Cat Netting By the Foot Stone | Custom Cut Netting for a Perfect Fit
Our low-visibility cat netting by the foot is designed for cat owners across the USA who need custom sizing, flexibility, and precision when creating safe outdoor spaces for their cats.
Unlike bulk netting rolls, which come in fixed lengths, by-the-foot cat netting is sold in custom lengths, allowing you to order exactly what you need for your space. This makes it ideal for small areas, odd shapes, partial enclosures, and DIY projects where standard rolls may create excess waste or awkward joins.
Whether you are enclosing a balcony, window, patio, deck, stair void, or building a custom catio, by-the-foot netting gives you full control over sizing while maintaining the same strength, safety, and quality as our Cat netting Rolls.
What Is Cat Netting By the Foot?
By-the-foot netting is custom-cut netting sold per linear foot, rather than in pre-set roll sizes. You choose the exact length you need, and the netting can be trimmed further during installation for a precise fit.
Cat netting offers a safer alternative to unrestricted outdoor access. It allows cats to explore and relax outdoors while staying contained within a controlled environment. This supports both physical and mental wellbeing and gives owners peace of mind, particularly in urban and suburban areas where outdoor hazards are common.
Cat netting is ideal for:
Indoor cats who need safe outdoor enrichment
Apartment living and high-rise balconies
Preventing falls and accidental escapes
Protecting birds and wildlife
Creating secure cat runs and enclosures
By installing cat netting, you give your cat the freedom to enjoy the outdoors safely, while giving yourself peace of mind.
This netting is manufactured from knotted high density polyethylene and is pre stretched to ensure it will not sag or loosen over time when installed correctly. It is UV treated and weather resistant, making it suitable for year round outdoor use in US conditions including rain, wind, and sun.
The material is strong enough for cats of all sizes and breeds, including larger and more energetic cats, while remaining flexible and easy to work with during installation.
All of our Cat Netting has been UV Tested and maintains 93% strength even after 10 years!

Once your Cat Netting arrives, install it using the appropriate fixings for your space. Secure the netting firmly along all edges to remove slack and prevent gaps, ensuring a strong, tensioned finish. When installed correctly, your cat can safely enjoy their enclosed area with confidence and peace of mind.

BEST nets ever
Strong, subtle when stretched and wrapped around the porch due to pale colour, and so easy to install. My cats can bask in direct sunshine or be stimulated by nature while everyone stays safe. I'll be back for more to cover the back deck as well. Thank you!

Second time buying!!
We've had our first cat netting for about 3 years and recently had to re do our setup so purchased a littlest extra net for the space. It's incredible and strong. My cats climb on it regularly and it doesn't tear after years of use.

20m X 10m cat netting
Absolutely fantastic for a townhouse courtyard.
Came well packaged and excellently folded for easy opening up and laying out.
Very happy with the choice of cream colouring, goes great with colorbond fencing.

Perfect for DIY
I made a catio wall custom to my patio and the netting was perfect for the custom panels. It cut well, but retained its strength. No fraying or splintering. A few staples, a stretch, and some more staples and I was done. THANKS CATNETTING
