@@teewills3319 Thank you for your answer. I heard that too; above second floor. I thought they meant from the third floor. Because of the sunscreens I cannot attach a safety net. I have to invent something else...I thought about balcony bars or Plexiglas. I will find something to protect them 🙏
@@IsurrendertoGod So, I think 2nd floor is debatable but not worth the risk of vet bill or serious injury. Without seeing your balcony set up, it's hard for me to give sound advice. However, here are some suggestions: 1. If the open space is at the bottom of your balcony, cover with plant pots snuggled together in a row or in the short term, boxes, even blankets or towels--the latter will attract bugs but you could try spraying the area with pet safe bug spray or just don't worry about the insects for the moment. 🤔
@@teewills3319 Thank you for your advice! The bottom of the balcony is all covered, they cannot go through. It's the edge of the balcony that I'm worried about. They like to sit on it, it's about 10 cm wide.
@@IsurrendertoGod Ahhh... In the summer you could plant flower boxes with the underside carved out to fit on top 🤔 Oh...I forgot... On cat TV, I've seen where they leash the cat. She had a good amount of give but she couldn't fall off. In that case I would use a harness and not attach the leash lead to her neck so she's not strangled. I hope you find some thing suitable. May be this got your brain juices flowing! (ha😹)
any highrise buildings are dangerous for any pet ! if you live in a high rise, don't have pets if you can have a garden then have pets, its that simple, animals like to run around and explore and have sunshine and enjoy the elements of nature that it gives them, not sit inside high rises, or inside houses
IF ONE CHOOSES TO LIVE IN A HIGH RISE THEY SHOULD NOT OWN ANY PET !!! ANIMALS LIKE TO RUN AND EXPLORE ENJOY NATURE, ANIMALS DO NOT LIKE BEING CONFINED INSIDE THE HOUSE THEY NEED TO ENJOY THE ADDED BENEFITS OF SUNLIGHT AND ENJOY NATURE
Hi @@britneychester869. My pet snake doesn't like to run around, is something wrong with him? Can you please provide your professional opinion? Should I let him loose outside instead of keeping him in his heated vivarium most of the day?
INJURIES HAPPEN FROM THESE NETS, THEIR CLAWS AND LEGS GET STUCK INTO THE NETTING, WHY LIVE IN A HIGH RISE APARTMENT AND HAVE PETS, LIVE IN A HOUSE WITH A BACKYARD AND GIVE THEM FRESH AIR AND TREES TO CLIMB !
Not everybody can afford that kind of lifestyle. As long as you can provide a safe and loving environment for the animal, there is no reason not to have them in an apartment.
@@supergabee then they shouldn't own any pets as dogs and cats love running around in the fresh air in a back yard, so basically pet ownership is only for those who can provide these things for them. If one lives in a highrise the cats doesn't get exercise sits all day and eats, suffers depression, not interacting with nature, these are animals we are talking about, they are not humans who can live under a roof inside a house, animals should be free to run outside in the garden in fresh air, so you are highly wrong and mistaken !
@@britneychester869 domesticated dogs and cats absolutely can live inside a house. Pets are domesticated (not wild) animals and have been bred to live alongside humans in the same living conditions as humans. Sure, dogs and cats can live outdoors but that doesn’t mean they can’t also thrive spending most of their time indoors, too. Do cats that have to spend a freezing winter inside get seasonal depression? No. They typically do enjoy being outdoors but you can get most cats plenty of exercise indoors. Exercise is not an activity exclusive to the outdoors. As a professional animal behaviorist I can assure you that keeping your cat inside will not cause depression. It will keep your cat alive, though. Cats free to run outdoors live 1/2 or 1/3 as long as indoor-only cats. Plus, expecting apartment dwellers to not own cats is extremely out of touch. Dogs are a different story. Most people who own dogs should not. Working breed dogs need to be recall trained and if they don’t have a larger property, they need to be taken several times a week on off-leash excursions to romp and roam. There is a marked difference in behavior and energy levels when they aren’t able to sniff and explore relatively freely. Walks are great mental stimulation but not really physical exercise for most dogs. Some of the most popular breeds are herding dogs who are meant to be out running and patrolling several hours a day. There is just no good outlet for that can occur on a walk or inside.
Brainiac here is against netting because they can injure the cat, but is fine with letting them out where there are far more dangerous things…. I mean cars just one example. There’s a village somewhere missing it’s idiot 🙄
Great way to keep cats safe when cats like to wonder
Can i use this for my pet bird to prevent stray cats from coming into my balcony ?
thank you for this info
If you live in a pen house but still wants a beautiful view how do u do that ?
Would this work for small or medium dogs
As long as the netting is sufficiently sturdy and the holes are small enough to keep them contained, then the same basic principles apply.
What can i do if i dry clothes in my balcony
Please answer me
Close the door 😂
My best friend just put up cat netting a month ago.

Is a balcony on the second floor to high for a cat to land on their feet?
The video said some thing about above 2nd floor is too high. I would install cat netting to be safe and for peace of mind.

Cats can reach terminal velocity and survive a landing, although I would not recommend it, Felix. I worry that cat netting would trap the cat.
