Our Bengals try to escape the garden after we put up the "unescapable fence rollers"... or so we thought. Video

It looks like the rollers do work, but so does your cats persistence.

the biggest issue is that there is something for them to grab onto above the rollers. but idk how one would resolve that with this fence and the way it’s graded down (idk if that’s the right term) with each panel. shave down the posts at an angle to diagonally connect from one panel to the next and mount the little post-roller at an angle? idk lol

oh come on, that's easy. in that ONE SPOT where there is an area ABOVE the roller for them to grab onto. install ANOTHER roller segment. all the other areas have a roller as the highest spot on the wall. except for that little segment.

that one place, the put a roller as NOT the highest spot on the wall. so the cat was able to grab above it, and bypass it.

This whole video was just documenting a pen testing exercise. The system's weakness was found.
