Care and repairs

Repairing netting, its strength, and working out how much you need.

How do I repair a hole or damaged section of netting?

Patch a small hole by lacing spare netting over it with binding twine. For a larger area, order netting by the metre or foot. Contact us for significant damage.

How strong is the cat netting?

Each strand has roughly 50 lbs (about 23 kg) breaking strain, and a net tensioned on all four sides holds far more. Stainless-reinforced is more abrasion-resistant.

How much netting do I need, and how do I measure?

Measure the width and height of each side you want to enclose. Netting is sold by the metre (AU) or foot (US), so you order the exact length. Send us your measurements if unsure.
