, they have been rerouting traffic away from the interstate and down my road. One of my cats was hit and killed yesterday during rush hour. I never saw her leave the yard. She was a stray when i got her and absolutely hated being indoors. She has been with us for 9 years and i still can't believe she is gone.
I don't have a ton of money to spend on fencing and i need something i can put up by myself. I'm wondering if anyone has tried electric mesh fencing for their cats.
Im thinking of something like this

If it works for rabbits surely it will work for cats, right?
I've moved all the cats inside the house but my family is not happy about it as they have allergies to cats.
Our dogs keep away predators so i just need to worry about containing the cats. Our current fencing is field fencing-it keeps the dogs in but the cats can slip right through.
