CATWatch Ultrasonic Cat Deterrent – UNIT ONLY

£54.95

CATWatch only. Mains adapter not included. Requires a 9 Volt Duracell battery.

Reclaim your garden from cats and stop them pooing, killing birds, agitating dogs and other cat-related problems by using the CATWatch Ultrasonic Cat Deterrent to successfully keep intruding cats away.

Specifically designed for busy people who simply want to their solve cat problems, you can have the CATWatch up and running in less than 5 minutes, providing your garden with cat protection 24/7.

The CATWatch is also the only ultrasonic cat deterrent tested and approved by the RSPB.

Using an innovative infrared sensor, the CATWatch detects cat movement in your garden and emits short, high-pitched bursts of noise, providing coverage over an area of up to 125sqm (1350sqft).

The CATWatch becomes more and more effective over time as the cat learns to associate your garden with the noise, much like a cat burglar alarm or the cat equivalent of fingers down a blackboard.

Delivery is free to all UK addresses (excluding Northern Ireland*) and the CATWatch comes with a 12 Volt mains adapter, mounting stake, full operating instructions, 90 day money back guarantee and 2 year manufacturers warranty.

“The CatWatch will reduce the number and duration of cat visits to gardens and thus may help to protect birds.”  – The RSPB

FAQs

Yes, the CATWatch is completely safe to use if you have a dog.

One of the main reasons that dog owners are motivated to purchase a cat deterrent is to stop their dog getting severely agitated every time a cat comes into the garden and the CATWatch deals with this problem safely and effectively.

It’s usually the presence of the cats themselves that cause the most agitation to dogs rather than anything you use to keep cats away.

A dog’s normal reaction to a newly-installed CATWatch is to have an inquisitive look and a sniff round (as they do with anything new) and then they tend to move on to something more interesting.

In fact, many dog owners actually report that their dogs become far less excitable once the CATWatch has started to work and cats are no longer coming into the garden.

Yes, the CATWatch is completely safe for use with birds and may even increase their safety in your garden.

The RSPB estimates that cats are responsible for killing around 55 million birds every year and the CATWatch is actually the only ultrasonic cat deterrent tested and approved by the RSPB as a method of reducing cat visits and protecting birds.

Many people who own a CATWatch do so precisely because they want to encourage birds to their gardens, without the risk of them falling victim to the predatory instincts of a cat.

Yes, the CATWatch is completely safe to use with your small pets and won’t have an adverse affect on them at all.

While it’s unlikely that a domestic cat will attack small pets, it’s certainly possible and, when it does happen, cats can cause pets serious injury or worse.

Additionally, the mere presence of a cat in close proximity can be quite stressful for some small pets, so taking steps to deter cats from your garden, like installing a CATWatch, may improve your pet’s overall wellbeing.

The CATWatch covers a total area of up to 125 sqm (1350 sqft) and will detect the movement of a cat up to 12m (40ft) away in an arc of 100°.

When setting up the CATWatch, please ensure:

– The sensor on the front of the unit is not obscured by shrubbery, overhanging branches or garden furniture.

– The unit is perpendicular to the ground, not leaning forwards, backwards or over to one side.

– If wall or fence-mounting, the unit should be no higher than 20 – 25cm ( 8 – 10 inches) off the ground.

We recommend that all customers use the CATWatch for at least 30 days, as this provides a good amount of time to assess results and train even the most persistent of cats to reduce their visits.

Many cats have a fairly nervous disposition when they are ‘trespassing’ into another garden and will usually quickly be scared off by the noise of the CATWatch. It can take a little longer for more dominant cats to get the message that they’re not welcome, but they will also learn to stay away after repeated encounters with the CATWatch. Indeed, a scientific study by the RSPB concluded that the CATWatch became more effective as time went on, so it’s important to remain patient and keep the unit in place.

It’s important to remember that most domestic cats have the security of being able to run home to food and safety, so they will quickly leave and choose another ‘easy target’ garden once they realise the CATWatch is providing a permanent deterrent.

Automatic consistency is the great strength of the CATWatch. You just set it up and allow it the time to do its job, regardless of whether you’re in or out, day or night and without making any further effort.

PLEASE NOTE – The CATWatch deters cats by using ultrasound at a frequency of 20 – 24 kHz. This means that deaf cats will not be affected by the noise. Congenital deafness affects a high proportion of white cats, especially those with blue eyes.

Yes. The CATWatch is made in Britain and specifically designed to cope with our cold, wet and windy climate, as well as the wild temperature fluctuations that it will naturally experience when sat out in your garden.

The components inside the CATWatch are made from the highest quality materials and are securely sealed in a waterproof resin to ensure the longest possible operating life.

A lot of cheaper ultrasonic deterrents are not made with the wet British weather in mind and are mass-produced (often in China) with low quality internal components. This can significantly shorten the life expectancy of those units.

Of course, in the event of freak weather conditions, such as really heavy rain or snowfall, bringing the CATWatch in for a few hours to dry out before setting it to work again will help prolong its lifespan. You can also give it the occasional clean to remove any build up of dirt or small insects. Like anything, the more you look after it, the longer it will last and continue to deter cats.

Additionally, every CATWatch comes with a comprehensive 2 year manufacturers warranty covering any applicable repairs or replacements required to the unit during that period.

The CATWatch can be powered by a 9 Volt battery (not included) or a 12 Volt Mains Adapter (available separately).

12V MAINS ADAPTER
We recommend you use the mains adapter as it provides a more powerful (and therefore more effective) noise than a 9 Volt battery. It also means the unit will always be on without worry about a battery going flat.

The mains adapter has a 10m (33ft) lead so you can position your CATWatch up to 10m away from a plug socket. We also have 10m extension cables available separately if you need to install your CATWatch over 10m from your available plug socket.

9 VOLT BATTERY
If using a battery, then we recommend using a Duracell Alkaline 9 Volt battery rather than a cheaper brand or a rechargeable one. A Duracell battery will last between 2 – 3 months and the light on the front of the CATWatch will flash to indicate when the battery is getting low. It’s important you change the battery when required as the CATWatch will not have any deterrent effect if the battery is allowed to go flat.

Yes, the CATWatch is indeed a British product, designed and manufactured in the UK  since 1993!

The CATWatch is the only Ultrasonic Cat Deterrent fully designed and manufactured in the UK and each unit is hand-built and quality-control tested before they leave the manufacturing warehouse in Hertfordshire. The CATWatch has undergone rigorous and extensive trials with British cats, in British gardens and is specifically designed to withstand the British weather. The CATWatch is also tested and approved by the RSPB.

Cheaper alternative ultrasonic deterrents are generally manufactured in China, which is not problematic itself, but mostly means they have not been tested on the UK’s cats, and are often built with lower quality components not capable of lasting as long in our damp and wet climate.

The manufacturers of the CATWatch have a long history of making high quality animal deterrents and are very approachable and welcoming of questions or requests for assistance. The fact that the manufacturer is British means the service received is far more personal and satisfactory than a unit that has been mass-produced outside of Europe.

All CATWatch units come with a comprehensive 2 year manufacturer’s warranty that covers repair and/or replacement in the unlikely event that a unit develops a fault. The manufacturer even offers a repair service once the warranty has expired for a small fee.

DISPATCH TIME
We always aim to get your CATWatch sent out as quickly as possible after you’ve ordered it. We’ll usually send it on the following working day after you’ve ordered, whenever we possibly can.

Please note however, this refers to the speed we dispatch your order. We do not promise next day delivery.

DELIVERY
Your order will dispatched via Royal Mail Signed For Delivery and you will receive an email containing your Tracking Number.

Depending on your local sorting office, you can expect delivery from anywhere between 1 – 5 days. Experience shows us the Royal Mail will often leave Signed For Delivery items with a neighbour if you are not in. It might also be left in a ‘safe place’ or returned to your local sorting office. Royal Mail should inform you of what has happened by putting an attempted delivery slip through your letterbox.

Packages containing 4 or more CATWatch units may be dispatched via special delivery or a courier such as Fedex or DHL. We will notify you if this is the case.

NOTIFICATIONS
We send you an email to the email address you provided at the time of the transaction to confirm when your order has been dispatched and your Royal Mail tracking number. This email also contains some useful usage tips to help to set up your CATWatch properly.

Over the 10 days following your order, you may also receive some automated follow-up emails providing further advice on installing your CATWatch, where to put it and how to ensure you get the maximum benefits from it. Experience shows us that sending staggered instructional emails are more likely to be read and absorbed than if we provide all the information at once.

MISSING PACKAGES
The Royal Mail is usually very quick and reliable and we very rarely experience packages going missing.

Occasionally however, packages are not received. We would ask that you allow 10 working days from receipt of your dispatch confirmation email before contacting us, to allow for any processing delays that may have occurred at your local sorting office.

We would also advise you to check with your local parcel collection office to check if delivery has been attempted and returned to your local sorting office. On the whole, Royal Mail do leave attempted delivery notes, however, we have experienced several instances where the delivery slip had been lost or forgotten.

If, after doing this, you have still not received your order, please contact us at info@catrepellentexpert.com and we will seek to resolve your issue as quickly as possible.

Returns

We offer a 90 day money back guarantee (excluding P&P) if you wish to return your CATWatch unit after you have purchased it from our website.

Please contact us on info@catrepellentexpert.com before returning so we can provide full return instructions to ensure your return and refund is processed swiftly.

In the unlikely event you are unhappy with your CATWatch, please do get in contact with us to explain your problem to see if we can help. Simple things such as a change in positioning or small adjustments to your garden can make a huge difference in results, so we’re happy to help wherever we can.

Please also note that the CATWatch becomes more effective as time goes on. This is due to the fact that the CATWatch causes behavioural change in the cat, teaching it to stay away from your garden using the high-pitched ultrasonic noise.

The longer you allow the CATWatch to do it’s job, the more impactful this behavioural change will be, resulting in a cat that is no longer wants to enter your garden.
